DYSPEPSIA ON THE DECLINE
Sewers Dyspepsia Tablets Cure
Forty-nine Cases out of Fifty

Why anyone in Bennington should
continue to suffer with indigestion
when box of SEASER'S DYSPEP-
STA TABLETS will cure, is certainly
a mystery. j. NJ. Ayres has been sell
ing Seaver's Dyspepsia Tablets for
some time and know from actual ex-
perience right in my own store just
what SEAVER'S FAMOUS DYSPEP-
STA TABLETS will do, and If you in
uuire of J. NJ. Ayres, the druggist, he
will tell you he never knew remedy
to prove so decidedly beneficial in the
treatment of indigestion, dyspepsia,
palpitation, sleeplessness and other
forms of stomach trouble.
It certainly ought to give you con-
fidence when you know that every SOC
box of SEAVER'S DYSPEPSIA TAB
LETS contains 20 days treatment and
at the end of that time if you are not
decidedly benefited all you need to do
is to go back to the dealer and get
your money. SEAVER'S DYSPEP-
STA TABLETS are sold right on their
own merits. They cure Indigestion
simply by toning up the stomach and
digestive organs so that the food will
assimilate and give strength to the
system Just as nature intended SEA-
VER'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS are
such a good nerve tonic, too. Just try
a box and see If 1t don't give you new
energy, new ambition and new cour-
age to carry out your plans and daily
work. If it doesn't your money back.
