A Valuable Little Book Sent Free fot the
Asking,
Medical books are not always inter-
estiug reading, especially TO people
enjoying good health but as matter
of fact scarcely one person in ten is
perfectly healthy, and even with such,
sooner or later sickness must come.
1t is also a we'll established truth
that nine-tenths of all diseases origi-
nate with a breaking down of the di-
gestiOn, weak stomach weakens and
impoverishes the system, making it
easy for disease to gain fOothola.
Nobody ueed fear consumption, kid
ney disease, liver trouble or weak
heart and nervous system as long as
the digestion is good and the stomach
able to assimilate plenty of wholesome
food.
Stomach weakness shows itself in a
score of ways and this little book

and points the way to a cure so sim
pie that anyone can understand aud

Thousands have some form of stom
ach trouble and do not know it.
They ascribe the headaches, the lan-
guOr, nervousness, insomnia, palpita-
tion, constipation and similar symp-
toms to some other cause than the
true one. Getyour digestion on the
right track and the heart trouble,
lung trouble, liver di>ease or nervous
debility will rapidly disappear,
This little book treats entirely on
the cause and removal of indigestion
and its accompanying annoyances.
1t describes the symptoms of Acid
Dyspepsia, Nervous Dyspepsia, Slow
Dyspepsia, Amylaceous Dyspepsia,
Catarrh of Stomach and all affections
of the 6igestiye organs in plain lam
guage easily understood and the cause
