The hrist,n as Dinner.

In spite of the fact that the word dy-
spepsia means literally bad cook, it will
not be fair for many to lay the blame
on the cook if they begin the Christmas
dinner with little appetite and end it
with distress or nausea 1t may not be
fair for any to do that---let us hope 50
for the sake of the cook! The disease
dyspepsia indicates bad stomach, that
is weak stomach, rather than bad
cook, and for weak stomach there is
nothing else equal to Hoods Sa-sa parilla.
It gives the stomach vigor and tone, cures
dyspepsia, creates appetite, and makes
eating tae pleasure it should be.
