STRANGER THAN FICTION.
A Remedy Which Has Revolutionized!
the Treatment of Stomach Trou-

The remedy is not heralded as Il
wonderful discovery nor yet a secret
patent medicine, neither is 1t claimed
to cure anything except dyspe psla' IN
digestion and stomach troubles with
which nine out of ten suffer.
The remedy is in the form of pleasant
tasting tablets or lozenges, containing
vegetable and fruit essences, pure asep-
tic pepsin government tesD, golden
seal and diastase The tablets are sold
by druggists under the nameof Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets. Many interesting
experiments to test the digestive power
Of Stuart's Tablets show that one grain
OF the active principal contained IN
them is sufficient to thoroughly digest
900 grains OF raw meat, eggs and 9TH
cr wholesome food.
Stuart's Tablets do not act upon the
bowels like after dinner Fills and cheap
cathartios, which simply irritate and
inflame the intestines without having
any effect whatever in 6igesting food
or curing indigestion.
II the stomach can be rested and as
sisted in the work of digestion it Will
very soon recover its normal vigor, as
no organ is so much abused and over
worked as the stomach.
This is the secret, if there is any Sc
cret. OF the remarkable success OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tahlsts. remedy
practically unknown a few years ago
and now the most widely known OF any
treatment for stomach weakness.
This success has been secured en-
tirely upon It's merits rs a digestive
pure and simple. because there can pc
no stomach trouble il the food is
promptly digested.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets act en-
tirely on the food eaten. dtgesting II
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 digestive
power which weak stomachs lack and
unless that lack is supplied it is useless
to attempt to cure by The use OF ton
ics,' pills and cathartics which have
absolutely no digestive mower.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be
found at all drug stores and the regu-
lar use Of one or two Of them after
meals will demonstrate their merit bet
ter than any other argument.
