The authorship of the dramatic pro
ductions attributed to the last ef the
above named is agitation literary circles
to tbe very centre, but affects the practi
cal masses far less than the momentous
question, bow to regain or preserve
health, thnt essential of bodily and men
tal aotivity, business soocesl and the
"pursuit of happiness." We can throw
far more light on this latter subject than
the most profound Shakespearian can
no the nuestion first oropoundod. If the
system is depleted, the nerrea shnky; if
indigestion or constipation bothers one
at times, or constantly ; if the skiD is
vullow and tongue fnrred as in bilious
ness; if there are premonitory twinges
ot oncoming rheumatism or neuralgia;
if r,hn liidnevs are inactive nee Hos
tetter' Stomach Bitters, the finest recu
nnrnnt of an ace nrohflc in benefioial and
successful remedies. Remember, if
malaria threatens or afflicts, that it neu
tralizes the poison und fortifies the sys
