Cstarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurable
The usual symptoms are full or bloat-
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
with sour or watery risings, a formation
Of gases causing pressure on the heart

aches tickle appetite nervousness and a
general played out, languid feeling
There Is often foul taste in the mouth,

of Stuart's Dyspepsia tablets and not be-
ing patent medicine can be used with
