PECULIAR POISONS.
GENERATED IN THE HUMAN BODY.
THE RESULT OF IMPERFECT DIGESTION
OF FOOD.


THE RESULT OF IMPERFECT DIGESTION
OF FOOD.
Every living thing, plant animal, contains
within itself the germs of certain decay and death
In the human body these germs of disease and
death called by scientists Ptomaines), are usu-
ally the result of imperfect digestion of food; the
result Of Indigestion dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weakness, does not
promptly and thoroughly digest the food. The re-
suit is heavy, sodden mass, which ferments (the
frst process of decay poisoning the blood, making
1t thin, weak and lacking in red corpuscles poison
ing the brain causing headaches and pain in the
eyes.
Bad digestion irritates the heart causing palpi-
tatien and finally bringing disease of this very
important organ
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys, causing
Brights disease and diabetes.
And this Is so because every organ, every nerve
depends upon the stomach alone for noi.rishment
and renewal, and weak digestion shows itself not
orly in loss Of appetite aud flesh, but in weaE
nerves and muddy complexion.
The great English scientist Huxley, said TIE
best start in life is sound stomach. Weak stom-
achs fail to digest food properly because they lack
the proper quantity of digestive acids tactIc and
hydrochloric) and peptogenic products the most
sensible remedy In all cases Of indigestion, is to
take after each meal two of Stuarts Dys-
persia Tablets, because they supply in pleasant,
harmless form all the elements that weak stomachs
lack.
The regular use OF StuaFt's Dyspepsia Tablets
will cure every form of stomach trouble except
cancer OF the stomach.
Ihey increase flesh, insure pure blood, strong
nerves. bright eye and clear complexion, because
all these result only FROM wholesome food well
dgested
