THE OLD WAY
OF Treating Dyspepsia and fndiges-
ton by Dieting a Barbarous AMI
Useless One.
Richmond

Useless one.
We say the old way, but really 1t Is
a very common one at present time, and
many dyspeptics. and physicians as well
consider the first step 10 take in attempt
ing to cure indigestion is TO diet. either
by selecting certain foods ana rejecting
others or to greatly diminish the quantity
usually taken In other words, the starva-
ton plan is by many supposed TO be the
first essential.
The almost certain failure of the star
walton 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 OF
starvation 10 a man suffering from Dys-
pepsia, because Indigestion Itself starves
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
II. 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
wholesome food and Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets digest II for him. In this way
the system is nourished and the over
worked stomach rested, because the tab
lets will digest the food whether the
stomach works or not. one OF these tab
lets will digest 5000 grains of meat or
eggs.
Your druggist will tell you that Staurt's
Dyspepsia Tablets is the purest and safest
remedy sold for stomach troubles and
every trial makes one more friend fer
this excellent preparation. Sold at zoe
for full sized package at all drugstores.
