So Forward.

The germ Is not a formal chap;
He mixes in a ruction,
Not waiting till mutual friend
Frames up an introduction.
Quite as familiar as you please
He lights upon a dandy
And after sampling the youth
Pronounces him the candy.
II. seated in an easy chair.
He sees the human brother
He does not hesitate and say
I'VE do not know each other"
He goes in on his rubber shoes,
Suspicion not arousing
And sticks around a week or so
If he enjoys the browsing.
No use to slap him on the wrist
Or cast suspicious glances
At Mr Germ as to the fray
In millions he advances.
And. though you feed him germicid'
In doses good and plenty.
He may succumb. but in his place
Will spring up ten or twenty.
The germ Is not, you understand,
The worst and meanest ever,
But he must live. and that enough
Excuse for his endeavor.
He cannot live by etiquette
or wait for invitations.
He would in that event. ! fear
BE mighty rhy on rations.

Common Sense
and a Tablet
Do Away With Dyspepsia, Stomach
Trouble and Make Meals
A Pleasure.

When your stomach goes on a strike
and mass meetings of indigestion are
held all over your body, then IL is that
you should sit up and take notice.
1t is clearly and only a question of
common sense-is this thing called
Dyspepsia. Take away. by abuse, over
eating, excesses and high living. the
things which the stomach needs and
you have dyspepsia and Indigestion;
then other maladies follow these-this
is. common sense.
The stomach is willing enough but
you won't let it do its work. You take
away the materials which are so peces-
sary for 1t to use.
Give back these materials and dys-
pepsia and Indigestion flee and the
whole machinery of man begins slowly
to move and do its work.
What the stomach needs is nerve
force. fluids for its digestion glands,
rourishment and power. All these ne
cessities IT takes from the blood. If
dyspepsia gives nothing to the blood,
the blood gives nothing to the stomach.
This is common sense also, pure,
simple and unalloyed.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are COM
mon sense pressed by high power into
tablets. In these tablets are powerful
essences which 60 into the stomach
digest food. stop gas making, prevent
decaying of food. enrich the gastric
juices. are absorbed by the blood and
thus give It strength to furnish a bet
ter fluid for digesting the next meal
Every physician knows what comprises
these tabelts; every druggist has the
same knowledge also. They are natural
common sense dieesters which do tbs
work for the stomach quickly and well
