18 NEW-ORLEANS ADVERTISEMENTS.
A R 9 Y, BITTERS.
ThE increasing sale of these justly celebrated BITTERS speaks volumes in their favor.
During the past twelve months over 50,000 bottles have been sold, and. this demad has been
created entirely by the true merit of their healing and strength-restoring virtues, adapted as they
so particularly are, to the wants of our Southern country, being manufactured from the best ma-
terial after a recipe approved of by some of.the most celebrated physicians of New-Orleans to
whom the proprietors are under many obligations for some valuable suggestions in regard to their
preparation.
It must then be apparent to any reflecting mind that-these invaluable Bitters should meet the
requirements of this climate more effectually than those concocted in a different latitude, every
portion of our country having diseases peculiar to its own geographical position.
THE ARGYLE BITTERS
Will strengthen and invigorate the entire system, and effectually cure Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint,
Nervous Debility, Disordered Stomnach; Disgust for Food, Heartburn, Loss of Appetite, General
Debility, and Prostration of the System.
They are entirely vegetable, and free from all injurious ingredients. They are pleasant in taste,
and mild in their effects, keeping the bowels gently acted upon, and removing all impurities from
the stomach.
Persons advanced in life, and feeling the hand of time weighing heavily upon them with all its
attendant ills, will find in the use of these agreeable aromatic Bitters an elixir that will instil new
life into their veins, restore in a measure the energy and ardor of more youthful days, build up
their shrunken forms, and give health and happiness to their remaining years.
It is a well-established fact, that fully one half of the female portion of our population are sel-
dom in the enjoyment of good health, or, to use their own expression, "Never feel well'' They
are languid, devoid of all energy, extremely nervous, and have no appetite. To this class of in-
valids these Bitters are especially recommended.
Their peculiar tonic and invigorating properties render them invaluable in such cases.
Persons visiting districts harassed annually with Fever and Ague, or any fever of a bilious
nature, will find that by the timely ise of one. or two bottles they will not in one instance take the
disease, as the Bitters will renovate and strengthen the system, and carry off the bile in its natural
channel.
Put up in quart bottles.
Price9 One Dollar per Bottle.
