when the victim was predisposed to
tuberculosis.
Dyspepsia wears out the body and
brain, the weakened, irritable stom-
ach is unable to digest food, the body
does not receive the required nour-
ishment, constipation ensues and the
victim becomes thin. weak and bag
gard. AS a result, the body becomes
& fertile field for the germs of di-
seases to lodge and flourish.
Therefore the person who per-
mits dyspepsia to progress unhind-
eded is guilty of contributing to-
ward the development of one of the
most insidious and fatal diseases
known to mankind.
Dyspepsia is durable If properly
treated. Bruut a. Parman sell n
remedy which they positively guar
antee will cure indigestion or dys-
pepsia or they will pay for all the
medicine used during the trial.
This remedy is an absolutely new
medicine discovery and has been
named Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets.
Certainly no offer could be more
fair, and the offer of Bruni & Par
man is proof positive that Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets are dependable
and infallible remedy Inasmuch
as the medicine will cost you nothing
if 1t does not benefit you, we urge
you who are suffering with indiges-
ton or dyspepsia to try this remedy.
A twenty-five cent box of Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets contains enough
medicine for fifteen days treatment.
Remember Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets
are only sold in DEBORAH by Brunt
& Parman.
