A POPULAR MISTAKE
Regarding Remedies for Dyspepsia
and Indigestion.

The national disease OF Americans is
Indigestion, or In it's chronic form. dys-
pepsla, and FOR the very reason that II
IL so common many people neglect taking
proper treatment for what they consider
trihing stomach trouble, when, as a mat
ter OF fact, indigestion lays the founda-
ton for many incurable diseases. No per-
son with a vigorous, healthy stomach will
fall a victim 10 consumption. Many kid
ney diseases and heart troubles date their
begisning from poor digestion: thin, ner-
vous people are really so because their
stomachs are out OF gear: weary. languid.
faded out women owe their condition 10
imperfect digestion.
when nearly every person you meet is
aiiicted with weak digestion II is not
surprising that nearly every secret pa
tent medicine on the market claims TO
be cure for dyspepsia, as well as a
scoEe OF other troubles. when In fact, as
Dr. Werthier says, there is but one genu-
Inc dyspepsia cure which is perfectly safe
and reliable, and moreover. this remedy is
not patent medicine, but 1t is a scien-
tifc combination Of pure pepsin free from
animal natter. vegetable essences, fruit
salts. and bismuth. II is sold by drug
gists under the name OF Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets. No extravagant claims are
made for them, but for Indigestion or any
stomach trouble, Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are far ahead OF any remedy
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 II. A cure re-
suits. because all the stomach needs is
rest. which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
give by doing the work Of digestion.
Druggists sell these tablets at so cents
per package. Little book on stomach
diseases and testimonials sent free by
