The Unexpected Discharge of a Cannon

Close by would not have a more disturbing effect upon nerves which are vigorous than an ordinary noise upon those that are weak and unstrung. As a nervine, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is unrivalled. By promoting digestion and assimilation they overcome that gastric disorder, which is the most prolific cause of nervous debility and, which, so long as it exists, defeats in large measure the action of sedatives and opiates. Such remedies, moreover, necessitate the use of increasing doses, and finally cease to act altogether, except in dangerous quantities. They never reach the fountain head of the trouble, and quiet the nerves only by paralyzing them. Equally objectionable are fiery unmedicated alcoholic stimulants. Kidney, bladder and liver trouble, malaria, constipation and rheumatism are relieved by the Bitters, which also promotes appetite and nightly repose. Little slots for nickels. Open-mouthed but dumb. Give the jawious school-girl Wads of chewing gum.
