Have a Remedy.

Bad stomachs mean bad blood; bad
blood means Sallow unattMctive skin.
Why? The stomach in healthy con-
dition separates the nutritious matter
from the food and gives it to the blood
to supply the entire body with nourish-
ment.
If the stomach is not in a healthy con-
dition it does not separate from the food
the nutritious matter and it passes off
with the waste.
Thus the blood is impoverished and has
not sufficient nourishment to supply the
muscles. skin and body generally.
If you have belching of gas, distress
after eating, nausea, biliousness, ner-
vousness or foul BREATH then your stOm-
ach is wrong and you want the best pre-
