Let Common Sense Decide.

What is the rational mode of procedure in caroa of general debility and nervous prostration? Doe! not reason tell us that judicious stimulation is required? To resort to violent pnrgation in such a caee is as absurd as it would be to bleed a starving man. Yet it is done every day.. Yes, this stupid and unphiloeophical practice is continued in the teeth of the great fact that physical weakness, with all the nervous disturbances that accompany It, Is more certainly and rapidly relieved by lioe tetter’s Stomach Bitters than by any other medicine at present known. It is true that general debility is often attended with torpidity or irregularity of the bowels, and that this symptom must not be overlooked But while the discharge of the waste matter of the system is expedited or regulated, its vigor must be recruited. The Bitters do both. They combine aperient and antibilious properties, with extraordinary tonic power. Even while removing obstructions from the bowels, they tone and invigorate those organa. Through the stomach, upon which the great vegetable specific acts directly, it gives u healthy and permanent impetus to every eufeebled function. Digestion is facilitated, the faltering circulation regulated, the blood reinf&rced with a new accession of the alimentary principle, the nerves braced, and all the dormant powers of the system roused into healthy action; not spasmodically, as would be the caee if n*mere stimulant were administered, bnt for h continuance. It is in this way that such extraordinary changes are wrought in the condition of the feeble, emaciated aud nervous invalids by the use of this wonderful corrective, alterative aud tonic. Let common sense decide between such a preparation and a prbstratiug cathartic'supplemeniedby a poisonous astringent like strychnine or qulnia.
