Outward Bound
Voyagers, intending emigrants to the far West, mariners, and commercial travelers, should, as a preliminary of a tour or business journey, provide themselves with Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, the traveler’s surest safeguard against peril to health incurred in transitu. Traveling under the most favorable circumstances is always fatiguing, and fatigue is prejudicial to health when correspondent rest is unattainable. The Bitters counteracts bodily fatigue and mental worry, neutralizes the effects of bad food hastily swallowed; when mixed with water of doubtful purity, nullifies its hurtful effects, protects the system from malaria, and is of especial benefit to invalid travelers, who often suffer severely during and after even shoit journeys. Persons who use it for sea sickness find that it promptly terminates the retching incident to that complaint, and spee .ily puts them on what sailors call their “sea legs."
