people was literally burned to crisp.
The mother threw herself into the burning
building twice in an endeavor to save

GRATIFYING RESULTS.
INTERESTING EXPERIMENTS WITH
THE NEW STOMACH REMEDY.
Not N Patent Medicine, But n Safe
Cure for All Forms of ndigestiOn.


Cure for All Forms of Indi DIGESTION.
The results of recent investigation
have established beyond question the
great value of the new preparation for
indigestion and stomach troubles. 1t is
composed of the digestive acids, pepsin,
bismuth, Golden Seal and similar stom-
achics, prepared in the form of 20
grain lozenges, pleasant to the taste,
convenient to carry when travelling,
harmless to the most delicate stomach,
and probably the safest, most effectual
cure yet discovered for indigestion, sour
stomach, loss of appetite and flesh,
nausea, sick headaches, palpitation of
heart and the many symptoms arising
from imperfect digestion of rood. They
cure because they cause the fool to be
promptly and thoroughly digested before
1t has time to sour, ferment and poison
the blood and nervous system.
Over six thousands people in the state
of Michigan alone in 1894 were cured
of stomach troubles by Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets.
Full sized packages may be found at
all druggists Mt SOC, or sent by mail on
receipt of price from Stuart Co., Mar
