30 NOT WEAR A LONG FACE
It Is Great Handicap in All Hus-
iuess and Social Relations.

The man who looks as If he had lost
his last friend is in no danger of being
crushed by the jam of new ones unless
he CHEERS up" People are not going
out of their way nowadays to associate
with the man of mournful melancholy
appearance They are afraid he win tell
them his troubles and they steer clear Of
him as they all have plenty of their own
The most universal cause of the for
, lorn and hopeless appearance today is
dyspepsia. 1t units man for every
duty of life am causes him to become
despondent and gloomy and necessarily
his looks do not belle his feelings. He
appears cast down and detected and be-
comes burden to himself and human
ity in general.
z Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
dyspeptic's certain relief. They do the
work that his stomach is unable to do
and by relieving that organ Of its bur-
dens, permit it to regain its health and
strength and again become active and
useful in its functions They contain all
the essential ingredients that enter into
the digestive fluids and secretions of the
stomach and they actually take up the
work and do it just as healthy, sound
stomach would.
by this means a man can go right
ahead with his work and eat enough to
keep him in proper working condition
His system is not deprived of it's neces-
sary nourishment as it is in the case
Of the Starvation cure" or the employ
ment of some of the first class chicken
foods now ION the market Starvation.
even if it were good thing, could not
be continued long enough to effect a
cure; for disordered and worn-out
stomach is not going to become strong
and healthy in two or three days.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets act natural
ly because they contain natural digestives
The principal component parts are asep-
tic pepsin, malt diastase and other in
gradients with Ike properties that do the
work regardless Of the condition of the
stomach. There is no unnatural or vio-
lent disturbance of the digestive organs
as the result Of their action. In fact, the
existence of the stomach is entirely for
gotten as soon as they have had time to
begin their operations. They also pos
sess very curative and healing properties
and assist the stomach in getting WE'LL
while relieving it of its work. They
perform the duties of both nurse fand
physician
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale
Ry all druggists at so cents box and
there is very little danger of any drug
gist trying to sell you something else in
its place that is "just as good. They
are so well established and have done so
much good in the world that their name
has become a household word; so the
usual warning, Accept no substitute, ,
is unnecessary IN the case Of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
