In these days of humbuggery and

of leaving out dyspepsia and stomach
troubles. They are sure to claim that
their nostrum is absolutely certain to
cure every dyspeptic and hc need look
no further.
In the face of these absurd claims 1t
Is refreshing to- note that the propric-
tors of Stuarts Dyspepsia. Tablets have
carefully refrained from making any
undue claim or false representations
regarding the merits of this most ex-
cellent remedy for dyspepsia and stom-
ach troubles. They make but one
claim for 1t. that for indigestion and
various stomach troubles Stuart's Dy-
spepsia Tablets is radical cure. They

or woman suffering from indigestion,
chronic or nervous dyspepsia, who will
give the remedy a trial Will find that
nothing Is claimed for It that the facts
will not fully sustain.
