THE OLD WAY
OF Treating Dyspepsia and Indiges
tion by Dieting a Barbarous
and Useless One.

We say the old way, but really it is a
very common one at present time, and many
dyspeptics and physicians as well consider
the first step to take in attempting to cure
indigestion is to diet, either by selecting
certain foods and rejecting Others or to
greatly dimish the qauntity usually taken,
in other words the starvation plan is by
many supposed to be the first essential.
The almost certain failure of the starva.
ton cure for dyspepsia has been proven time
and again, but still, the moment Dyspepsia
makes its appearance a course of dieting is
at once advised.
All this is radically wrong. 1t is foolish
and unScientific to recommend dieting or
starvation to a man suGfering from Dyspep-
sia, because Indigestion itself staryes every
organ and every nerve and every fibre in
the body.
What the Dyspeptic wants is abundant
nutrition, which means plenty, of good,
wholesome, well cooked food, and some.
thing to assist the weak stomach to digest
it. This is exactly the purpose for which
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are adapted.
and this is the method by which they.cure
the worst cases of Dyspepsia; in other
words, the patient eats plenty of whole
some food, and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
digest it for him. In this way the system
is nourished and tile Oyerworked stomach
rested, because the tablets will digest the
food whether the stomach works or mot
One of these tablets will digest 8, 900 grains
of meat or eggs.
Your druggist will tell you that stuart,s
Dyspepsia Tablets is the purest and safest
remedy sold for stomach troubles and every
trial makes one more friend for this excel
lent preparation. Sold at so cents for fun
sized package, at all drug stores.
