What is the first cause OF nine tenths OF all
disease?
Imperfect digestion OF food
Why does imperfect digestion cause disease OF
other organs?
Pecarse blood nerves. muscles bone and flesh
are derived from the food eat and digest. If
digestion is perfect the blood Is pure, nerves and
muscles strong, flesh firm. If the digestion is
poor. the blood is supplied from half-disested
fermentlng food. irritating every nerve and
organ. The result is. sooner or later. organic
disease because every organ being poorly nour-
ished the weakest gives way first and we have
liver trouble, kidney complaints. heart disease
or consumption.
Is not dieting the usual and best treatment to
cure indigestion?
No. because the dyspeptc has been starved
long enough: what is needed is abundant nour
ishment not the lack of it The stomach and
blood demand nutrment, not bran crackers.
What Ia the best method Of cure?
Plenty Of wholesome food well digested
But how can weak stomach digest plenty Of
wholesome food?
tain harmless remedies which are known to
digest food and thus nourish the blood and rest
the weak stomach.
What are these harmless remedies?
The most valuable are vegetable ferments.
pure pepsin. Golden Seal and fruit salts. All of
these are now combined in the form OF pleasant
tasting tablets sold by druggists under the name
Of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets.
Are these tablets superior TO the various liquid
preparations so called dyspepsia cures?
Most decidedly, because all liquid medicines
become stale with age and lose whatever good
qualities they may have had originally, while the
tablet retains its properties indefinitely. Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets can be carried in the pocket

or at daily occupation They cost but 80 cts.

warclng off disease.
Are Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets adapted to all
forms Of dyspepsia?
Yes because In all cases the trouble results
from indigested fermenting food. Stuarts Dys-

vncial Assemblies and trade associations from

all these elements have also expressed their ap-
proval OF the address TO President Mckinley
made by President Galvez that even the organ
OF the ultra Conservatives advises all members
OF the Conservative party TO go to the polls for
the election OF Representatives or Consulars
(Senators) to the new Cuban Parliament, all OF

been accepted by all inhabitants OF the island
Spanish well as Cuban born. with the ex-
ception Of the Separatists who still hold out

pledged their support to the new GOVERNMENT.
