VERY FEW PEOPLE
Are Free From Some Form Of Indigestion.

1
Very few people are free from some
| form Of indigestion, but scarcely two
| VIII have the same symptoms.
Some suffer most directly after eat
ing, bloating from gas in stomach and
bowels, others have heart burn or sour
risings, still others have palpitation of
heart, headaches. sleeplessness, pains
in chest and under shoulder blades.
some have extreme nervousness as in
nervous dyspepsia.
But whatever the symptoms may be,
the cause in all cases of indigestion ia
the same, that is, the stomach for some
reason fails TO properly and promptly
digest what is eaten.
This is the whole story Of stomach
troubles in a nut shell. The stomach
must have rest and assistance and
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets give it both
by supplying those. natural digestives
which every weak stomach lacks. ow-
ing to the failure Of the peptic glands
in the stomach to secrete sufficient acid
and pepsin to thoroughly digest and
assimilate the food eaten.
One grain Of the active principle in
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
1000 grains Of meat, eggs or other
wholesome food, and this claim has
been proven by actual experiment
which anyone can perform for himself
in the following manner: Cut hard
boiled egg into very small pieces, as it
would be if masticated, place the egg
and two or three of the tablets in a
bottle or jar containing warm water
heated to 9S degrees (the temperature
Of the body and keep it at this tenn
rcrature for three and One-half hours,
ut tn" end Of which time the egg will
be as completely digested as it would
have been in the healthy stomach of a
hungry boy.
The point of this experiment is that
what Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will
DO to the egg in the bottle it will do to
the egg or meat in the stomach and
nothing else will rest and invigorate
the stomach 50 safely and effectually.
Even a little child can take Stuart's
Tablets with safety and benefit if it's
digestion is weak and the thousands of
cures accomplished by their regular
d1lly use are easily explained when it
IS understood that they are composed
q vegetable essences, aseptc pepsin
dia stase ana Golden Seal. which mingla
with the food and digest it thoroughly,
giving the overworked stomach a
chance to recuperate.
Dieting never cures dvsDepsia
neither do pills and cathartic medi-
cines. which simply irritate and in
flame the intestines.
When enough food is eaten and
promptly digested there will be no con-
stipation. nor in fact will there be dis
ease of any kind because good diges-
tion means good health in every organ.
The merit and success of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets are world wide and
they are sold at the moderate price of
70 cts. for full sized package in every
drug store in the United States and
Canada. as well as in Europe
For the information of those inter-
ested little book will be mailed free
