Thev Cure stomach Troubles and Indigestion
Anyway, Whether You Have Faith u
Them or Not.
Them or Not,


All physicians agree that the element
of faith has great deal to do in the
cure Of disease.
Firm belief and confidence in a family
physician or the same confidence and faith
in a patent medicine have produced re-
markable cures in all ages.
This is especially true in nervous trou-
bles, and no field offers so prolific har-
vest for the quack and charlatan as the
nervous system. :,
Nevertheless, the most common of all
diseases, indigestion and stomach trou-
bles, which in turn cause nervous dis.
eases, heart troubles. consumption. and
loss Of flesh, require something besides
faith to cure.
Mere faith will not digest your food
for you. will not give an appetite. will
not increase your flesh and strengthen
your nerves and heart, but Stuart's 5Dys-
pepsia Tablets will do these things. be-
cause they are composed Of the elements
and peptones necessary to the digestion

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
food if placed IN a jar or bottle IN water
heated to 80 degrees. and they Will do It

have faith that they will or not.

DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes Follow Its Ex-
cessiyc Use.

Common soda is all right in its place,
and Indispensable IN the kitchen and for
cooking and washing purposes, but it was
never intended for a medicine, and people
who use it as such will some day regret
it.
We refer to the common use of soda to
relieve heartburn or sour stomach. a
habit which thousands of people practice
almost daily, and one which is frauGht

The soda acts as a mechanical lrr1tant
to the walls of the stomach and bowels,
and cases are on record where it accu-
mulated in the intestines,, causing death
by inflammation or pertonittS.
DR.. Harlanson recommends as the safest
and surest cure for sour stomach (ac1d
dyspepsia) an excellent preparation sold
Dyspepsia Tablets. These tablets are large
twenty-grain lozengers, very pleasant to
taste and contain the natural acids, pep
tones and digestive elements essential

promptly before it has had time to fer

Dr.. Wuerth states that he invariably
uses Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in all
cases of stomach arrangements. and finds
them a certain cure, not only for sour
stomach, but, by promptly digesting the

arrested this morning by Police CHIEF
Brinkley, Officer Dennis and Constable

officers went on a special train.
Early was brought to Suffolk and lodged

ONLY ONE WAY.
TO PURIFY THE BLOOD, INCREASE
FLESH AND STRENGTH AND TO
CURE INDIGESTION.
SECRET PATENT MEDICINES WILL
NOT DO 1T.
There is Simpler and Better Way.

There is only one way to purify the
blood, only one way to increase flesh,
and that is through the stomach and di-
gestive organs: Why? Because the stom-

flesh, bone, nerves and sinew Did you
ever see a person blessed with a healthy
vigorous stomach and digestion who had
impure blood. muddy, sallow complexion
or who had weak nerves, sleeplesS nights
and the thousand and one pains and
aches arising from poor digestion? No.
because perfect digestion converts the
food eaten into pure blood, strong nerves,
and muscles. and all the flesh a person
needs to have for health, symmetry and
beauty

The kinds of food that make flesh ara the
foods that form the greater part OF our

Now, the only reason so many people
remain thin is because their stomachs do
