BRAIN FOOD
Is of Little Benefit Unless 1t Is DI-
 gested.

l Nearly everyone will admit that as a | nation we eat too much meat and too 1 little of vegetables and the grains. | For business men, office men and clerks, | and in fact everyone engaged in seden- l tary or indoor occupations. grains, milk l and vegetables are much more health | full
 1 Only men engaged in a severe outdoor
 manual labor can live on a heavy meat diet and continue in health. | As a general rule, meat once day is l sufficient for all classes of men, women I and children, and grains, fruit and vege- | tables should constitute the bulk of food eaten.
 l But many of the most nutritious foods are difficult of digestion and it is of no use to advise brain worxers to eat l largely of grains and vegetables where l the digestion is too weak to assimilate | them properly.
 | It is always best to get the best results l 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 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets to be a very safe, pleasant and effective di- gestive 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 only on the rood eaten. They
 supply what weak stomachs lack, pepsin
 diastase and by stimulating the gastric glands increase the natural secretion of hydrochloric acid.
 People who make a 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 is no danger of forming an injur- ious habit as the tablets contain abso- lutely nothing but natural digestives: cocaine, morphine and similar drugs have no place in a stomach medicine and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are certainly
 the best known and most popular of all stomach remedies.
 Ask your druggists Tor a fifty cent package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and after weeks use note the im- provement In health. appetite and nery- ous energy.
