The in n . pie therapeutics o f the Patriarchical era, when herbs “ for healing the na­ tions” were the only medicine in ose, find little favor with the medical profes. sion o f the day. Y et at the earty pe­ riod o f the world’s history the ordinary term o f human life was at least eight times longer than it is now. I t is there­ fore manifest that the stamina o f man has seriously declined in the lapse o f ages. It is a scientific fact that, during thin process o f human degeneration and de* cay an immense number o f powerful poisons have been introduced into tbe medical repertoire, while tbe mild veg­ etable system o f treatment exclusively practiced when the world was young, lias been in a great measure abaudoned by the medical profession. This is a singular coincidence, and it suggests the possibility ot a direct connection be. tween the physical deterioration o f the species, and the wholesale administra, tiou o f deadly mineral and other drugs. It may well be doubted whether the mineral salts and oxyds, and the no less dangerous alkaloids, wh:ch chemistry has added to the pharmacopoeia, have uot destroyed more lives than all the diseases they have been prescribed to cure. One thing, at least, is certain— viz : that the average term o f human existence has been shortened since the days when the vegetable kingdom was the only medical dispensary known to mankind. The truth is— and sensible people are becoming more alive to it every day— that the world is overdoctored. T ho principles of medication are sim ple; but they have been so befogged by tcch. idealities, so mystified by profes ional verbiage, that one half the community fancy thev can neither be interpreted nor applied except by persons who h »ve been taught to clothe the living truths o f ,-cicnce in dead languages. It is not to the interest o f “ the Faculty” that the theory and practice o f medicino should he simplified and popularized , and therefore the public conceive but ittle light from that quarter. To ¡ lvvcnt crime is one o f the great i nds o f civil law, and to prevent disease should bt? one o f the grand objects o f mcuical science, ll is better to protect than to cure, and much easier. Vital power is the natural autagonist o f all the influences that militate against health — whether they exist in the air wo breathe, in the water we diink, or tho objects with which we come ¡»co n ta ct, or in ourselves. W ithout a sufficiency o! this resistant principle, there can be no reasonable hope o f escaping prevail­ ing epidemics, or o f enjoying even uu- dor the most lavorablc external circum- -tanec’*. an immunity from sickness and pain. This fact being established, the next question is, how shall a deficiency in physical and constitutional vigor be supplied ? Instructed by the experi- en. o o f twenty years, and sustained by the testimony o f thousands o f individ­ uáis of both sexes; hailing from all parts o f the world, we reply that Ilostettcr’s Stomach Bitters is the only medieuno that can be fully relied ou as a protec­ tive and preventative tonic and alterna­ tive in all climates and under all con­ tingencies. Wi t h a system strength­ ened and fortified by the use o f this in. vigorant, no one who possesses common prudence need fear the effects o f mal­ aria. It is the best safeguard against iufection at present known. It produces appetite ; it proumies digestion ; it pre­ vents constipation : it regulates the flow o f bile ; it strengthens the nerves, it purifies the animal fluids; it clears tho braiu; and, the vehicle o f its medical properties being a pure diffusible stim­ ulant, their influence is extended to every portion o f the system. Mero alcoholic stimulants, though administer­ ed largely in medical practice, are not iu themselves medicines ; but they per­ vade the whole organization more cer­ tainly and swiftly than anything else tnat can be given. They are quickly taken up by the absorbents, and there is not a fiber o f the body between tho crown ot the head and the sole o f the foot whieh is exempted from their in­ fluence. Hence a spiritous stimulant is the best medium for conveying to all the organs and members o f a leehle o* disordered system the ipeans whereby that system is to be recruited and reg­ ulated. It is for this purpose that the? alcoholic elements is used in the pre­ paration of Hostcttev’s Stomach Bitters.. It is simply the instrument by which, the medical virtues o f the preparation are carried to their objective points and, rendered active. It is almost necessary to call the attention o f ’ dyspeptics io a medicine which is everywhere recognized as the standard specific for Indiges­ tion. In every town in the United States which contains a drug store, or a store in which drugs are sold, it is known as a remedy for stomach complaints o f every class, from simple flatuleui cy up to the most obstinate chronic torpidity of that most important organ. Its anti-bilious properties are also universally understood ana appreciated Í and in the West and South-west the old “ Ague cures'4 have been jgenacally abandoned, and this real chologog— which ac­ tually breaks up intermittent fever within a week after the first dose is taken— adopted in their stead. In the intermittent fevers to com ­ mon in malarious districts during the fall of- the year it is proved equally efficacious, and it may be truly said that it combines in an equal degree the qualities o f a restorative and a nre, ventative.
