The greatest nourishing tonio, appetizer, strengthener and curative on earth. Hop Bitters. See 165 Good for Babies, — "We are pleased to say that our baby was permanently cured of a serious protracted irregularity of the bowels bj the use of Hop Bitters by its mother, which at the same time restored her to perfect health and strength."— The Parents. See. 137 " Advice is often seen, by blunting us, to mate our wits more keen." But how seldom ia advice taken.

A few Pills taken at bedtime act as alteratives and aperients ; they not only relieve the bowels, but regulate every organ connected with them, overcome all acrid humors, and encourage a free supply of all the secrebiona essential to our well being. Holloway'a Pills thoroughly cleanse and perfectly regulate the circulation, and beget a feeling of comfort in hot climates ani high temperatures, which is most desirable for preservation of health.— fADVr]. 300
