A.v INVALUABLE MEDICINE—We have frequeatiy
heard the celebrated German Bitters, manufactured by
Dr Hoofland, spoken of in terms of commendation, and
we know deservedly so It is a too common practice, in
certain quarters, to puff all manner of useless trash, but
In the case of the above Bitters, hundreds are living wit
nesses of tbeir great morai and physical worth As a
medicine for the Liver Complaint, Jaundice, Nervous
Debility, and Dyspepsia, it has been found invaluable,
effecting cures and thoroughly eradicating diseases when
other medicines have failed. We feel convinced, thai in
the use of the German Bitters, the patient does not be
come debilitated, but constantly gains strength and ng r
to the frame —a fact worthy of great consideration. Tb e
Bitters are pleasant in taste and smell, andean be admin
istered under any circumstances to the most delicate
stomach. Indeed, they can be used by all persons with
the most perfect safety. It would be well for those at
fecled in the nervous system, to commence with one tea
spoonful or less, and gradually increase We speak from
experience, and are of course a proper jndee. The press
far and wide have untied in recommending the German
B tters, and to the afflicted we most cordially advise their
use.
" Spirit of the Times," June 24, says :
" Do our good citizens who are invalids, know the ma
ny astonishing cures that have been performed by Dr
Hoofland's celebrated German Buters 1 If they do not,
we recommend them to the 4 German Medicine Store,'
all who are afflicted with Liver Complaint, Jaundice,
Dyspepsia, or Nervous Debility; the doctor hascuted
many of our citizens after the best physicians bad failed.
We have used them, and tbey have proved to be a medi
cine that every one should know of, and we cannot re
frain giving our testimony in their favor, and that which
gives them greater claim upon our humble effort is, they
are entirely reoelable.
44 The Daily News," July 4th, says :
" We speak knowingly of Dr. Hooflland's celebrated
German Bitters, when we say it is a blessing of this age;
and in diseases of tbe biliary, digestive and nervous sys
tems, it has not we think an equal. It is a Vegetable
Preparation, end made icithont -Ulcehol, and tc all invalids
we would recommend it as worthy their confidence."

Cured after Physicians had failed.
Philadelphia , December 27, 1848
Dear sir—lt is with feelings of pleasure I communicate
to you the sanative effects (and in a short time) of your
invaluable Hoofland's celebrated German Bitters, upon
my system while laboring under the Jaundice. About
two years ago I had an attack of the Jaundice and war
confined to the house sir veeks under medical treatment *f
the Family Physician, and for some tune after, w hen 1
went out 1 had to very careful of myself; since that turn
1 have had several attacks of the same disease, a?i year
Bitters have entirely relieved at d cured me in ire "c
three days. My next door neighbor, Mr. JOHN DIEHL,
last spring, had a long and serious .pell of Jaundice; h*
had it some time before 1 knew il; hs teas cerjined to kit
bed. As soon as I heard of his condition I calied to see
him and told him of ihe effect your Bitters had upon nic
in the same disease He immediately sent for a bottle,
and is a/. t c days he teas cured I have in several instan
ces recommended ihe Buters in other cases, always pro
ducing the same happy effect. My wife has betncor.si
derahly afflicted with Liver Complaint and Neuralgia; by
tl.e use of the Bitters she is well, now enjoying good
health. W'e believe from the many cures we knots * I
these Bitters effecting, that they possess in a remauaMe
and extraordinary degree great curative properties, ssd
thai which enhances their value with us is. they are fn
