Man’s Inhumanity to Himself.

The most Inhuman outrages which would disgrace the savage, man perpetrates upon his own system by swallowing drastic purgatives which convulse his stomach, agonize his intestines and weaken his system. Many peopje constantly do this under the impression that medicaments only which are violent In their action, and particularly cathartics, are of any avail. Irreparable injury to health is wrought under this mistaken idea. The laxative which most nearly approaches the beneficent action of nature is Hostetter s Stomach Bitters, which is painless but thorough, and invigorates the intestinal canal instead of weakening and Irritating It. The liver and the stomach share in the benign discipline instituted by this comprehensive medicine, whose healthful influence is felt throughout the system. Malarious. rheumatic, kidney and nervous complaints succumb to it. “Did Bilkem leave anything when he died?” “Yes; his creditors. They’re the worst left lot von ever saw.”
