nKEVENITVE MEDICATION.—Arad- 
* leal change lias boon introduced in the prac¬ 
tice of rnadicine. Physicians have ceased to tor¬ 
ture nnd prostrate their patients. Instead of 
pulling down, they build up; Instead of assault¬ 
ing nm me, they assist her. Cupping, leeching, 
blistering, venesection, calomel, antimony, stu- 
pifylng narcotics, and rasping purgatives, once 
tlie favorite resources of the faculty, are now 
rarely resorted to even by the most dogmatic 
members of Hie profession. The old creed was 
that disease was something which must lie ex¬ 
pelled by violent art ificial means, irrespective of 
the wear and tear of flic vital organization In the 
process. Thoncwerced recognizes! lie improve¬ 
ment of the general health as essential to the 
euro of all local ailments. Hence it is that lios- 
tettor’6 Stomach Hitters, the most poLcut vege¬ 
table tonic that, pharmacy ha* e ver brought to 
the assistance of nature in her struggles with dis¬ 
ease, has been cordially approved L>.y practition¬ 
ers of Hit? modern school. It ispleiman t to reflect 
that reason and phlhiBophy haveat Ilist boon vic- 
torinusovdr the emirsof the past,mid that thou¬ 
sand-, and tons of thousands of human 1 icings 
are alive and well to-day who would Indubitably 
be-mouldering in I heir groves, had rhov been 
subjected to the pains and penalties which were 
deemed orilmdux and indispensable thirty or 
forty years ago. 
Preventive medication was scarcely thought of 
•hen; but now it is considered of'paramount 
importance, mu] tha celebrity of llw standard 
invigorate, alterative and restorative of tin- age, 
(a tide which Hnstetter'a Billers have fairly 
earned by their long career nr success,) Is mainly 
duo in its effleienuy as n protective preparation. 
A course of the J til tors is urgently recommend¬ 
ed as a Hidu and certain nniid.de to intermittent 
and remittent lovers, diarrhea, dvseutery aud 
other maladies.
