PERSIA TABLETS.

No trouble is more common or
more misunderstood than nervous
dyspepsia. People having it think
their nerves are to blame aId are
surprised that they are not cured by
nerve medicines. The real seat OF
the mischief is lost sight of. Tie
stomach is the organ to be looked
after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not
have any pain whatever in the stom.
ach, nor perhaps any Of the usual
symptoms Of stomach weakness. Ner.
vous dyspepsia shows itself not in the
stomach so much as III nearly every
organ. In some cases the heart pal.
pilates and is irregular; IN others the
kidneys are affected; in others the
bowels are constipated. with head
aches; still others are troubled with
loss of flesh and appetite with accum-
ulations Of gas, sour risings and
