HOOFLAND’S GERMAN TONIC
PREPARED BY Dr; C. M. Jackson,
r Twenty-two years since they, were first introduced into
this country from Germany,/during which time they have
undoubtedly performed more cures, and benefited suffering
humanity to a greater extent, than any other remedies
known to the public. ;
These remedies Will effectually cure Liver Complaint,
Jaundice, Dyspepsia,hMMriChronic or Nervous De
bility, Chronic Diarrhoea, Disease of the Kidneys,
and &U Diseases, arising from a Disordered Liver,
Stomach, .or Intestines.
DEBILITY,
Resulting from any Cause whatever; PROSTRA
' TION OF THE SYSTEM, induced by
Severe Labor, Hardships,. Expo
sure, Fevers; Ac.
There is no medicine extant equal'to these remedies in
such cases. A tone and vigor is imparted to the whole sys
tem, the appetite is ‘ strengthened, food is enjoyed, the
stomach digests promptly, the blood .is purified, the com
plexion . becomes sound ‘and- healthy,:the yellow tinge is
eradicated from the eyes, a, bloom; is given to the cheeks,,
-and the weak and nervous invalid becomes;a strong and
healthy being.
'-PERSONS"ADV*ArNGEI>-IN-*I-IFE,-
An'dfeeling the hand of time’ weighing heavily . upon them,
with, all its attendant.ills, will find in the use of this BIT?
TERS, or the TONIC, an elixir that will instil new life
into their veins, restore in a measure theenergyand ardor
of more-youthful days, build up their shrunken forms,'and
give health and happiness totheir remaining years.
* NOTICE.
It is a well-established fact that fully one-balf of the fe
male portion of our popuSjSsa lation are seldom in “the
enjoyment of good health; or, to use their
own expression, " never wmimA feel'well.” They are lan
guid, devoid of all energy, extremely nervous, and have-no
appetite.
To this olass of persons the BITTERS, or the TONIC, is
especially recommended; -
WEAK AND DELICATE CHILDREN
Are made strong by the,- use of either of these remedies.
They will cure every case of MARASMUS, without fail.
Thousands of certificates have accumulated in the hands
of the pVopritor, but space will'allow of the publication of
but s a few. Those, .it will be observed, are men of note and
of such standing that .they must be believed.

them further than to say that we have greatly enlarged our assort

safely deiy competition. It may.be well said tliafc;
In Mrs. Sherman’s Corsets, ladies find .
The laws of Health with Fashion’s taste combined;
Supporting equally each separate,part, •
They cramp no action of the lungs or heart,
And no injurious ligature is placed

In all positions there is perfect ease
