Professional opinions are not infallible; and
they araoever wider of the mark than when
they pronounce chronic dyspepsia eo in
curable malady. To anUigate its pangs the
faoulty usually prescribe air, exercise, and
brandy. The first two are God's tnedi-
oioes. The last is a satanio poison. The
only medicine needed in Dyspepsia and its
concomitants, is Dr. J. Walker's Cali
fornia Vinegar Bitters, the great vegetable
tonio of the age.
