CATRRRH OF THE STOMACH
\ Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and
Effectual Cure for 1t

Eflectual Cure for 1t
Catarrh Of the stomach has
locg been considered tie next
thing TO ircurable. The usual
symptoms are a full or bloating
sensation after eating, accom-
panied sometimes with sour CT
watery risings, formation OF
gases, causing pressure on the
heart and lungs and difficult
breathing; headaches, tickle APP
petite, nervousness AMI a gen.
eral played out, languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste in
the mouth, coated tongue and if
the interior Of the stomach could
be seen it would show a Shiny, in

The cure of this common and
obstinate trouble is found in a
treatment which causes the food
to be readily, thoroughly d.
gested before it has time to fer
ment and and irrltate the delicate
mucous surfaces Of the stomach.
10 secure a prompt and healthy
digestion is the one necessary
thing to do and when normal d.
geStiOn is secured the catarrhal
condition will have disappeared.
According to DR., Harlanson
the safest and best treatment is
to use after each meal a tablet,
composed of Diatase, Aseptic

and fruit acids. These tablets
can now be found at all drug
