NICHOLS' BARK AND IRON.

Gulf Stream and the climate is much more equable and mild than one would suppose from its location. As regards temperature, as near as we could ascertain, the thermometer for February and March would not fall below the freezing point oftener than one day in ten or twelve.

Atlantic City has an elegant beach, several miles in length, and numberless hotels, many of which are first-class in every respect.

To persons suffering from anaemia, constitutional weaknesses, a low condition of the system, or convalescence from fevers, a few days spent there, with a good supply of an efficient, agreeable tonic, like NICHOLS' BARK AND IRON, would undoubtedly confer immense benefit.

If you cannot go to Atlantic City, because of the expense, of for any other reason, you can still procure a bottle of this valuable remedy for $1.00, which will have a marvellously recuperative effect in convalescence from fevers and anaemic conditions.

G. W. Welborn, M. D. Stewartsville, Ind., says :

I have used the Elixir of Bark and Iron I received from you, and find it exceedingly useful and effective in Anaemia and run-down conditions of the system, more especially in chronic and severe cases of Menorrhagia, where the patient has no opportunity of recuperation between the periods. It is equally beneficial in cases of convalescence from acute inflammation or protracted fevers ; and is an excellent appetizer and blood-producer.

Those suffering from throat or lung difficulties, rheumatism, or neuralgia, will find that Atlantic City, Old Point Comfort, and Norfolk are not sufficiently protected from the cold winds of the ocean. In addition to this, dense fogs prevail, frequently for several days at a time, which is not only exceedingly uncomfortable, but injurious to the invalid and health-seeker.
