NEW 1EDICAL DISCOVERY
APosi,Ive Cure For Dyspepsia

| This may read as though We were put
| ting Il little strong because II Is gen.
| orally thought by the majority Of peo-
| pie that Dyspepsia in its chronic form
is incurable. or practically so. But we
have long since shown that Dyspepsia is
cura Die, nor is it such difficult matter
as at first appears.
The trouble with Dyspeptics is that
they are continually dieting, starving
themselves, Or going 10 opposite ex-
tremes or else deluging the already
over burdenei stomach with "bitters,
latter dinner pills" etc, which invarl-
ably increase the difficulty, even if in
some cases they do give slight tenn
porary relief. Such treatment Of the
stomach simply makes matters worse.
What the stomach wants is rest. Now,
how can the stomach become rested, re-
cuperated and al the same time the body
nOurlshed and sustained?
This is the great secret, and this is
also the secret OF the uniform success OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. This is a
comparatively new remedy, but its sue
cess and popularity leaves no doubt as
to its merits.
The Tablets will digest the food any
way, regardless of condition of stomach.
The sufferer from Dyspepsia, accord
ing to directions. is 10 eat an abundance
of good, wholesome food and use the
Tablets before and after each meal, and
the result viii be that the food viii be d.
gested, no matter now bad your dys-
pepsia may be, because, as before stated
the tablets VIII digest The food even if
the stomach is wholly inactive. To il
lustraJe our meaning plainly, if you
take 1900 grains Of meat, eggs or ordi-
nary food and place i in temperature
of 90 degrees, and put with it one OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, it will d.
gest the meat or eggs almost as perfect
ly as If the meat was enclosed within
the stomach.
The stomach may be ever so weak. yet
these tablets will perform the work of
digestion and the body and brain VIII
be properly nourished, and ar the same
time radical, lasting cure OF dyspepsia
vii, be made. because the much abused
stomach Will De given, to some extent,
much needed rest. Your druggist will
tell you that OF the many remedies adj
vertised 10 cure dyspepsia none of them
mas given so complete and general sat
as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
and not least in importance in these
hard times is the fact that they are also
the cheapest and give the most good for
the least money.
