cArannu OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, But Safe and
iEncctual Cure for II

Eatarrh OF the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to oncurab'c.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloat-
snS sensation after eating, accompanied
sometimes with sour or watery -isings Il
formation OF gases, causing pressure on
the neart and lungs and difficult breath

ness and a general played-out, .anguId
feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the mouth,
coated tongue and if the interior OF TIC
stomach could be seen It would s.iurt I,
Shiny, inflamed condition.
The cure for this common and ob.ti-
nate trouble is found In a treatment
which causes the food to be readily thor
oushly digested before it has time To ftr-
Inent and irritate the delicate mucous sur
faces OF the stomach. To secure a prompt
and healthy digestion is the one necessary
thing to do and when normal digestion is
secured the catarrhal condition VIII have
disappeared.
According to DR.. lIarlanson the safest
and best treatment is to use after each
meal a tablet, composed of Diastasc,
.Aseptic Pepsin, little Nux, Golden Seal
and fruit acids. These tablets can row
be found at all drug stores under the
name OF Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. and.
not being a patent medicine, can be used
with perfect safety and assurance that
