J. W. Colton's Nervine Strengthening Bitters !
The great Appetizer, Strengthener, and Regulator of the Nervous, Bilious, Dyspeptic, Weak, and cure for Headache. Also, to Purify and Enrich THE BLOOD.
PURELY VEGETABLE AND MEDICINAL.
Prepared with great care, from a combination of Choice Vegetable Medi- cines, as a Family Curative, from Childhood to Old Age ; always reliable, safe and effectual. When they had been sold but a few months, even, the praise received for them was very strong, many claiming "to give appetite," "to correct the Stomach after eating," "to build up and strengthen those run down," Bilious, Weak, Liver Complaint, Jaundice, Kidney Troubles, Rheumatism, General Debility, Pain in the Side, Chest, or Stomach, Neuralgia, Etc. To Pu- rify, and Enrich the Blood, "to cure and prevent Headache," "to cure Indi- gestion and Dyspepsia," also to quiet Nervous Weakness for Male or Female. " They had nerer found its equal." Not designed to encourage or promote the miseries and evils of Intemperance, (the name " bitters" covers many vile compounds thus designed or used,) but COLTON'S .Nervine Strengthen- ing BITTERS may be relied upon for Purity, Great Medicinal Strength and Efficacy. ASK YOUR DRUGGIST OR DEALER FOR THEM.
PRICE, $1 A BOTTLE.

COLTON'S SELECT FLAVORS, OF THE CHOICEST FRUITS AND SPICES.
Introduced in a quiet way in 1860. In 1873 THOUSANDS OF GROSS have been sold to as fine a class of Dealers, Hotel Landlords, Confectioners, Families, Etc., as there is in this country, and in every CITY, TOWN, AND HAMLET, where thoroughly introduced, their DELICIOUS PURITY and GREAT STRENGTH have made them the FAVORITES with those who prize the best and most economical. MANY DEALERS
who have for years sold other Flavoring Extracts, called best, (also those who have sold cheap extracts,) TREBLE THEIR SALES with COLTON'S SELECT FLAVORS, and place them in the FRONT RANK, as acknowledged THE FINEST IN THE MARKET.
IT IS NOT CLAIMED that they are sold at the lowest prices per bottle, but IT IS CLAIMED that ONE- THIRD of the quantity is MORE THAN EQUAL to the ordinary Flavoring Extracts, and they are the TRUE DELICIOUS FLAVORS OF THE FRUITS.
These Flavors cost but little more than other Flavoring Extracts. They are STRICTLY PURE, a Great Saving in the Actual Cost, and you GET THE BEST.
SOLD BY GROCERS AND DEALERS. At Wholesale, in Springfield, Mass., by WEST, STONE & CO., and Wholesale Dealers in Choice Flavoring Extracts. 4
