Sick Headache and Often
sive Breath.

CIcK HEADACHE is the result Of arrested physis,egy Of the
- stomach, liver, or bowels. Instances are numerous Ia
which the subjects of sick headache and offensive breath have
never used alcohol or tobacco, or been guilty Of the least indis-
erection. to their knowledge, in their lives. and yet their br-aths
are laden with odors that will drive away from them in haste
their very best friends. It has been suggested that enc may Be
too regular in habit! The claim made Il land II has the sup
port of some phys;oaans) that nature requires . change. How
ever. We know that = feul breath can be overcome by rational
ueans-such, for example, rs the faithful use Of DR.. CaldweiPs
SYRUP PEPSIN. which enables nature to carry off the offensive
material from the digestive tract and set up a healthy function.
Those who suffer with sick headache frequently resort to
the use of headache powders which arc composed of poisonous
coal tar products which do relieve the suffering by duling the
sensations Of the sympathetic nerves which form a conmunica-
ton between the stomach and the brain, but such medicines
never remove the cause, and, to be candid, lower the aniaal vi
tally 90 az to render them dangerous, death having been known
to occur directly from their use.
The surcst plan by which to remove the causes of sick head
ache and prevent it is to take DIR. caidweii's SYRUP PEPS1N
when there Is no headache and thereby put the organs of d-
gestion In such a healthy condition as to foresta1i the suffering
which attends this common and distressing affection.
