SUPERIOR MERIT.
Remarkable Curative Properties OF
Remedy for indigestion and Stom'
ach Weakness.

Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, prepar-
alton for the cure of dyspepsia and the
various forms of indigestion and Stom-
ach trouble. owes it's great success as
a cure for these troubles to the fact
that it is prepared for disease and
weakness of the stomach and digestive
organs only, and is not recommended
or advised for any other disease.
1t is not a cure-all, but for any
stomach trouble it is undoubtedly the
safest, most sensible remedy that can
be advised with the prospect of per-
manent cure. 1t is prepared in tablet
form, pleasant to taste, composed of
vegetable and fruit essences, pure pep
sin and Golden Seal, every one of
which act effectively in digesting the
food eaten. thereby resting and invig-
Grating the weak stomach; rest is ma
lures cure for any disease, but you
cannot rest the stomach unless you put
into it something that will do its work
or assist in the digestion of food.
That is exactly what Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets do, one grain of the d.
gestive principle contained in them
will digest 5000 grains of meat. eggs
or similar wholesome foods, they will
digest the food whether the stomach is
in working order or not, thereby nour-
ishing the body and resting the stom-
ach at the same time. and rest and
nourishment is natures cure for any
weakness.
In persons run down in flesh and APP
petite these tablets build up the
strength and increase flesh. because
they digest f1esh-forming food which
the weak stomach cannot do, they in
crease the flow of gastric juice and
prevent fermentation, acidity and sour
watery risings.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets can be
found at all drug stores at so cents per
package.
