The all-important thing is TO keep the
stomach right, and to do this 1t is not
necessary to diet or to follow a set rule

Of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after each
meal and attribute my robust health
for man of my age to the regular daily
use of @Stuart's Tablets.
MY physician first advised me to use
them because he said they were perfect

and after using them a few weeks I have
never ceased to thank him for his advice
II honestly believe the habit Of taking

use brings health to the sick and ailing
and preserves health to the well and
strong.
Men and women past fifty years Of age
need a afe.digestive after meals to insure
a perfect digestion and to ward OF dis
ease. and the safest. best known and
most widely used is Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
They are found in every well regulated
household from Maine to California ana
