Chronic Insomnia
And indigestion
The One Is Almost Always Associated
With and Caused by the Other.


Sleep has been fittingly called tired
natures sweet restorer.' 1t Is a condi-
ton In which the involuntary functions
such as nutrition, circulation, respira-
ton etc. go on as usual, while the
voluntary powers are in repose, and the
system undergoes needed repairs. NO
one has ever been known to live longer
than three weeks without sleep. 1t is as
necessary in physical economy as food
and drink.
Insomnia or chronic sleeplessness is a
symptom with which nearly every suf-
ferer from dyspepsia Is annoyed, either
constantly or at frequent and irregular
intervals. This inability to sleep normal
ly is a very prominent manifestation of
indigestion, and exhibits itself In differ
ent forms. l In some cases sleep may
come at its accustomed time, but 1t does
not bring repose, and the person awakens
entirely too soon, and is unable to fall
asleep again. In others, the victim lies
awake practically all night, tossing and
rolling and finally drops into troubled
and unrestful slumber at daybreak Still
others, though they may apparently sleep
soundly, are annoyed with the incubus
of nightmare, with its horrors of over
whelming waves, falls from precipitous
heights and attacks by Infatuated and
implacable monsters.
All of these distressing symptoms are
traceable to an irritated and enfeebled
stomach, and the same Is true of grind
ing the teeth, and twitching and jerk
ing of the muscles during sleep
Insomnia is rarely disease by itself,
but Is nearly always a symptom of an
other disease such as dyspepsia, and in
treating this complaint many persons In
their efforts to woo the god of sleep"
resort to the use of such hypnotics, Sc
datives, soporifics and narcotis as the
bromides, choloral hydrate, Dover pow
ders and even morphis.
No greater mistake than this could well
he made and the reckless use of such
drugs has caused many a sudden DEATH
while in other cases, even moderate use
has set I'D an incurable drug-using habit
among those who resorteo TO tne use
of sleeping powders"
To cure insomnia or sleepiessness the
object should be to remove the cause,
and as dyspepsia is the underlying cause
in large percentage OF cases, no better
or safer remedy can be employed than
STUARTs DYSPEPSIA TABLETS. By
digesting every particle OF food In tho
stomach, the active and exciting cause
of insomnia is cut short at It's source
and removed.
These tablets contain only wholesome
| ingredients and there Is no danger of
| falling into drug-using habits from their
use. Every sufferer from insomnia should
| avoid the egregious error Of using hyp-
| MOTTO drugs, as they never cure the trou-
BILE. but only make matters worse In the
| end.
Begin taking Etuart's Dyspepsia Tab
| let's at once using one or two after each
meal, and the same number at bedtime
| IT IL also well to have box OF these
powerful digestives close at hand during
the night, 30 that in case you are trou-
| hled with dyspeptic-insOmnia, uneasiness
| in the stomach, or any other symptom
| Of indigestion quick relief may be OBJ
| tanned.
