A Startling Statement
New York Medical Au-
thorities Claim Dyspepsia
Causes G. Consumption.

The post mortem statistics OF the big
New York hospitals show that some
cases of consumption are due to un-
checked dyspepsia, especially when the
victim was predisposed to tuberculosis:
Dyspepsia wears out the body and
brain, the weakened, irritable stomach
is unable to digest food, the body does
not receive the required nourishment,
constipation ensues and the victim be-
comes thin, weak and haggard. As a
result. the body becomes fertile held
for the germs of disease to lodge and
flourish.
Therefore, the person who permits
dyspepsia to progress unhindered Is
guilty of contributing toward the de-
velopment of one of the most insidious
and fatal diseases known to mankind.
Dyspepsia is durable if properly
treated. w. P. Taylor sells a remedy
which he positively guarantees Will cure
indigestion or dyspepsia or he will pay
for all the medicine used during the
trial. This remedy is an absolutely new
medical discovery and has been named
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets. Certainly
no offer could be more fair, aud the offer
of w. P. Taylor is proof positive that
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are DEEPEN
dable and infallible remedy. Inasmuch
as the medicine will cost you nothing
if il does not benefit you we urge you
who are suffering with indigestion or
dyspepsia to try this remedy. A twenty
FIVE cent box OF Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
let's contains enough medicine for fifteen
DAYS treatment. Remember Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets are only sold In Al
exandria by w. P. Taylor, 6Io King
street.
