Whenever ami Wlicrovor diseases of a choleraic type prevail, Or there is cause to upprehend a visit from them, the system hIm ultl bo toned, regulated and reinforced by u course of Hostet tor's Stomach Bitter*. Perfect digestion ami a regular habit of hotly are the best safeguards against such maladies, and both are secured by ibis in estimable tonic and alterative. The Hitlers are also extremely serviceable in remedy ing such disorders. If promptly taken in bilious colic, diurrhu'a and cholera morbus, Iii- disease is usually frustrated.

As a family medicine it is in valuable, since it promptly and coin plclely remedies those ailments which are of most frequent occurrence. Th-' Laboratory of the System, Tl e stomach is the laboratory of the sys tem, in which certain mysterious processes are constantly goimj; on.

Moreover, indigestion reacts upon the liver and bowels, rendering the first sluggish and the latter constipated. The brain als? sutlers by sympathy, and sick headaches, sleeplessness and nervous symp toms are engendered. Hosteller's Stomach Hitter- reforms this slate of things, gives permanent tone and regularity to the Stom ach and its associate organs, the bowels and liver, and ensures complete nourishment and increased vigor of the system.
