HOSTETTER’S STOMAGHBITTERS. Th ' proprietors and manufacturers of 1108Ti:i I EK'd CELEB KA TED STOMACH BIT- * EKS can appeal with perfect confidence to I’hysieians and citizens generally of the United States, because the article has attained a reputation heretofore unknown. A few facts upon this point will speak more powerfully than volumes of bare assertion or bl azoning puffery. The consumption of Hostetler s Stomach Bitters for the last year amounted to over a halfmillion bottles, and from its manifest steady increase in times past, it is evident that during the coming year the consumption will reach itvarone million bottles. This immense amount ' t uld never have been sold but for the rare medicinal properties contained in the prepara- j tion, and the sanction of the most prominent : pl. siciaus in those sections of the country wticre the article is best known, who not only 1 r commend the Bitter* to their patients, but l i•. {• ’ i .!y at «U times to give testimonials to its it;, s»f st«.machic derangement* -e* t .suiting tberelrom. ' . tporayy popularity, obtained j nary efforts in the way of trum- ; ■ f the Bitters, but a solid • n invaluable medicine, which is - enduring as time itself. - '.omacli Bitters have proved •giuns where fever and ague cr bilious complaints hav* .eir victims by hundreds. To be •state confidently that the “Bitters’* tain cure for the Dyspepsia and like . is to the proprietors a source of untiioyed pleasure. It removes all morbid matter from the stomach, purifies the blood, and imparls renewed vitality to the nervous system, g ving it that tone and energy indispensable ?or the restoration of health. It operates upon the stomach, liver, and other digestive organs, mild y but powerfully, and soon restores them to a condition essential to the healthy discharge of the functions of nature. r Elderly persons may use the Bitters daily as per directions on the bottle, and they will find ; in it a stimulant peculiarly adapted to comfort » declining years, as it is pleasant to the palate, invigorating to the bowels, excellent as a tonic, and rejuvenating generally. We have the evidence of thousands of aged D en and women who have experienced the l»enefit of using this preparation while suffering from stomach derangements and general debility; acting under ♦he advice of physicians, they have abandoned all deleterious drugs and fairly tested the merits of this article. A few words to the gentler sex. There are certain periods when their cares arc so harassing that many of them sink under the trial. The relation of mother uid child is se absorbingly tender, that the mother, especially if she be young, is apt to forget her own health in her extreme anxiety for her infant. Should the period of maternity arrive during th** summer season, the wear of body and mind is generally aggravated. Here, j then, is a necessity for a stimulant io recupe- I rate the energies of the system, and enable the mother to bear up under her exhausting trials and responsibilities. Nursing mothers generally prefer the Bitters to all other invigora- * tors that receive the endorsement of physi- ' cians, because it is agreeable to the taste as well as certain to give a permanent increase ©f bodi’y strength. * All those persons, to whom we have particularly referred above, to wit: sufferers from fever and ngue, caused by malaria, diarrhoea, dysentery, indigestion, loss of appetite, and ail diseases or derangements of the stomach, Muperannuated invalids, persons of sedentary ; occupation, and nursing mothers, will consult their own physical welfare by giving to Hostetter’s Celebrated Stomach Bitters a trial. j CAUTION.—We caution the public against . using any of the many imitations or counterfeits, but* ask for Hostetter’s Celebrated SittMAcn Bitters, and see that each bottle ha* th* words “ Dr. J. Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters” blown vn the side of the bottle, and stamped on the metallic cap covering the cork, and observe that our autograph signature is on the label.
