PosOns engendered by food ferment-
ing in dyspeptic stomach are the di-
rect cause of rheumatism, gOut, brOn-
chitis, liver and kidney complaints,
asthma, pneumonia and many nervous
ailments.
These results are prevented by the
use of the Shaker Digestive Cordial, a
remedy discovered and prepared by
the Shakers of Mount Lebanon, N. Y.

digest other food taken with 1T. Thus
it rests the diseased stomach and
finally masters the worst cases of dys-
pepsia, 1t acts promptly and fresh

DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes Follow Its Ex-
cessiVe Use.

Serious Results Sometimes Follow Its Ex-
cessIVe Use.
Common soda is all right In its place
and indispensable in the kitchen and
for cooking and washing purposes. but
it was never intended for medicine,
and people who use it as such will some
day regret it.
We refer to the common use of soda
to relieve heartburn or sour stomach,
habit which thousands of people
practice almost daily, and one which
is fraught with danger; moreover the
soda only gives temporary relief and
in the end the stomach trouble gets
worse and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical irri-
tant to the walls of the stomach and
bowels, and cases are on record where
1t accumulated in the intestines, caus-
ing death by Inflammation or peri
tonitis.
DIR. HarlandsoD recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stom-
ach (acid dyspepsia) an excellent prep
aratIon sold by druggists under the
name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
These tablets are large 20 grain loz-
enges, very pleasant to taste, and con-
tam the natural acids, peptOnes and
digestive elements essential to good
di0estlOn and when takan after meals
they digest the food perfectly and
promptly before it has time to fer
ment, sour and poison the blood and
nervous system.
DR.. Wuerth states that he invariably
uses Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in all
cases of stomach arrangements and
finds them certain cure not only for
sour stomach, but by promptly digest
ing the food they create healthy ap-
petite, increase flesh and strengthen
the action of the heart and liver. They
are not a cathartic, but intended only
for stomach diseases and weakness,
and will be found reliable in any
stomach trouble except cancer of the
stomach.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsi
Tablets at Scots. per package.

stomach weakness and their cure
