A POPULAR MISTAKE
Regarding Remedies for Dyspepsia

The national disease Of Americans is
indigestion, or in its chronic form dys-
pepsia, and for the very reason that it
is so common many people neglect TAX
ing proper treatment for what they
consider trifiing stomach trouble, when
as matter of fact indigestion lays the
foundation for many incurable dis
eases. No person with vigorous,
healthy stomach will fall a victim to
Many kindred diseases
and heart troubles date their beginning
from poor Digestion; thin, nervous peo-
pie are really so because their stom-
achs are out of gear: weary, languid
faded out women owe their condition
to imperfect digestion.
When nearly every person you meet
is afflicted with weak digestion Il is not
surprising that nearly every secret
patent medicine on the market claims
TO be cure for dyspepsia, as we'll as q
score of other troubles. when in fact,
as DIR. Werthier says, there is but one
genuine dyspepsia cure which is per-
fectly safe and reliable, and moreover,
this remedy is not patent medicine.
