ABOUT KODOL DYSPEPSIA CURE.
That's Why Its Sole 10 Increasing so Rap.
sdly-So there must be Something
On Merit After All.

Fair minded people always admit 1t
when they find an article of merit: Ii
it has done them good they want it to
help others, too. Thousands bear
witness to the wonderful curative
qualities of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. 1t
Is the only preparation which pos
itively and completely digests any
good food you may eat. No one dis
putes the fact that some other digest
ants partially accomplish this result.
Pepsin, for instance, is found in the
healthy stomach. When it is lacking,
the patient takes pepsin and it helps
him. But pepsin digests only album
inous foods, like meat and eggs. May
be there's plenty of pepsin and a lack
of the other digestants. Then 1t
does no good. That's the trouble with
the other preparations. They don't
contain all the digestants. Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure contains them all. 1t
digests any good food you want. You
don't have TO diet. The feeling OF
fitness after eating is Immediately
relieved by Kodol Dyspepsia Cure.

But when he started home he told the
reporters he had no idea Of marrying
