R a blcsbing for which thousands of our dyspeptic countryman nnd women nigh in vain , and to obtain which swallow much mcdiuino umivailingly.

The man of humbug is constantly glutted with the dollars and dimes of those who resort to ono nostrum aflor another in the vain liopo of obtaining relief , at least , from tnis vexatious and obstinnto malady. Experience indicates llostot- tor's Stomach Bitters as a means of eradicating dyspepsia , in which a firm reliance can bo placed. No remedy has in three decades and over established such n reputation , none has received such unqualified professional sanction. It is an admirable invigorant , bccauso it en riches the blood , and not only this , but it thoroughly regulates the bowels , kidneys and bladder. Thu nervous symptoms are usually relieved by the medicine. KBTATF- Trnnsfors Filed Auc"nt 17. 1887.
