PECULIAR POlSONS.
Generated In the Human Body.
The Result of Imperfect Digestion of
Food.

The Result of Imperfect Digestion of
Food.
Every living thing, plant or animal,
contains within itself the germs of
certain decay and death.
In the human body these germs of
disease and death (called by scientists
Ptomaines). are usually the result of
imperfect digestion of food; the re-
suit of indigestion or dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weak
ness, does not promptly and thorough
" digest the food. The result is
heavy, sodden mass which ferments
(the first process of decay poisoning
the blood, making it thin, weak and
lacking in red corpsucles; poisoning
the brain, causing headache and pain
in the eyes.
Bad digestion irritates the heart,
causing palpitation and 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

complexion.
The great English scientist, Huxley,
said the best start in life is sound
stomach. Weak stomachs fail to di-
gest food properly, because they lack
the proper quantity of digestive acids
Qactic and hydrochloric) and pepto-
genie products; the most sensible
in all cases of indigestion, is
to take after each meal, one or two of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, because
they supply in a pleasant, harmless
form all the elements that weak stom-
achs lack.
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets will cure every form of
stomach trouble except cancer of the
stomach.
They increase flesh, insure pure
blood, strong nerves, bright eve
and clear complexion, because all
these result only from wholesome food |
well digested.
Nearly all druggists sell Stuart's |
Tablets at 50 cents full |
