failing specific in all cases of dyspepsia
and disordered digestion.
Almost everybody's digestion is disor-
dered more or less, and the conlnlonest
thing they do for it is to take some one
o. the many sso-called blood purifiers,
which in many cases are merely strong
cathartics. Such things are not needed.
If the organs are in q clogged condition,
they need only d little help and they
will right themselves. Cathartics irri-
tate the sensitive Innings of the stoul-
ach and bowels and often do more harm
than good
sPurging is not what is needed The
thing to do is to put the food in condi-
ton to be readily digested and assin-
lated. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do this
| perfectly. They partly digest what is
eaten and give the stomach just the help
| it needs. They stimulate the secretion
and excrction of the digestive fluids and
relieve the congested condition of the
| glands and membranes. They put the
| whole digestive system in condition TO
do its work. When that is done you
need take no more tablets unless you eat
! what does not agree with You. Then
take one or two tablets-give them need
| ed help and you will have no trouble.
It's a common sense medicine and
common sense treatment and it will cure
every time. Not only cure the disease
but cure. the cause. Goes about it in i
perfectly sensible and scientific way.
