TO Cure DYSPEPSIA.
A New Remedy Which Will Do 1t.

Chronic dyspepsia is considered by
many people to be nearly if not quite
incurable. No good reason can be
given why they think so except that
perhaps they have tried various rem
edies without much, If any benefit.
But the progress In every branch of
medicine has been such that among
other things a lasting cure for lndi-
gestion in It's chronic form as we'll as
temporary has been discovered and is
now placed before the public strictly
on its merits as permanent cure for
all stomach troubles or difficulties
with:the digestive organs,
This new treatment is called Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, being put up in
tablet form so as to be easily taken
and also to preserve It's good qualities
for an indefinite length of time.
This remedy has produced surprising
effects in the worst forms of indIges-
ton, and in many cases where ordi-
nary remedies failed to give even re-
lief, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have
fully cured.
The splendid results from using
this preparation are owing to the fact
that it is prepared and intended for
| dyspepsia and stomach troubles only.
1t is not cure all like 80 many adver-
tised remedies, claiming to cure every
thing under the sun, but it is claimed
that it is certain cure for dyspepsia
and any one suffering from any form
of Indigestion cannot fail to get per-
manent relief and cure from its use.
1t is so prepared and the ingredients
are Of such a nature that when the
tablets are taken into the stomach
they digest the food, no matter wheth-
er the stomach is in working order or
not. You get sustenance and strength
to mind and body by reason of the
food being properly dlgested and at
the same time the much abused stom-
ach is allowed to rest and recuperate.
Notwithstanding the great benefits
to be derived from Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, the price is but SO cents for
full sized package and all druggists
sell them.

Co., Marshall, Mich.
