Kodol
For DZspepsia and INDIGESTION
IF you Suffer from Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Gas on
the Stomach, Belchng, Sour Stomach, heartburn,
etc. little Kodol will Relieve you almost instantly

Kodol supplies the same digestive
Juices that are found in healthy
stomach. Being liquid, it starts
dig estion at once.
Kodol not only digests your food,
bus helps you enjoy every mouthful
you eat.
You need sufficient amount Of
good, wholesome TODD to maintain
strength and health.
But, this food must be digested
thoroughly, otherwise the pains of
indigestion and dyspepsia are the
result.
When your stomach cannot do its
work properly, take something to
help your stomach. KodOl is the
only thing that will give the stom-
ach complete rest.
Why? Because Kodol does the
same work as strong stomach, and
does it in q natural way.

So, don't neglect your stomach.
Don't become q chronic dyspeptic.
Keep your stomach healthy and
strong by taking a little Kodol.
You don't have to take Kodol all
the time. You only take it when
you need it.
Kodol is perfectly harmless.
