YOU Will Be AL SMILES AGAIN
Forget Your Stomach and You'll Have
a Santa Claus Face.
How to Do 1t.

IF there is one rbing more than all
Others that will give a man forlorn
and friendly appearance and make MN
morbid and cranky" and disagreeable,
that thing is dyspepsia. 1t makes one
forget his friends and become morose
md irritable He is so wrapped up IN
his own misery that he is inconsider-
ate of every one else. Relieved of this
terrible and depressing ailment, he
again becomes a good fellow and a
man among men.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are be-
yond question the most effective ana
popular remedy ever offered to the suf-
ferers of this terrible disease. me
thousands and thousands cures they
have brought about and the enormous
Increase of their sales fully attest the
truth of this statement.
They are, above all natural RENE
dy. They possess exactly the same
properties that the gastric juices and
other digestive fluids OF the stomach
nossess and they actually do the d.
Eesiive work of the stomach and enable
that organ to rest and recuperate ana
become sound and we'll. They act IN
q mild, natural manner and cause no
6sstmrhance in the digestive organs.
They prevent any fermentation OF the
food which causes sour stomach. III
fact, under their influence the subject
forgets that ne has stomach and ms
resulting cheerfuiness presents great
con trast to his former detection.
