Nervous Indigestion.

The prime cause OF most OF the nerv-
GUS disorders and ailments with which
humanity is afflicted may be traced to
indigestion. The irritable man, the un-
happy woman, the fretful child, contrive
to make all around them miserable.
They dose themselves for nervousness,
and perhaps find temporary relief, only
to grow more nervous when the newt
able reaction comes. 1t is in such cases
that S. S. S. gives almost immediate re-
lief. 1t builds up the entire system,
purifies the blood, gives tone to the di-
gestive organs, restores the functions OF
the stomach, gives activity to the liver,
and puts all the nerves in tune with
health and good humor. II is nature g
great remedy, and never fails to give
relief.
