AS a general rule, meat once a day is
sufficient for all classes of men, women
and children, and grains, fruit and vege-
tables should constitute the bulk of food
eaten.
But many OF the most nutritious foods
are difficult OF digestion. and it is of no
use to advise brain workers to eat largely
of grains and vegetables where the diges-
ton is too weak to assimilate them prop
erly.
1t is always best to get the best results
from our food that some simple and
harmless digestive should be taken after
meals to assist the relaxed digestive or
gans, and several years experience have
proven Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets to be
a very safe, pleasant and effective diges-
tive and a remedy which may be taken
daily with the best results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can hardly
be called a patent medicine, as they do
not act on the bowels nor any particular
organ but on the fool eaten. They sup
ply what weak stomachs lack, pspsin
diastase. and BY stimulating the gastric
glands increase the natural secretion of
hydroehlortc acid.
People who make daily practice of
taking one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after each meal are sure to have
perfect digestion, which means perfect
health
There 10 no danger of forming an injH-
rtous habit as the tablets contain abso-
lutely nothing but natural digestives; CO.
caine, morphine and similar drugs have
| no place in n stomach medicine and
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are certainly
the best known and most popular of all
stomach. remedies.
