These remedies are combined in lozenge
FORM pleasant to take and will preserve
their good qualities indefinitely, whereas
all liquid medicines rapidly lose what
ever good qualities they may have had
as soon as uncorked and exposed to the
air.
This preparation is called Stuart's Dys-
repsia Tablets and it is claimed that one
of these tablets or logenges win digest
from 800 to 1900 times it's own weight of
meat, eggs and other Wholesome food.
And this claim has been proven by ac-
tual experiments in the following man
ner: A hard boiled egg cut into small
pieces was placed in a bottle containing
warm water heated TO ninety-eig de-
grees Tor blood heat. one of these Tab
lets was then placed In the bottle and the
proper temperature maintained for three
hours and a half, at the end of which time
the egg was as completely digested as it
would have been in q healthy stomach.
This experiment was undertaken to dem
Cnstrate what il would do in the bottle
it would also DO in the stomach hence
it's unquestioaable value in the cure of
dyspepsia api weak digestion. Very few
people are free from some form OF in
digestion but scarcely two will have the
same symptoms. Some will suffer most
from distress after eating, bloating from
gas in the stomach and bowels. others
have acid dyspepsia or heartburn. others
Falpitation or headaches, sleeplessnes,
pains in chest and under shoulder blades,
extreme nervousness as in nervous dys
pepsia but they all have same cause,
failure 10 properly digest what is eaten.
The stomach must have rest and assist
ance, and Stuart's DYSPEPSIA Tablets give
it both, by digesting the food for it and
in short time it is restored 10 its nols
NAL action and vigor. AT same time the
Tablets are so harmless that a child cav
take them with benefit. This new pre-
| paration has already made many aston
;s,hing cures, as for instance. the follow
ing:
After using only one package Of Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets | have received

EASY TO FIND

When you find a medicine
that makes your regular food
taste good, when you find a
medicine that strengthens a
weak stomach--then you know
you're going to put some flesh
on.
SCOTS Emulsion does these
things. We recommend it
whenever the system needs
more flesh. If you are thin
and able to eat begin regular
doses. That's your part.
SCOTS Emulsion will do the
rest. Not f1abby-but solid
flesh.
Well send you little to Try, il you Ike.
