the now, and worse still. IL mixes W..
the scanty supply and thus dilutes and
alters IT, -
Scieace now says that II the stomach
Is all right all the organs will be
right, because IL is impossible for them
TO stay out of order long when the stom-
ach does its duty. A weakened organ il
simply am organ out OF repair, and IL
will not stay out OF repair IL the diges-
tion Is right. The sober. common sense
Judgment of every one probably tells
them that III they could eat heartily OF
nutritious food and then perfectly di-
gest II, they would get strong and well.
When your health suffers think OF
your digestion. II that is faulty there
probably lies the whole cause OF trou-
BILE. One thing Is certain, no perma-
nent relief can be looked for until the
stomach is made right. IL you find a
remedy that will give you sound di-
gestion you Will not have TO do any,
thing else. Nature will do the rest.
Modern research shows that an effec-
tive stomach remedy must do these
things:
II must strengthen the muscular
walls OF the stomach, giving them the
power OF contraction necessary for the
proper kneading and mixing OF the
food. II must reduce all Inflammation
and stop the secretion OF mucus so that
there may be free flow OF gastric Juice.
IL should also stimulate the secretion
OF digestive fluids so that at all times
there viii be an adequate supply for
the prompt digestion OF food
Thousands OF people are saying that
Puritana, DIR. Dixi Crosby's great for
mula. is just such remedy. 1t relieves
catarrhal conditions of the stomach I'm
twenty-four hours; causes an abund-
ant secretion OF gastric JUICE. and thus
hastens the digestion End absorption OF
food. AS a result, all the organs receive
proper nutrition and the patient is not
only relieved of stomach troubles, but
"cured from head to foot"
