First a Pigmy—Anon a Giant.

We are too apt to regard a small ailment much as we would some pigmy, unpleasant of aspect and prankish indeed, bi t incapable of serious mischief. We ignore the fact that it grows prodigiously, strengthens in proportion, and begets evil progeny. A fit of indigestion, a slight bilious attack, sensations of unrest and languor when the system should have been braced by recent sleep, unaccountable nervousness, inactivity of the kidneys or bladder—what are these but the precursors of obstinate and serious bodily disturbance? In either of the above emergencies, common sense and experience unite in indicating Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters as the best preventive. Particularly should its use be prompt when the languor, yawning, chilliness down the back, and feverishness that precede a malarial attack, manifest themselves. Incipient rheumatism grows apace. Don’t neglect ft. So with constipation and debility.
