Food Poisons
90 Per Cent of All Diseases the Result
OF Undigested Putrefying Foods

Men of affairs, women of society and
children with active brains are too
often sedentary in their habits. giving
little time to exercise. To this evil In
added that of high and irregular living
las a result. the stomach cannot stand
the demands made upon it, The abused
ard oyertaxed stomach does not prop
eriy do the work of digestion, food
taken in ferments and the poison per-
neates the whole system. The body
Loses in weight and becomes a prey for
the attack of whatever disease 1t may
encounter.
Did it ever occur to you how busy
that stomach of yours rs? It holds only
three pints, but in one year you force It
to take in 2400 pounds of material. digest
it and prepare it for assimilation into
the blood. No wonder it rebels when
overworked. We crowd it with steaks
and pastry. irritate it's juices with spides
aud acids, and expect the stomach to do
its work. 1t can't do it.
All over the inner layer of the stomach
are glands which secrete the juices neces-
sary to digestion. The entrance of food
into the stomach is the signal for these
glands to do their work. The more the
food and the more indigestible the
greater the demand upon them and upon
the muscles of the wall adjoining.
Think of the tons of high-seasoned
game, sweetmeats and appetizers
crammed into this little four-ounce
mill, and then wonder If you will, why
you are dizzy or nauseated or consti-
pated. Don't blame your stomach or
curse your fate that you should be born
so unfortunate. Blame yourself and
apply the remedy.
First get small package of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, taking one after each
meal and at bedtime. They are not a
medicine, but digestive. Your stomach
Is orn out and needs help. not medicine.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do the
work that the stomach fails to do. There's
enough power in one grain of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets to digest 5000 grains Of
ordinary food, so you needn't fear that
anything you eat will remain in your
stomach undigested.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will rout
the poison because they remove the cause
