PUTTING 1T STRONG
But Doesn't 1t Look ReasonabIeP

This may read as though we were
putting it a little strong, because it is
generally thought by the majority of
people that dyspepsia in its chronic form
is incurable or practically so. But we
have long since shown that dyspepsia
is durable, nor is it such a difficult mat
ter as at first appears.
The trouble with dySpepticS is that they
are continually dieting, starving them
selves or going to opposite extreme or
else deluging the already overburdened
stomach with "bitters-'' after dinner
pills" etc. which invariably increase the
difficulty even if in some cases they do
give a slight temporary relief Such
treatment of the stomach simply makes
matters worse. What the stomach wants
is a rest Now how can the stomach
become rested. recuoerated and at the
same time the body nourished and sus-
tanned.
This is a great secret and this is also
the secret OF the uniform success of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets This is d
comparatively new remedy. but its sue
cess and popularity leaves no doubt as
to its merit.
The Tablets will digest the food any,
way. regardless of condition of stomach.
The sufferer from dyspepsia according
to directions. is to eat an abundance OF
good wholesome food and use the tab
let's before and after each meal and the
result will be that the food will be di .
gested no matter how bad your dyspep-
STA may be. because, as before stated.
the tablets will digest the food even if
the stomach is wholly inactive. To
illustrate our meaning plainly, if you
take 1900 grains of meat, eggs or ordi-
nary food and place it in temperature
of SO degrees, and put with it one of
Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tablets it will digest
the meat or eggs almost as perfectly as
if the meat was enclosed within the
sto~7aci.-
The stomach may be ever so weak, yet
these tablets will perform the work of
digestion and the body and brain will be
properly nourished and at the same time
a radical. lasting cure of dyspepsia will
be made because the much abused
stomach VIII be given, to some extent.
a much needed rest Your druggist will
tell yoC that of all the many remedies
advertised to cure dyspepsia none of
them have given so complete and gen
eral satisfaction as Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. and not least in Importance in
these hard times is the fact that they
are also the cheapest and give the most
good for the least money.
