Yet there are thousands whose habitual condition ls one of languor and debility. They complain of no speci? fic disease; they suffer no positive pain, but they have no relish for anything which affords mental or sensuous pleasure to their more robust and energetic fellow-beings. In nine cases out of ten this state of lassitude and torpor arises from a morbid stomach. Indi? gestion destroys the energy of both mind and body. When the waste of. nature ls not supplied by a due and regular assimilation of the food, every organ ls starved, every function inter? rupted. Now, what does common sense suggest under these circumstances of depression ? The system needs musing and strengthening; not merely for an hour or two, to sink afterward Into a more pitiable condition than ever (as it assuredly would do ir an ordinary alcoholic stimulant were resort? ed to,) but radically and permanently. How ls this desirable object tobe accomplish? ed ? The answer to this question, founded on the unvarying experience of a quarter of a century, ls easily given. Infuse new vigor Into the diges? tive organs by a course Of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Do not waste time in administering tem? porary remedies, but wake the system up by re? cuperating- the fountain-head of physical strength and energy, the great organ upon which all the other organs depend for .their nurture and sup? port. By the time that a dozen doses of the great vegetable tonic and lnvigorant have been taken the reeble frame of the dyspeptic will begin to feel its benign Influence. Appetite will be created, and with appetite the capacity to digest what it craves.

I. pa THE THREE DYSPEPTICS.-j Here is on extract from a letter received by Messrs, DRAKE A CO., Novembers, 1869: "Three friends met one day in the latter part or last Sep. tember In the rotunda or the Astor House. Your j correspondent was one or the three. We were all suffering from the 'national disease'-indiges? tion; and all agreed on one point, viz: that noth? ing agreed with ns. We discussed medicines. One had tried blue pills, another extractor dandelion, auother almost every variety or purgatives. In fact, we had made apothecaries* shops or our in? sides; hut nothing had done us any good. I said I wondered If your PLANTATION BITTERS would help us any. After some talk we concluded to try lt, and meet again at the same place that day month to compare notes. We did so. It was a jovial meeting, I can tell you. We scarcely knew one another. Each had gained flesh; each re ported a good appetite, sound sleep, an easy stomach and a regular habit of body. The change was marvellous. It was agreed to report the facts to you, and I wa-i appointed to make this communication. You can publish it If you choose, and refer all sceptics for particulars to Yours truly, ALBERT W. SHAW, No. 549 Downing street, New York."

CCREB CHOLIC, CHOLERA INFANTUM, DYSENTERY, AND ALL DI8EASES TO WHICH CHILDREN ARB SUBJECT WHEN TEETHING. CONTAINS NO ANODYNE. RUSSELL'S SOOTHING CORDIAL is offered to the public with an absolute guarantee against aU danger from its use. Read the following certifi? cates: CHARLESTON, May 16, 1868. Mr. J. B. RUSSELL, one of our careful and intel? ligent Pharmaceutists and Apothecaries, has sub? mitted to my examination the formula for the preparation of a Soothing Cordial prepared and vended by l?m. It affords me pleasure to express a favorable opinion of its safe and efficient adaptation to the particular cases of the diseases of children, which ft ls designed to relieve. E. GEDDINGS, M. D. Having had occasion to prescribe RUSSELL'S Soothing Cordial m severe cases or Bowel Oom Plaints In children and delicate females, I have een much pleased with Its effects. I consider lt a valuable medicine in all cases, in which lt may be advisable to avoid the use of anodyne, and par? ticularly for family use, as lt ls perfectly safe. W. T. WRAGG, M. D. CHARLESTON, S. C., 1863. Dear Slr-I have used your Soothing Cordial for Diarrhea In teething children, and find lt a very excellent preparation, lt hos a great advantage over most preparations of the kind m containing no Opium or Narcotic. When these are required they can be added lu proportions applicable to the case. I therefore can recommend Its use In the affec? tions for which it ls designed. Respectfully yours, Ac. T. L. OG1ER, M. D. CHARLESTON. S. C.. 1868. ? certify that I have most successfuUy used RUSSELL'S Soothing Cordial In the Summer Com? plaints of Infants. He has fully exhibited the In? gredients of bis remedy, and the tedious method of preparation. I recognize the prescription containing no anodyne whatever-as a most safe and efficacious one in bowel affections of children. When much pain or restlessness attends the affec? tion, doses of Paregoric can be added to the pre ?Cribed doses of the Cordial according to the age or the patient. The compound, though more often, acts In an efficient manner without any ad? dition of anodyne. In the Diarrhoea of the aged, In increased doses, lt ls of great value as a remedy; never disagree? ing with the stomach-Increasing appetite, Im? proving digestion, and acting as a slow but effi? cient astringent agent. W. M. FITCH, M. D. MOUNT PLEASANT, S. C., 1868. Jl?r. J. B. Russell : DEAR SIR-I have used your Soothing Cordial for children extensively in my practice, and most cheerfully testify to its merits. I have found lt, without an exception, to accomplish all lt claims, and cousHer lt superior to anything In use for children. Its freedom from ano lyne of any kind recom? mends it as a perfectly safe preparation in the hands of mothers and inexperienced nurses. Very respectfully, Ac. D. R. WILLIAMS, M. D. Made by J. B.
