THE HEALTH HABIT

Just as Easy to Form as Any Other.
We do not deliberately form our pet
habits, but they are unconsciously ac-
duired and grow as we grow, and by the
time we learn they are hurting us we
find them too strong to be easily bro
ken.
Then. why not form good habit, q
habit which will counteract the many bad
ones in other words contract the unfash-
iopable habit of being always well.
The best health habit to get into is
to have and keep a vigorous stomach; if
YOU have a healthy digestion you can
drink your beloved coffee, smoke your
favorite brand OF tobacco, with little or
no harm; the mischief begins when these
things are forced upon the faithful stom-
acb without any assistance.
Form the habit of taking after meals
some harmless but efficient digestive
which will relieve the stomach of so much
extra work.
Nature furnishes us with such diges-
tives and when they are combined in
such pleasant preparation as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, they give the over
worked stomach just the necessary asss-
lance to secure perfect digestion with
out any Of the harmful effects of ca
thaftics and similar drugs.
The habit Of taking Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after meals is as necessary to the

Many families consider Stuart's Tablets
as essential in the house as knives and
forks.
They consist entirely of natural diges-
tive principles without the effect or char
acteristics of drugs; they have no ca
thartic action but simply go to work on
the food eaten and digest it.
Take into account your bad habits ana
