THE STOr1ACH is THE MAN.

A weak stomach weakens the man
because it cannot transform the food
he eats into nourishment. Health
and strength cannot be rxstored to any
sick man or weak woman without first
restoring health and strength to the
stomach. A weak stomach cannot di-
gest enough food to feed the tissues
and revive the tired and run down
limbs and organs of the body. Kodol
Dyspepsia cure cleanses, purities,
sweetens and strengthens the glands
and membranes of the stomach, and
