When the mother is taken from the

STRANGER THAN FICTION.
A Remedy Which Has RevoIutionlzed
the Treatment Of Stomach
Troubles.

lfoupiet.
The remedy Is not heralded as a
wonderful discovery nor yet as a
secret patent medicine, neither is It
claimed TO cure anything except dys-
pepsia. indigestion and stomach
troubles with which nine out Of ten
suffer.
The remedy is in the form Of pleas
ant tasting tablets or lozenges, con
tanning vegetable and fruit essences,
pure aseptio pepsin government
test, golden seal and diastose The
tablets are sold by druggists under
the name of stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's. Many interesting experiments
to test the digestive power Of Stuart's
tablets show that one grain Of the
active principle contained in them IS
sufficient to thoroughly digest 5000
grains Of raw meat. eggs and other
wholesome food.
stuart's Tablets do not act upon
the bowels like after dinner pills and
cheap cathartics which simply irrl-
tate and inaame the iutestlnes with
out having any effect whatever in di-
/ Igesting food or curing indigestion.
If the stomach can be rested and
assisted IN the work of digestion il
will very soon recover its normal
lvigor, as no organ j. so much abused
and overworked as the stomach
! This is the secret, if there is any
Isecret, Of the remarkable success of
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, a remedy
practically unknown few years ago
and now the most widely known OF
any treatment for stomach weakness.
This success has been secured en-
tirely upon its merits as a digestive
pure and simple because there can
be no stomach trouble If the food is
properly digested
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets act en-
tirely on the food eaten, dlgesting it
completely, so that It can be assimi
lated into blood, nerve and tissue.
They cure dyspepsia, water brash,
sour stomach, gas and bloating after
meals, because they furnish the di-
gestive power which weak stomachs
lack and unless that lack is supplied
1t is useless TO attempt to cure by
the use OF 'tonics," pills" and ca
thartics which have absolutely no di-
gestive power.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be
found at all drug stores and 'he reg
ular use Of one or two Of them after
meals. viii demonstrate their merit
better than any other argument,
