ton VIII be Gone in Five Minutes
The question as to how long you
are going to continue a sufferer from
Indigestion and Stomach trouble is
merely a matter Of how soon you be-
gin taking Diapepsin.
II your stomach is lacking In diges-
tive power, why not help the stomach
to do its work not with drastic drugs,
but a reinforcement OF digestive
agents such as are naturally al work
in the stomach.
People with weak stomachs should
eat Diapepsin after meals and there
will be no more Indigestion, no feel
ing like a lump of lead in the stom-
ach, no heartburn, Sour risings, Gas
on Stomach or Belching of undigested
food. Headaches, Dizziness or Vomit-
ing, and, besides, what you eat will
not ferment and poison your breath
with nauseous odors. All these
symptoms resulting from sour stom-
ach and dyspepsia are generally re-
lieved five minutes after eating one
Triangule of Diapepsin.
Go to your druggist and get so
cent case of Papes Diapepsin now,
and you will always go to the table
with a hearty appetite and what you
eat will taste good because your stom
ach and intestines will be clean and
fresh and YOU will know there are not
going to be any more bad nights and
miserable days for you. They fresh
en- you and make you feel like life is
worth living.
