are so prevalent, most people do not
thoroughly understand their cause and

should not eat anything they desire
IL they will only chew it. carefully
and thoroughly Many actually -starve
themselves into sickness through fear
of eating every good-looking, good
smelling and good-tasting food, be-
cause it does not agree with them.
Dieting cannot cure dyspepsia. If
we refuse every article of food that
disagrees with us. before long we have
nothing left, and find ourselves chron-
ic dyspeptics.
We can cure dyspepsia. We are so
confident of this fact that we guaran-

medicine free of cost to everyone who
will use it, who is not perfectly salts
