DO YOU ENJOY YOUR MEALS?
to Consider In the Search for Happiness and Health.

The burning question to you is. Are you getting out of life all the pleasure and the health you are entitled top If not, why not?
 No matter wheth CT every organ and member of your body is in sound state of health and strength, if your stomach is in any way disordered, you are not going to be yourself" You are going to be worried, out-of-sorts, nervous or sullen individual, whose ac- tions will reflect your condition inside and people will naturally avoid you.
 The world wants to smile and be cheerful, and unless you are cheerful and smile. at least occasionally, you will have few friends, fewer oppor- tunities, no success, and you will go down in defeat-defeated by dyspepsia and bad stomach.
 A good and thorough digestion has a quick, wonderful reaction upon the brain. You must have noticed it many times, for the brain and stomach are as intimately connected as a needle and it's thread, one can hardly be used to advantage without the other. If your stomach is slow and lazy in di- gesting your food, it will produce at once slow lazy and cloudy influence upon your brain. Mark it! If your stomach has absolutely quit work, and fermentation is poisoning your vitals as result, surely your brain is going to be sluggish and correspondingly de- pressed. No one need tell you that.
 But why continue to suffer all the miseries and torments that disordered stomach brings you?
 If your stomach cannot digest your food, what will? Where's the relief? Where's the cure?
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the af as all stomach troubles arise from in digestion and because one ingredient of Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tablets is able to thoroughly and completely digest 5000 grains of any kind of food, doesn t it stand to reason that these little Dyspepsia Tablets are going to digest all the food and whatever food you put into your stomach? Science nowadays can digest food without having to use pepsia Tablets are the result of this scientific discovery. They digest and digest thoroughly and well, anything and eyeryth ing yod eat.
 So, if your stomach refuses to work or can't work, and you suffer from eructations, bioat, brash, fermentation biliousness, sour stomach, heartburn irritation, indigestion, or dyspepsia of whatever form just take one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and see the difference. 1t doesn't cost you much to prove it. Then you can eat all you want, what you want, when ever you want, if you use these tablets, and you can look the whole world in the face with a beaming eye and you will have a cheerful spirit, pleasant face, vigorous body and clear mind and memory and everything will look and taste delicious to you. That's life.
 Get package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at any drug store on earth for soc g. package.
 Send us your name and address to- day and we will at once send you by F. A. Stuart Co., 150 Stuart Bldg, Mar shall. Mich.
