Fail, the Medicine Costs Nothing.
i To -unquestionably prove to the peo-
pie of Marshalltown that indigestion
and dyspepsia is durable and that Rex
all Dyspepsia Tablets will effect the
cure, we will furnish the medicine abb
.solutely free if it fails to give COM
plete satisfaction to anyone giving it
q trial.
Dyspepsia Tablets is largely due to the
new and successful method Of manu-
facture, whereby the we'll known prop
critics OF Bismuth, Subnitrate and Pep-
sin have been combined with carmin-
atives and their agents.
Bismuth Subnitrate and Pepsin are
recognized by the entire medical pro-
fession as specifics for acute indiges-
tion and dyspepsia.
The Pepsin used in Rexall Dyspep-
sia Tablets is manufactured by a new
process which develops its greatest
efficiency. Pepsin supplies to the di-
gestive apparatus one of the most inl-
portant elements Of the digestive fluid,
and exerts tonic influence upon all
the glands which supply all the other
elements necessary to proper assim-
ilation and digestion.
: The carminatives add properties
which promptly relieve the distur7l
Dances and pain caused by undigested
food.
The perfect combination Of these In
gradients make remedy absolutely
Incompatible and invaluable for the
complete cure of indigestion and dys-
pepsia.
We are so positively certain Of this
that we sell Rexal Dyspepsia Tablets
on our own personal guarantee that
they will either cure you or cost you
