That any sick man survived the treatment of fifty years ago, muBt be considered a proof that naman beings are very hard to kill. The lancet, calomel, cantharides and drastic pur? gatives were then the order of the day. The phy? sician played into the hands or the apothecary, and the unfortunate patient was drenched morn? ing, noon and night with prostrating medicines. We live in a more rational and conscientious era. The importance of supporting Nature in its conflict with disease ts now understood. Complaints in themselves weakening are no longer aggravated by artificial depletion. They are met with TONICS that rally the vital powers and enable them to de? feat the enemy. Chief among these allies of Na? ture, in its battles with sickness, is PLANTATION BITTERS. This wonder!ni vegetable restorative is the sheet anchor of the feebie and debilitated. As a cordial for the aged and decrepld lt has no equal among stomachics. As a remedy for the nervous weakness to which the tender sex are especially subject, it is superseding every other stimulant and nervine. In ail alloates, tropical, temperate or frigid, it acts as a specific in every species of disorder which undermines the bodily strength and breaks down the animal spirits. Wherever it ls introduced it becomes a standard article -a medicinal staple. Druggists, although their profit upon it is small, find it absolutely necessary to keep a preparation for which everybody inquires, and for which nobody will accept a eubstitnte. It is to-day the most popular medicine in the civilized world. Extensively aa it is advertised, Its best ad? vertisement is the beneficial result which uniformly follows its usc. Every bottle sold in? sures the sale of at least half a dozen more. Un? like other stimulante, U braces and fortifies thc system without exciting undne cerebral action, The cheering effect which it produces anon thc mind ls not momentary, bot permanent. There is no subs?quent depression. It docs not, as is the case with all other stimuli, beget a craving for ex citants. On the other hand, it soothes and calms _ j tte nerves,combiniag.strange as the anomaly may seem, the qualities of a sedative and gentle ano? dyne with those cf a tonic and mvigorant. The perfoet parity sf all its ingredients, their admirable adaptation te the purpose* they are intended to subserve, thc judicious pro portiens foi wides, they are combined, and thc scientific skill with which they are Mend? ed, render this famous article at once the most potent and the most harmless of al known tonics and alteratives. 8old by au Draggista. deoT lyr Ololijina, ant ^nntisrjing ?oobs.
