HOPE FOR DYSpEpTIcS.
A Natural Food That Does Not
Require Digestion.
The Way It IL Done-How Mixing with
Fruit Acids DiKests Food Before 1t Is
Even Taken Into the Mouth.

Natural foods are, as a rule, insoluble.
They must be dissolved before they can
be absorbed.
Digestion Is the dissolving of food in
our mouth, stomach and intestines. IL
is done by special ferments prepared BY
special organs.
A great deal OF energy is used up in
digestion. Well people can spare the
energy, sick people cannot People who
have not sufficient energy suffer from
Indigestion.
It is plain that Paskola, which ia an
artifcially digested food, will save a
sick person great deal of energy.
Artificial digestion is the dissolving of
FOOD outside the body by the same fer
ments that dissolve 1t inside tho hody
Psskola Is fattening food made Of
grains and fruit that has been digested
In this way 1t also aids in the diges.
tion Of other food
Sick people need all their energies
to get we'll. They should take Paskola.
Thin people spend their energy in bust
ness or other cares and worry. Paskola
will make them fat without giving their
digestive organs any work.
Paskola Is an ideal natural fattsninp
food. 1t is more. 1t is natural tonic
food that does not create false new
energy, but helps you to husband what
you have.
Any one who reads the thankful words
which follow will be convinced of the
surprising worth of this great arti-
1cially digested food.
