AN oBJEcTLEssoN.
In a Restaurant.

A physician put the query: Have you
never noticed in any large restaurant at
lunch or dinner tin e the large number OF
hearty. vigorous old men at the tables;
men whose ages run from so to so years;
many of them bald and all perhaps grey,
but none OF them feeble or senile2
Perhaps the spectacle is so common as
TO have escaped your observation or COM
nent, but nevertheless II is an object
lesson which means something.
If you will notice what these hearty cid
fellows are eating you will observe that
they are not munehing bran crackers nor
gingeriy picking their WY through menu
card of new tangled health foods; on the
contrary they seem to prefer juicy roast
of beef, a properly turned loin Of mutton.
and even the deadly broiled lobster is not
altogether ignored.
The point OF all this is that a vigorous
old age depends upon good digestion and
plenty OF wholesome food and not upon
dieting and an endeavOr TO live upon bran
crackers.
There is a certain class of food cranks
who seem to believe that meat. coffee, and
many other good things are rank poisons,
but these cadaverous sickly looking indi-
yiduals are a walking condemnation of
their own theories.
The matter in a nutshell is that IL the
stomach secretes the natural digestive
juices In sufficient quantity any whole
some food viii be promptly digested: IL
the stomach does not DO so. and certain
foods cause distress one or two of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal will
remove all difficulty because they supply
just what every weak stomach lacks, pep
sin. hydro-chlOric acid, distas:es and nux
StuaTt's Dyspepsia Tablets do not act
upon the bowels and in fact are not
strictly a medicine, as they act almost en-
tirely upon the food eaten, digesting IT
thoroughly and thus gives a much needed
rest and giving an appetite for the Lext
meal
or people who travel nine out of ten
use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. knowing
them to be perfectly safe to use at any
time and also having found out by expe-
rience that they are safeguard against
Indigestion in any form, and eating as
they have to. at all hours and all kinds of
food, the travelling public for years have
pinned their faith to Stuart's Tablets.
All druggists sell them at so cents for
full sized packages and any druggist from
Maine to California II his opinion were
asked, will say that Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets is the most popular and success
ful remedy for any stomach trouble.
