PECULIAR POISONS.
GENERATED IN THE HUMAN BODY

The Result of Imperfect, digestion. :. of
Food.
Every living thing, plant or animal, con-
tains within itself the germs of certain de-
cay and death.
In the human body these germs Of dis
ease and death Called by scientists Pto-
maines), are usually the result of indiges-
tion of food; the result of indigestion or
dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weakness,
does not promptly and thoroughly digest
the food. The result is a heavy, sodden
mass which ferments (the first process OF
decay poisoning the blood, making 1t
thin, weak, and lacking In red corpuscles;
poisoning the brain causing headaches and
pain in the eyes.
Bad digestion irritates the heart, causing
palpitation and finally bringing on disease
of this very important organ. ~ssssaA naAszm
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys, caus-
ing Bright's disease and diabetes. aSs --s
And this Is so because every organ, every
nerve depends upon the stomach alone for
nourishment and renewal, and weak di-
gestion shows itself not only in loss of ap-
petite and flesh, but in weak nerves and
muddy complexion.
The great English scientist, Huxley, said
the best start in life is sound stomach.
Weak stomachs fail to digest food properly,
because they lack the proper quantity of
digestive acids (lactic and hydrochloric)
and peptogenic products; the most sensi-
BILE remedy in all cases of indigestion, is to
take 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 DySnensia
Tablets will cure every form of stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.
They increase flesh, insure pure blood,
strong nerves, a bright eye and clear COM
plexion, because all these result only from
wholesome food well digested.
