Biliousness, nervous tremors, constipation, headache . | and terrible mental disturbances are among its usual accompaniments. In fact, ovory organ, every fibre of the frame sympathizes with the debilitated slid diseased stomach. What is needed in such a case? Clearly an alterativo and invigorunt; and among medicines of that class, Hostettor's Stomach Bitters is, boyond all comparison or estimate, tho best. Mere purgatives only deprive the system of the little strength that disease has left it. Salivants have the same effect The whole internal organism has gone wrong, and can only be put right and kept right by a medicine in which the tonic and stimulating elements pre? dominate, but are qualified and modi? fied by anti-bilious uperients and blood purifying components. Now, the truth is, (and tho medical faculty as well as tho Smblic know the fact,) that Hostetter's litters contain every ingredient requi? site for the cure of dyspepsia and all the ailments of body and mind which it in? volves. This has been proved in so many thousands of instances that it seems almost idle to repeat the statement. The great tonic rallies exhausted na? ture, from whatever cause enfeebled, and permanently recruits the vigor of the nerves, the muscles and the brain. Its effect upon the brain id to give strength to the will and precision to the judg? ment, and to banish despondency and that infirmity of purpose which generally accompanies bodily weakness.
