 DYSPEPSIA OR SOUR STOMACH.
Now Recognized as Cause of Serious
 Desease.

Acid dyspepsia, commonly called heart burn or sour stomach, Is a form of indiges- tion resulting from fermentation of the food. The stomach being too weak to promptly digest it. the food remains until fermentation begins. filling the stomach with gas and a bitter, sour, burning taste in the mouth is often present This con diton soon becomes chronic and being an every day occurrence is given but little at tention. Because dyspepsia is not imme- diately fatal, many people do nothing for the trouble.
 Within a recent period a remedy has been discovered prepared solely to cure dyspep- sia and stomach troubles. It Is known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and is now be- coming rapidly used and prescribed as a radical cure for every form of dyspesia. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been placed before the public and are sold by druggists everywhere at 50 cents per pack age It is prepared by the Stuart Chemi- cal Co.,. Marshall, Mich, and while it promptly and effectually restores a vigor- ous digestion, at the same time is perfectly harmless and will not injure the most deli cate stomach, but on the contrary by giv- ing perfect digestion strengthens the stom- ach, improves the appetite and makes life worth living

 "I saw not one instance of carelessness or callousness or time-serving, but all the nurses were cons cientiously devoted to their duty, and considered no hard work or fa- tigue or loss of rest worthy of the slightest consideration if they could by any possibil- ity further the interest or comfort of those
