THE GREATfHUXLEY,
What Huxley, the Great English
Scientist, Considered the Best
Start in Life

The great English scientist, Huxley, said
the best start in life is sound stomach.
Weak stUmachs fail to digest food properly,
because they lack the proper quantity Of
digestive acids Qactic and hydrochloric)
and peptogenic products; the most sensible
remedy in all cases of ind gestion is TO AXE
after each meal, one or two Of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, because they supply in
pleasant, harmless form all the elements
that weak StomachS lack
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will cure every form of stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.
They increase flesh, insure pure blood,
strong nerves, bright eye and clear com
pleXion, because all these result only flom
wholesome food well digested
Nearly all druggists sell Stuart's Dyspep.
sia Tablets a so cents full sized package.

In the history or medicine have there
been so many remarkable cures in so short
q time. One cured person tells another,
and 50 the number Increases.
People come on crutcheS and walk away
with scarcely limp. Nervous and broke
down people are loud in their praise of
Munton's remedies. Catarrh, in Its most
aggravated form, speedily cured. Kidney
and Brights disease yield quickly to these
wonderful little pellets.
