Iron in the Blood
MAKES THE WEAK STRONG,
ThoFcruvian Syrup, aProtcct
cd Solution of the Vrotoxldo of

tho character of an ailment, as
easily digested and assimilated
with tho blood as' tho simplest
food. It increases tho quantity
of Nature's' Own Vitalizing
Agent, Iron in Vic blood, and
curcj "athousand ills," simply
by Toning up, Invigorating and
Vitalizing the System. Tho en
riched and vitalized blood per
meates every part of tho body,
repairing damages and waste,
searching out morbid scare-'
Hons, and leaving nothing for
disease to feed vpon.
This is tho secret of tho won
derful success of this remedy in
curing Dyspepsia, Liver Com
plaint, Dropsy, Chronic Diar
rhoea, Boils,Ncrvous Affections,
Chills and iFevcrs, Humors,
loss of Constitutional Vigor,
Diseases of tho Kidneys and
Bladder, Female Complaints,
and all diseases originating in
a bad state of the blood, or ac
companied by debility or a low
state of the system. Being freo
from Alcohol, in any form, its
energizing effects aro not fol
lowed by corresponding' reac
tion, but aro permanent, infu
sing strength, vigor, and nettf
life into all parts of tlio system,
and building up an Iron Con
stitution. Thousands have been changed
by tho use of this remedy, from
weak, sickly, suffering crea
tures, to strong, healthy, and
happy men and women; and
invalids cannot reasonably hes
itate to give it a trial.

Dr. J. "Walker's California
Vinegar Bitters aro a purely Vog
otabloproparation, irmdo chlolly from
tho nntlvo herbs found on tho lower
ranges of tho Siorra Novada moun
tains of California, tho medicinal
propcrtjos; of which aro extracted
therefrom without tho uso of Alcohol.
Tho question is almost daily asked,
.What Is tho causo of .tho. unpar
alleled BUPCCSS Of VlNEQAH llir
TKits 1" Our ansv6r is, that thoy
romovo tho causo of dlsoaso, and
'the patlont recovers his health. They
aro' tho groat blood purifier and a
lifo-giving principle, a perfect Kono
vator and Invigorator of tho eystom.
Novor boforo in tho history of the world
has a raodicino been compounded pos
sessing tho romarkablp quaUties of Vik
eoar Bittkbs in 'healing ,tho sick of
every dlsoaso man is heir to. Thoy aro
a gontlo Purgativo as woll as 'a Touio,
rolieving Congestion or Inflammation of
tho Liver and Viscoral Organs, in UUioui
Disoasos.
Tlio properties of Dn. "Walk-
br's VinkoauIJittkks aro Aperient, Dia
phorotio,' Carrulnatlvo, Nntritious, Laxa
tive, Diurotio, Sedative, CouDter-Irritant,
Sudorific, Alterative and Anti-Bilious.
Gratofal Thousands proclaim
Vinegar BitterS tho most wonder
ful Invigorant that ever sustained
tho sinking systom.
No Forson can tako tlieso Bit
ters according to directions, and ro
maln long unwell, provided thoir
bones aro not dostroyod by mineral
poison or othor "meansand vital or
gans wasted boyond repair.
Bilious, llemittent, and In
termittent Fevers, which aro 'bo
prevalent in tho valleys of our great
rivers throughout tho United States,
especially those of .tho Mississippi,
Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Tennessoe,
Cumberland, Arkansas, lied, Colo
rado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl,
Alabama, Mobilo, Savannah, Ko
anoko, James, and many others,
with thoir vast tributaries, through
out .our ontiro country during tho
Summorond Autumn, nnd rpmarka-,
bly bo during seasons of unusual
oat and dryness, aro invariably'ac
companled by extonsivo derango
ments of tho stomach and livor, nnd
othor abdominal viscera. In their
troatmont, a purgativo, oxorting a.
poworful influence upon theso vari
ous organs, is essentially nocossary.
Thoro is no cathartio for tho purposo
equal to Dn. J. Walkeu's "Vinegar
Bitters, as they will spoodiiy remove
tho dark-colored viscid matter with which
tho bowels aro loaded, at tho same timo
stimulating tho secretions of tho livor,
and generally restoring tho healthy func
tions of tho uigostivo organs.
Fortify tho body against dls
oaso by purifying, all its fluids with
"Vinegar Bitters. No opidqmlo' can
tako hold of n'sj6t6m thus fore-armed.

Lungs, Pain in tho region of the Kidneys,
and a hundred othor painful symptoms,
aro tho offsprings of Byspopsia; Ono bot

Swellings. Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled
Neck, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations,
Indolent Inflammations. Morourial affec
tions, Old Soros, Eruptions of tbo Skin,
Boro Eyes, ete. In theso, as in all other
constitutional Diseases, Walker's Yin
KoasBitteos bavo shown their great cur
ative powers in tho most obstinate and
intraetablo cases.
For Inflammatory and Chronic
Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Romit
tcnt and Intermittent Foyers, Diseases
of tho Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder,
theso Bitters havo no equal. Such Dis
eases aro causod "by Vitiated Blood.
Mechanical Diseases. Pereons
engaged in Faints and Minerals, such as
Plumbers, Typo-tetters, Gold-beaters and
Miners, as they odvanco in life, ore sub
ject' to paralysis of tho Bowels. To guard
against this, tako a dose of Walker's
VjVeoar' Bitters occasionally.

Bhort timo by tho uso of these Bittors.
Pin, Tapo, and othor Worms,
urking in the system of so many thou,
sands, ore cflectnally destroyed and re
moved. No system of medicine, co ver
mifuges, no anthelminities will freo tho
systom from worms like these Bitters.
ForFomalo Complaints, in young
or old, married or slnglo, at tho dawn of
womanhood, orthe turn of life, theso Ton
io Bitters display so docided an influenco
that Improvement is soon porceptiblo.
