oArARRH OF THE sromAoH.
A Pleasant Simple, but Safe Enoctual
Cure for It.

Pleasant Simple, but Safe Enoctual
euro for It.
Catarrh of the stomach has long
been considered tho next thing to in
durable.
The usual symptoms are a full or
oloating sensation after eating, ac-
companied sometimes with sour or
Watery-risings, a formation of gases!
causing pressure on the heart and
lungs and difficult breathing; head
ache, tickle appetite, nervousness and
a general played out, languid feel
ing.
There Is often foul taste in the
month, coated tongue. and if the il :
terror OF the stomach could be seen it
would show slisny, inflamed condi-
ton.
The cure for this common and OBJ
stlnate trouble is found in a treat
ment which causes the food to be
readily, thoroughly digested before
1t has had tune to ferment and irritate
the delicate mucous surfaces of the
stoma ch.'
10 secure prompt and healthy di-
gestlon is the one necessary thing to
do, and when normal digestion is Sc
cured the catarrhal condition will have
disappeared.
According to DR.. Harlanson che SAT-
est and best treatment is to use after
each meal tablet composed of Dias
tase, Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux
Golden Seal and fruit acids.
These tablets can be found at all
drug stores under the name of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, and, not being a
patent medicine, can be used with
perfect safety and assurance that
healthy appetite and thorough diees-
rlon will follow their regular use after
meals.
Mr.. N. j, Booher Of 271O Dearborn
ST., Chicago, Ill, writes: aCatarrh is
a local condition resulting fcom a me-
elected cold in the head, whereby the
lining membrane of the nose becomes
lnt1amed and the poisonous discharge
therefrom, passing backward into the
