THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also Few Facts of the Same Sub
ject.

|, N
ject.
We hear much nowadays about health
foods and hygienic living, about vegetarian
ism and many other fads along the same
line.
Restaurants may be found In the larger
cities where no meat, pastry, or coffee is
served and the food crank is in his glory,
and arguments and theories galore ad-
vanced TO prove that meat was never intend
ed for human stomachs, and almost make
us believe that our sturdy ancestors, who
lived four score years in robust health on
roast beef pork, and mutton, must have
been grossly ignorant of the laws of health
Our forefathers had other things to do
than formulate theories about the food they
ate. warm welcome was extended to any
kind from bacon to acorns.
A healthy appetite and common sense are
excellent guides to follow in matters of
diet, and mixed diet of grains, fruits, and
meats is undoubtedly the best
AS compared with grains and vegetables,
meat furnishes the most nutriment in a
highly concentrated form and is digested
and assimilated more quickly than vegeta-
bles and grains.
Dr. Julius Remmson on this subject says:
Nervous persons, people run down in
health and of low vitality should eat meat
feeble at first ii may be easily corrected by
the regular use of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tab
lets after each meal. Two of these excel
lent tablets taken after dinner will digest
several thousand grains of meat, eggs, or
other animal food in three hours, and no
matter how weak the stomach may be, no
trouble will be experienced if a regular
practice is made Of using Stuart's Dyspep-
sia Tablets, because they supply the pep
sin and diastase necessary TO perfect diges-
tion, and every form OF indigestion will be
overcome by their use.
That large class OF people who come un-
der the head OF nervous dyspeptics should
eat plenty of meat and insure its proper
digestion by the daily use of a safe. harm
less digestive medicine like Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, composed OF the natural
digestive principles, pepsin, diastase, fruit
acids and salts, which actually perform
the work of digestion. Cheap cathaItic
medicines, masquerading under the name Of
dyspepsia cures, are useless for indigestion
as they have absolutely no effect upon the
actual digestion Of food.
Dyspepsia in all its many forms is sim
ply a failure of the stomach to digest food
and the sensible way TO solve the riddle
and cure the dyspepsia is TO make daily
use at meal time Of a preparation like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. which is en-
dorsed by the medical profession and known
to contain active digestive principles.
All druggists sell Stuarts Dyspepsia Tab
lets al 5Gc for full treatment.
