Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a dis
covery of great value to the medical pro-
fession and the public. They are an un-
failing specific in all cases of dyspepsia
and disordered digestion.
Almost everybody's digestion is disord-
cred more or less, and the commOnest
thing they do for It is to take some one
Of the many so-called blood purifiers.
which in many cases are merely strong
cathartics Such things are not needed
II the organs are in a clogged condition,
they need only a little help and they will
right themselves. Cathartics irritate the
sensitive Innings of the stomach and
bowels and often do more harm than
good.
Purging is not what is needed. The
thing to do is TO put the food in condi-
ton to be readily digested and assimilat-
ed Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets do this
perfectly. They partly digest what is
eaten and give the stomach just the help
it needs They stimulate the secretion
and excretion Of the digestive fluids and
relieve the congested condition of the
glands and membranes. They put the
whole digestive system in condition to
do it's work When that is done, you
need take no more tablets, unless you
eat what does not agree with you. Then
take one, or two tablets-give them need
