After meals you should have
simply feeling of comfort and
satisfaction. You should not feel
any special indications that diges-
ton is going on. If you do, you
have indigestion, which means not
digestion. This may be the begin
ming of SO many dangerous diseas3,
es, that it is best to take it in hand
at once and treat it with Shaker
Digestive Cordial. For you know
that Indigestion makes poison,
which causes PAIN and sickness;
And that Shaker Digestive Cordial
helps digestion and cures indiges-
ton. Shaker Digestive Cordial
does this by providing the the di-
gestive materials in which the sick
stomach is wanting. It also tones
up and strengthens the digestive
organs and makes them perfectly
healthy. This is the rationale of
its method of cure, as the doctors
would say. Sold by druggists,
price 10 cents to S1.00 per bottle.
