SEASONABLE HINTS.
Guard Your Health in Fall and Early Winter.

A change from warm to cold is al
ways attended with more danger. than
from a cold to a warm temperature,
hence the greater mortality from lung
and throat diseases at this season of
the year as compared with spring.
The best protection against colds is
not 50 much in extra clothing as in
good digestion.
If the digestion and circulation are
good. colds will be unknown.
Poor digestion causes poor circula-
ton of the blood and when in this con-
dition severe colds are contracted on
The slightest provOcation.
People who make a regular practice
of taking Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after meals are free from colds. simply
because their digestion is perfect, the
heart strong and regular. and the
whole system fortified against disease.
1t requires little argument to con-
vince anyone that the best safeguards
against colds, pneumonia and changes
of temperature is good stomach
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken
after meals are dissolved and mngling
with the food cause it to be promptly
digested and assimlated; they do this
because they contain nothing but
harmless digestive elements, which di-
gest meat. eggs and other food even
when the stomach itself is weak and
, fiaccid.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets make
people well and keep them well, and
i the best habit you can acquire is to
make daily use of them at meals to
keep the digestive organs strong and
vigorous. noyl5-1S
