Our best physicians Of the present day

rather than heavy drugs. and this is the
true method, for all physicians agree that
only from food can the body be rebuilt.
Many people fail to give their physicians
credit, for after living on poorly selected
or badly cooked food for a long time. per-
maps. and when their ailments become
chronic, they expect the Doctor, with
some magic potency, to instantly rebuild
them.
This is not possible. The only true
method is to turn as quickly as can be,

INTERESTING, m TRUE.
You Can Try 1t For Yourself and
Prove 1t.

One grain of the active principle in Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets will digest 5000
grains of meat, eggs or other wholesome
food. and this claim has been proven by
actual experiment which anyone can per-
form. for himself in the following manner:
Cut hard boiled eggs into very small pieces
as it would be it naasticated, place the egg
and two or three of the tablets in a bottle
or jar containing warm water heated to
9S degrees tthe temperature of the body1
and keep it at this temperature for three
and one half hours. at the end OF which
time the egg will be as completely digest
ed 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 IL will do to the
egg or meat in the stomach and nothing
else Will rest and invisorate the stomach
so safely and effectuaay. Even little
child can take Stuart's Tablets with safety
and benefit If its digestion is weak and
the thousands of cures accomplished by
their regular daily use are easily explain
ed when it is understood that they are
composed of vegetable essences, aspetic
pepSin. diastasc and Golden Seal, which
,ninsles with the food and digest 1t thor
oughly. giving the overworlSed stomach
q chance TO recuperate.
Dieting never cures dyspepsia, neither
do pills and cati,artic medicines, which
simply irritate and infiame the intestines.
When enough food is eaten and promptly
digested there will be constipation, nor
in fact wiR there be disease of any kind,
because good digestion means good health
in every organ
The merit and success of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets are world wide and they
are sold at the moderate price of so cents
for full size package IN every drug store
in the United States and Canada, as well
as in Europe.
For the information of those interested
a little book will be mailed free by adj
dressing Il. a. Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich,
giving briefly the symptoms of the various
forms of stomach weakness, causes and

SLAVERY


You, reader, would not permit your
neighbor to call you out Of bed at mid.
night and oblige you to walk the pave
ment for two or three hours every
night. You would not allow him to
burn your hand wilfully, MOI 70 cut
your finger off, just to please him.
Why, then, do you allow your stomach
to cause you loss of sleep, nightmare,
and continual suffering? Every dys-
peptic. every sufferer from indigestion,
b~iliousness, heartburn, w~aterbrash,
catarrh of the stomach and other stom-
ach diseases, is a slave to his or her
stomach. There is one way-only n
-of breaking the chains Of this slay-
cry: That is by using Dodd's Dyspcp-
STA Tablets. "
These digest the food you have eaten.
They don't need aid from the stomach.
which is therefore given time TO rest
and gain strength. They regulate the
bowels, which carry off the waste por-
ton of tie food not used in making
blood. Thus the stomach is cmptied
and prepared to receive the next meal.
No foul gas can form in the stomach
II you use Dodd's Dyspepsia Tablets,
for the food is digested by them al
once and does no remain in the stom.
ach to rot and cause disease.
