IS A SERIOUS MATTER.
The Most Serious and Fatal Diseases
Arise from Indigestion.

Chronic indigestion or DYSPEPSIA. while
q very common trouble has fo'
some time been looked upon by able
physicians as a serious thing, and that no
time should be lost in treating it prop
erly at the start, because recent re-
searches have shown that the most
serious. fatal and incurable diseases have
their origin in simple DYSPEPSIA or indi-
gestion.
Diabetes is simply one form Of indi-
gestion. the sugar and starchy food not
being assimilated by the digestive or
eans. In Bright's disease the albumen
is not properly assimilated.
While consumption and Dyspepsia are
twin diseases, and it is beyond cues
ton that dyspepsia makes a fertile soil
for the seeds Of consumption. But the
trouble has been to find remedy that
could be depended upon to cure dyspepsia,
a it is VIGOROUSLY obstinate and difficult
to cure.
This has been the question which has
puzzled physicians and dyspeptics alike,
until the question was solved three years
ago by the appearance of a new dis
covery in the medical world known as
Stuart's Dyspepsia, Tablets. which it
was claimed was q certain, reliable cure
for every form of stomach trouble.
Physicians, however, would not accept
such statements without first giving the
new remedy many tests and carefully
observing results.
For three years the remedy has been
thoroughly tested in every section Of the
country and with surprising and salts
factory results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be hon
estly claimed to be a specific. radical
lasting cure for indigestion in the various
forms Of acid dyspepsia or sour stomach,
gas or wind on stomach, too much bile
undue fuilness or pressure after eating
and similar symptoms resulting from
disordered digestion.
Stuart,s Dyspepsia Tablets were not
placed before the public until three years
trial left no doubt as to their value and
they have recently been placed in the
trade and can be found on sale at all
druggists at the nominal price of so
cents per package.
No cNtravagant claims are made for
the remedies. It VIII not cure rheumatism,
pneumonia. typhoid fever nor anything
but Just what 1t is claimed to cure and
that is every form Of stomach trouble.
No dieting is necessary, good Wholesome
Good and plenty Of it, and you may rest
assured that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
will digest II. Druggists claim for 1t that
it is a pleasure to recommend 1t to d.s-
peptics. because it gives such universal
satiSfa ctf0u.
