PECULIAR POISONS.
Generated In the Human Body-The Result
of Imperfect Digestion of Food.


Every living thing, plant or animal,
certain decay and death.
In the human body these germs OF
death (called by scientists Ptomaines)
are usually the result of imperfect
| digestion of food; the result of indi-
gestion or dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weakens.
does not promptly and thoroughly di-
| gest the food. The result is heavy,
sodden mass which ferments -Cthe first
process of decay poisoning the blood,
making ii 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 bring
ing on disease of this very important
| organ.
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys,
causing Bright's disease and diabetes.
And this is so because ever organ,
every nerve depends upon the stom-
ach alone for nourishment and re-
newal, and weak digestion show sit SELF
not only in loss of appetite and flesh,
but in weak nerves and muddy COM
plexion.
The great English scientist, Huxley,
said the best start in life is a sound
stomach. Weak stomachs fail to di-
gest food properly, because they lack
the proper quantity of digestive acids
Qactic and hydrochloric) and pepto-
genie products; the most sensible
remedy in all cases of indigestion, is
to take after each meal one or two
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, be-
cause they supply in a pleasant,
harmless form all the elements that
weak stomachs lack.
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets will cure any form of
stomach trouble, except cancer of the
stomach.
They increase flesh, insure pure
blood, strong nerves, bright eve and
clear complexion, because all these
result only from wholesome food well
digested.
