THE CAUSE OF
APPENDICITIS
HAS BEEN DISCOVERED.
How 1t Will Be Prevented in
y the Future.

Until within the past few months the
cause Of appendicitis has been attributed
to tho swallowing of a grape, tomnto,
cherry and other fruit seeds which were
supposed 20 lodge in the appendix and
set up an inflammation, but after operat-
ing upon thousands of cases and finding
no signs of any irritating substance, the
medical profession began to look further.
they were not long in discovering that
Intestinal Indigestion, only, was the true
cause, but here again they were brought
faes to face with a germ disease for
which they had no cure. Like the germs
of disease which cause Catarrh, BTon
ohltis and Consumption, this oacitli
could not be reached except by one germi-
eide strong enough to kill them without
injury 10 the patient The question then
arose. could this gerimcide be given
through the ston aoh and nave the same
effect as il did in diseases of the air pas
sages. Experiments were made during
the past summer, and Ii was proven that,
combined with other remedies Tor dyspep-
STA, Hyomei acted like charm and was
equally as efficacious in destroying those
germs as those Of Catarrh, bronchitis
and Consumption. This discovery re-
suited in the placing OF Hyomei Dys-
pepsia Cure en- the mar set. and now Tor
the first time in the history OF the medi-
cine a cure treating each Kind OF dyspep-
STA separately is given 10 the public. In

of all, can now be successfully treated
and the national disease. dyspepsia,
which has increased yearly in spite of all
so-called cures, can now be completely
eradicated and appendicitis prevented
HYOMEI DYSPEPSIA CURE
is the only one ever guaranteed to cure.
1t is unlike any other, as 1t treats each
phase of the disease separately, ana con-
tains the only germicide known which
win destroy the bacilli of this disease.

THE OLO WAY
OF Treating Dyspepsia and Indigestion
by Dietiugta Dangerous and Useless
One

We say the old way, but really 1t is a
very common one al present time and
many dyspeptics and physicians as well
consider tns first step to take in attempt
ing to cure indigestion is to diet, either
by selecting certain foods and rejecting
others or to greatly diminish the quantity
usually taken, in other words, the starva-
ton plan is by many supposed to be the
first essential.
The almost certain failure OF the starva-
ton cure for dyspepsia has been proven
time and again, but still the moment
dyspepsia makes its appearance course
of dieting is at once advised.
All this is radically wrong. 1t Is fool
ish and unsoientifio to Il commend dieting
or starvation to u man suffering from
dyspepsia, because ingdiRestion Itself
starves every organ and every nerve and
every fibre In the body.
Whnt the dyspeptic wants Is abundant
nutrition, which means plenty OF good,
w holesome, we'll cooked food and some
thing to assist the weak stomach to digest
1t. This ID exactly the purpose for which
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are adapted
and this Is the method by htch.they cure
the worst cases of dyspepsia. In other
words the patient eats plenty Of whole
some food and Stuart's Dyspepsia
way the system is nourished and
the overworked stomach reste I, because
the tablets wi digest the food whether
the stomach works or not. One Of these
tablets win digest 1000 grains of meat or
eggs,
Your druggist:will tell you that Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets Is the purest and safest
remedy for stomach troubles and every
trial makes one more friend for this ex-
cellept preparation. Sold at SO cts. for
