NO FAITH CURE.
ABOUT STuART'S DYSPEPSIA
TABLETS.
They Cure Stomach Troubles and Indi-
gestion Anyway, Whether You
Have Faith in Them
or Not.

Mere faith will not digest your food
for you, will not give an appetite, will
not increase your flesh and strengthen
your nerves and heart, but Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets will do these things,
because they are composed OF the ele-
ments OF Digestion; they contain the
juices, acids and peptones necessary To
the digestion and assimilation Of all
wholesome food.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
food If placed in jar or bottle i'm water
heated TO 9S degrees, and they will do
IL much more effectively when taken
into the stomach after meals. whether
you have faith that they will or not.
They invigorate the stomach, make
pure blood and strong nerves. i'm the
only way that nature can do IL, and
that is, plenty OF wholesome food well
digested IL is not what we eat. but
what we digest that does us good.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by nearly all druggists at so cents for
full sized package, or by mail from
the Stuart Co, Marshall, Mich.
