PECULIAR POIs0NS.


The Result of Imperfect Digestion
of Food.
Every living thing, plant or animal,
contains within itself the germs of
certain decay and death.
In the human body these germs of
death Called by scientists Ptomaines)
are usually the result of imperfect di-
gestion of food; the result of indtges-
ton or dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse weakens,
does not promptly and thoroughly di-
gest the food. The result is a heavy
sodden mass which ferments (the first
process Of decay, poisoning the blood,
making it thin, weak and lacking in
red corpuScles; poisoning the brain
causing headaches. pain in the eyes
Bad digestion weakens the heart,
causing palpitation and finally bringing
on disease Of this very important or
gan.
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys,
causing Bright's disease and diabetes.
And this is so because every organ.
every nerve depends upon the stomach
alone for nourishment and renewal, and
weak digestion shows itself not only
in loss Of appetite and flesh, but in
weak nerves and muddy complexion.

stomach. Weak stomachs fail to digest
food properly. because they lack the
proper quantity of digestive acids Qac
tic and hydrochtoric3 and peptogefic
products; the most sensible remedy In
all cases Of Indigestion, Is to take after
each meal one Or two Of Stuart's Dys-
repsia Tablets, because they supply in

nents that weak stomaohs lack.
The regular use Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will cure any form Of stomach

Nasal Cdfarrh quickly yields a
treatment by Ely's Cream Balm, which
is agreeably aromatic. It is received
through the nostrils, cleanses and heals
the whole surface over which it diffuses
itself. Our plan is to give every one a
chance to try the merit of Cream Balm
for the cure of Catarrh, Hay Fever
and cold in the Head, by mailing for 10
cents a trial size to test its curative
powers We mail the 90 cent size also and
the druggist keeps it. Test it and YOU
are sure to continue the treatment Re-
lief is immediate and a cure follows.
