THE STARVATION PLAN.
OF Treating Dyspepsia and s,omacn Trou-
bles Is Useless and Unscientific.

The almost certain failure Of The
starvation cure for dyspepsia has
been proven time and again, but even
now course Of dieting ie generally
the first thing recommended for o case
OF Indigestion or any stomach trouble.
Many people with weak digestion, as
well as some physicians, consider the
first step 10 take In attempting to cure
Indigestion Is TO restrict the diet, eth.
er by selecting certain foods and re-
joctiDg others or TO cut down the
amount OF food eaten 10 barely enough
to keep soul and body together, In 9th.
| er words the starvation plan Is by
many supposed to DC the first essen
tial.
ALI this Is radically wrong. II Is
dieting to a man already suffering from
dieting to man alteady suffering form
starvation because Indigestion itself
starycs every organ, nerve and fibre
Ia the body.
What people with poor digestion
most need Is abundant nutrition, plen
ty Of good, wholesome, properly cook
cd food, and something 10 assist the
weak stomach to digest H..
This is exactly the purpose for which
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are adapted
and the true reason why they cure tho
worst cases Of stomach trouble.
Eat n sufficient amount of whole
some food and after each meal take
one or two Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tan
let's to promptly digest it.
In this way the system Is nourished
and the overworkcd stomach rested,
because the tablets will digest the
food whether the stomach works or
NOT, one grain of the active digestive
principle in Stuart's Dyspepsia Tap-
lets being sufficient to digest 5000
!, grains of meat, eggs and other albu.
minous food.
: DR.. Harlandson and DR.. Redwell
recommended these tablets in all cases
of defective digestion because the pep
, sin and diastasc in them are absolute
, ly free from animal matter ana otneI
, impurities and being pleasant TO th'
taste are as safe and harmless for Tho
child as for the adult.
All drug stores sell this excellen
preparation and the daily use of then
) after meals will be of great benefit
| not only as an immediate relief. hui

SHELDON SWAMPS

that he would like to 90 with him, as he
wanted to stop at the village Of Wey-
bridge and procure some mittens and
clothes. They had got almost to Mr..
Smiths when Wilson snatched the money
from the boys pocket. He then jumped
