''For five weeks lived on cold water
so to speak" writes a man who suffered
terribly from indigestion.
He could hardly keep anything on bis
stomach. What stayed, wasn't properly
digested and gave him terrible pangs.
This is not an uncommon case. Dys-
peptics don't get enough nourishment.
They are generally thin and weak.
They may eat enough, but they DOM
digest enough Much of what they cal
turns into poison. If this keeps on there's
no telling what disease they may gel
next.
That's why it is best to take Shaker
Digestive Cordial, as soon as symptoms Of
indigestion appear.
1t cures all the evils of indigestion, anc
prevents the evils which indigestion
causes.
Sold by druggists, price 10 cents to $40
per bottle.
