The Wealth of the Nation.

The wealth of the United States as
fixed by the last census is 107 billion
dollars, a sum so vast as to be i'm.
possible of comprehension. 1t is more
than the combined wealth of France.
Germany and Russia, and twice that
of Great Britain and Ireland. 1t is
also impossible to comprehend the
curative powers of Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters until you have given it a
fair trial. Then you'll realize what a
wonderful remedy it is for curing and
preventing dyspepsia, indigestion, con-
stipation, biliOusness, insomnia. poor
appetite. female ills or malarial fever.
1t is also excellent for restoring
strength after the system has beea
weakened by a long sick spell. We
guarantee it absolutely pure, so no
one need hesitate in trying bottle
today Your druggist, grocer or dealer
will supply you with the genuine.
