lCATARRH OF THE STOMACH,
A Pleasant. Simple. But Safe and EGectuaI
Cure for 1t.

Catarrh of the stomach has long
been considered the next thing to in
durable. The usual symptoms are a
full or bloating sensation after eat
ing, accompanied sometimes with
sour or watery risings, formation
of gases, causing pressure on the
heart and lungs and difficult breath
ing, headaches. tickle appetite. nerv-
BUSINESS and a general played out.
languid feeling.
There is often n foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue, and if the in
terror of the stomach could be seer.
it would show a Shiny, infiamcd con
dition.
The cure for this common and OBJ
stinate trouble is found in treat
ment which causes the food to be
readily, thoroughly digested before il
has time to ferment and irritate the
delicate mucous surfaces of the stom-
ach. To secure a prompt and healthy
digestion is the one necessary thing
to do and when normal digestion is
secured the catarrhal condition will
have disappeared.
According to Dr. Harlanson the
safest and best treatment is to use
after each meal tablet, composed
of diastase, aceptic pepsin, a little
nuX, golden seal and fruit acids.
These tablets can now be found at
all drug stores under the name of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not
being a patent medicine can be used
with perfect safety and assurance
that healthy appetite and thorough
digestion will follow their regular
use after meals.
II. S. Workman, Chicago, ILL.,, writes:
"Catarrh is a local condition result
| ing from neglected cold in the
head, whereby the lining membrane
of the nose becomes inflamed and the
poisonous discharge therefrom pass
| ing backward into the throat reaches
the stomach, thus producing catarrh
of the stomach. Medical authorities
prescribed for me for three years for
catarrh of stomach without cure, but
today L am the happiest of men after
using only one box of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets. l can not find appro-
feeling. l have found flesh, appetite
and sound rest from their use"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest preparation as well as the sim
plest and most convenient remedy for
any form of Indigestion, catarrh of
stomach, biliousness, sour stomach,
heartburn and blOating after meals.
