Is indigestion a Disease. Z

The best medical authorities say that
indigestion Is not always caused by a
diseased stomach, but may result from n
disordered liver, constipation, excite
ment, etc. The cause is of little conOe-
quence when Rydales Stomach Tablets
are taken, as they never fail TO digest
cess of gas. They relieve at once, belch-
ing, heartburn, sour stomach, fullness
ssfter eating, etc. Rydales Stomach Tab
Tots have specific tonic effect on the
stomach and organs of assimilation and
are guaranteed to cure the worst forms
