THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also n Few Facts on the Same Sub


iect.
We hear much nowadays about health
! foods and hygienic living, about vegeta-
! rianism, 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 in
! tended 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. A warm welcome was extended TO
any kind from bacon to acorns.
! 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
| highly concentrated form and is digested
and is assimilated more quickly than yege-
| tables and grains
DIR. Julius Remmson on this subject says:
| Nervous persons. people run down in
health. and of low vitality, should eat meat
and plenty of 1t. II the digestion is too
| feeble at first II may be easily corrected
\ by the regular use Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
| Tablets after each meal. Two of these ex-
| cellent tablets taken after dinner will d.
/ gest several thousand grains of meat, eggs,
and 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-
STA Tablets, because they supply the pep
i sin and diastase necessary to perfect d.
gestion. and every form of Indigestion will
/ be overcome by their use.
That large class of people who come I'M
| der the head of nervous dyspepties should
eat plenty of meat and ensure 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 cathartic
medicines. masquerading under the name
| OF dyspepsia cures, are useless for iIdi-
! gestion, as they have absolutely no effect
| upon the actual digestion of food
! Dyspepsia in all its many forms is sim
| ply 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 preparation like Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets. which is endorsed
by the medical profession and known TO
contain active digestive principles.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
| Tablets al 30 cents for full treatment.
