A POPULAR MISTAKE.
Regarding Remedies for Dyspepsia and
 Indigestion.

The national disease of Americans is indigestion or in it's chronic form dyspepsia, and for the very reason that it is so common many people neg lect taking proper treatment for what they consider trifiing stomach trou-
 ble, when as a matter of fact, indiges-
 tion lays the foundation for many in-
 curable diseases. No person with a vigorous, healthy stomach will fall a victim to consumption. Many kidney
 diseases and heart troubles date their
 beginning from poor digestion; thin, their stomachs are out of gear; weary,
 languid, faded out women owe their condition to imperfect digestion.
 When nearly every person you meet is afflicted with weak digestion it is not surprising that nearly every secret patent medicine on the market claims to be a cure for dyspepsia, as we'll as a score of other troubles, when in fact, as Dr. Werthier says, there is but one genuine dyspepsia cure which is per fectly safe and reliable, and more over, this remedy is not a patent medicine, but it is scientific combi nation of pure pepsin Gree from ami
 naI mdCter), VeSeCdDle eSSeucoS, IT uiC salts and bismuth. It is sold by drug gists under name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. No extravagant claims are made for them, but for indigestion or any stomach trouble, Stuart's Dyspep- sia Tablets are far ahead of any rem edy yet discovered. They act on the food eaten, no dieting is necessary, simply eat all the wholesome food you want and these tablets will digest it. A cure results, because all the stom- ach needs is a rest, which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give by doing the work of digestion.
 Druggists sell these tablets at 50 cents per package. Little book on stomach diseases and testimonials sent free by addressing Stuart Co.,, chemists, Marshall, Mich.
