They who traverse the “gigantic wetness” should be provided with Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, which quiets disordered stomachs with gratifying speed and cer tainty. To the hurtful influence of a tropic, malarious or too rigorous or damp climate, as well as to the baneful effects of unwholesome diet and bad water, it is a reliable antidote. Commercial travel ers by sea or land, mariners, miners, western pioneers, and all who have to encounter vicissitudes of climate and temperature, concur in pronouncing it the best safeguard. It prevents rheuma tism and pulmonary attacks in conse quence of damp and cold, and it is an efficient defense against all forms of malaria. It can be depended upon in dyspepsia, liver and kidney trouble.
