GET FLESH.
Get Strength, Vigor, Clear Compie1'on
and Good Digestion, not by Patent Meoi-
cine But in Natures Own way.

Get Strength, yigor, Clear Complexion
and Good Digestion. not by Patent incur
cine, But In Natures Own Way.
ANY honest physician Will Tell you
that there is but one way TO get IN
creased flesh: all the patent medicines
and cod liver oils to the contrary not
withstanding.
Nature has but one way to increase
flesh, strength and vigor or nina ana
! body. and that is through the stom-
ach by wholesome food we'll digested.
There is no reason or common sense
/ in any other method whatever.
People are thin, run down, nervous
pale and shaky in,their nerves, simply
! because the stomachs are weak.
They may not think they have dys-
pepsia. but the fact remains tnat they
| do not eat enough food or what they
/ eat is not quickly and properly d.
/ gested as it should be.
DR.. Harlandson says the reason is
because the stomach lacks certain dl-
gestive acids and peptones, ana uen-
cient secretion Of gastric juice.
Natures remedy in such cases Is 10
supply what the weak stomach lacks.
There are several good preparations
which will do this, but none so ready
as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, Which
are designed especially for all stom-
ach troubles. and which cure all dlges-
tive weakness on the common sense
plan Of furnishing the digestive prin-
ciples which the stomach lacks.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give per-
feet digestion. First effect is to in
crease the appetite and increased Wig,

strength of nerve and mcsule Is the
perfectly natural result.
