Is was able to make close to 90 miles

The United States has lost one OF

DIR. wURTH's OPINION.
Of the New Discovery In Med
icfne.
A Remarkably Successful Rene
dy for Dyspepsia, Indigestion
and Stomach Troubles.

Dr. Wurth, in commenting on recent
discoveries in medicine said: There is
none which is certain to be so valuable
and far reaching in benefit as stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, the news stomach re-
NEEDY; say far reaching, because people
little realize how important a sound
stomach and vigorous digestion is to
efefy man. woman and child.
Indigestion is the starting point OF
consumption. heart disease, Brights
disease diabetes, nervous pros
tration, liver troubles; why is
this sol Simply because e.ery nerve,
muscle and tissue in our bodies is Great
ed and nourished from the food We eat.
If that food is, by reason of a weak
stomach. compelled to lie for hours, a
sour, fermentins mass of half digested
food, it poisons the blood and nervous
system, creates gas which distends the
stomach and bowels, causing pressure on
the heart, lungs and other organs and
seriously impeding their action.
He says further, the point to direct
attention is not the nerves, nor heart,
nor lungs nor kidneys, but the stomach,
the first cause of all the mischief.
The remedy to use for indigestion and
weak stomachs is not some cathartic,
but remedy which viii digest the food,
Increase the flow of gastrict juice, absorb
the gases, and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
will accomplish exactly this result in
any case of stomach trouble because
these tablets are composed of the dig
estive acids, aseptic pepsin, Golden Seal
and Bismuth, pleasant to taste, and not
being patent medicine can be used BY
anyone with perfect safety, believe
Stuati's Dyspepsia Tablets Will cure any
fam of indigestion and stomach trouble
except cancer of stomach,
Full size packages of .Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets are sold by druggists at
50 cents. A book on stomach diseases
together with thousands of testimonials
will be sent b addressing Stuart Co.,
