The Result of Imperfect Digestion
of Food.
Every living thing, plant or animal
contains within itself the germs of cer-

In the human body these germs of dis
ease and death (called by scientists
Ptomaines), are usually the result of i'm
perfect digestion of food: the result of
indigestion or dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weakness.
does not promptly and thoroughly digest
the food. The result is a heavy, sodden
mass which ferments (rhe first process of

and pain in the eyes
Bad digestion irritates the heart, caus-
ing palpitation and finally bringing on
disease of this very important organ.
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys
causing Bright's disease and diabetes.
And this is so because every organ
every nerve depends upon the stomach
alone for -nouriShment and renewal. and
weak digestion shows itself not only in
loss of appetite and flesh. but in weak
nerves and muddy complexion.

The regular use Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
