NEEDLESS ALARM.

Here's poor man coughing away his
lungs-at least SO his relatives think
It's cough, cough; hack, hack, hack;
all day and sometimes all night.
Must be consumption" think the
alarmed ones.
And Of course, there is always pos
sibility that they may be right.
But in most eases, they're wrong;
because dyspepsia is so much more
common than consumption.
And dyspepsia causes chronic cough,
just like consumption.
The dyspeptic cough, 1t is we'll to re-
member, can be quickly cured by Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets.
No need to be alarmed about it, un-
less you make up your mind to neglect
1t.
Then, indeed. you must look out for
danger; for the dyspeptic often grows
into a consumptive cough if neglected,
by the constant lung irritation which it
causes.
So. the best way is to waste no time
but begin at once the use of these
famous little tablets, the timely use
Of which has saved many a sick person
Z.
Remember. however, if you please,
positively NOT cure consumption, but
prevent it.
OF course. they can always be de-
pended on to cure all the other symp-
toms Of indigestion.
They are a universal cure, for one
universal disease.
| They cure nothing else; but what
they do. they do thoroughly and well.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
result OF the most thorough investi-
CATION into the inside causes and the
cure, of indigestion, that has ever been
attempted.
They have solved a problem, the
answer to which a hundred thousand
physicians in America are today CROP
ing for in vain.
They cure the most severe, long
continued, chronic. complicated cases OF
indigestion that can be found. They
are far ahead Of the most modern med
ical practice, because the most success.
full physicians Of the day, in the cure
OF diseases Of the digestive organs, are
using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets as q
basis for their success.
They stoop to Stuart's to conquer.
And Stuart's lift them up, out of the
rut.
II, therefore, you are a victim of this
dread disease, which counts its victims
by the million. Brace up and take new
heart. for you cannot fail to cure your
trouble. if you will only put your faith
In this great remedy, Stuart's Dys.
pepsia Tablets
They are positively. frankly, truly. a
sure and permanent relief.
Try them.

When the Bowels are filled with undi-
gested food we may be a great deal
worse off than if we were half starved for
want of Food.
Because, food that stays too long in the
Bowels decays there, just as If it stayed
too long in the open air.
Well, when food decays in the Bowels,
through delayed and overdue action, what
happens?
The millions Of little Suction Pumps
that line the Bowels and Intestines then
draw Poison from the decayed Food,
instead Of the Nourishnent they were
intended to draw.
This Poison gets into the blood and,
in time. spreads all over the body, unless
the Cause of Constipation is promptly
removed.
That Cause of Constipation is Weak,
or Lazy, Bowel Muscles.

Cascarets act like Exercise on the
Muscles of the Bowels, and make them

Muscles to act naturally.
The stronger these Muscles propel the

food act on the flow Of Digestive Juices.
The more Of these Juices that act on
