There Is scarcely an adult member of the community, of either sex, in this country, who has not seen the testimony in favor of Hos- TETTER'S STORACH BITTERS, furnished over their own signatures by persons of acknowl edged eminence in science, literature, art, commerce and every department of business and professional life. These witnesses have declared iu the most explicit terms that the preparation is a safeguard against epidemics, a sovereign remedy for dyspepsia, a valuable anti-bilious medicine. a promoter of appetite, a genial and harmless stimulant, a good accli mating medicine, a strengthenei of the nerves, a general invigo rant, a protection against the deleterious effects of malaria and impure wa ter, and that it imparts a degree of vigor a.d activity to the vital forces which is not com municated by any other of the tonics and stoic Bellies in use Under these circumstan ces the self-preservative law of natu. e should teach every rational person who, either by reason of inent debility or in consequence of exposure to unwholesome influences, is in peril of losing the greatest of all temporal blessings, HEALTH, the importance of using tue bitters as a defensive medicine. Dyspep. tics who neglect to give it a trial are simply their own enemies. It is guaranteed to cure Indigestion in all its forms, and the bilious and nervous will find nothing in the whole range of (Alicia! and proprietary medicines which will afford them the same relief.

A Y,Aso LADY returning to her country home, after a sojourn of a few months an the city, was hardly recognized by her friends, In place of a coarse, rustic, flushed face, she had a soft ruby complexion of almost marble smoothness, and instead of twenty-three she really appeared but eighteen. Upon inquiry as to the cause of so great a change, she plain ly told them that she used the CIRCAMIAN BALM, and considered it an invaluable acqui sition to any Lady's toilet. By its use any Lady or Gentleman can improve their person al appearance an hundred fold. It is simple in its combination, as Nature herself is simple, yet unsurpassed in its efficacy in drawing =- purities from, also healing, cleansing and beautifying the skin and complexion. By its direct action on the cuticle it draws from it all its impurities, kindly healing the same, and leaving the surface as Nature intened it should be, clear, soft, smooth and beautiful.

Schenck, the proprietor of Pulmonary Consumption, when it had assumed its most formidable aspect, and when speedy death appeared to be inevitable. His physicians pronounced his case incurable, when he commenced the use orthis simple but powerful remedy. His health was re stored in a vet) , short time, and no return of the disease has been apprehended, for all the symptoms quickly disappeared, and his present weight is more than two hundred pounds. Since his recovery, he has devoted his at tention exclusively to the cure of Consumption and the diseases which are usually complicat ed with it, and the cures effected by his medi cines have been very numerous and truly wonderful. Dr. Schenck makes professional visits to several of the larger cities weekly, where he has a large concourse of patients, and it is truly astonishing to see poor consump tives that have to be lifted out of their car riages, and in a few months, healthy, robust persons. Dr. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are generally all required in curing C onsumption. Full di rections accompany each, so that any one can take them without seeing Dr. Schenck, but when it is convenient it is best to see him. He gives advice free, but for a thorough ex amination with his Respirometer his Re is three dollars. Please observe, when purchasing, that the two likenesses of the Doctor—one when in the last, stage of Consumption, and the other as he now is, in perfect health—are on the Govern ment stamp. Sold by all araggists and dealers. Price $1.50 per bottle, or $7.50 the half dozen.
