 Mrs. Pinlsham claims that there Is kind of dyspepsia that is caused by Arrangement of the female organ ism, and which, while it causes dis turbance similar to ordinary indiges- tion, cannot be relieved without a medicine which not only acts as stomach tonic, but has peculiar uterine tonic effects as well.
