A TRAVELLING MAN
Gives Some Valuable Hints Heg"r"~
ing the Caro- OF the Health While
Travelling.

Mr.. r.. w. Wincherdon. a commercial
traveller from Birmingham. whose DUST
ness Keeps him almost constantly on inc
road, relates I'm the Sunday News the
dangers TO health resulting from constant
change of residence and the way ne over
came the usual injurious effects.
He says one thing people travelling
cannot very well avoid Is the constant
change in water and food; the stomach
never mas an opportunity TO become ac-
customed 10 anything, and I'm a few years
or much sooner. the average travelling
man becomes a hopeless dyspeptc
For several years suffered more or less
from Indigestion. sour stomachs, head
aches. dlstaste FOR food. often no appetite,
gas on the stomach. and the usual I'M
pleasant effects Of imperfect digestion.
Nearly every travelling man has his
favorite remedy for different troubles. and
7 tried all Of them with indifferent results.
Finally. on the train between Pittsburg
and Philadelphia one day, / overheard a
conversation between two ladies', one OF
whom had suffered severely from indiges-
ton. and stated she had been completely
cured BY n remedy which she called
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. 1 remember
ed the conversation, because It directly
interested me; and 81 the next town |
inquired at the first drugstore and bought
n package for fifty cents, and from that
day to this i have never been without
them. They are pieasant-tasting tablets.
