that he received an order from Presi-

To unquestionably prove to the peo-
pie of Hammond that indigestion and
dyspepsia is durable and that Rexan
Dyspepsia Tablets VIII effect the cure,
We win furnish the medicine abso-
lutely free if it fails TO give complete
satisfaction to anyone giving it trial.
The remarkable success of Rexa1l
Dyspepsia Tablets is largely due to the
new and successful method of manu-
faeture. whereby the wen-known prop
critics of Bismuth. Subnitrate and Pep
sin have been combined with carmina-
tives and their agents
,Bismuth, Subnitrate and Pepsin are
recognized. by the entire medical pro-
fession as specifics for acute fndiges-
ton and dyspepsia.
The Pepsin used in Rexau Dyspepsia
Tablets is manufactured by a new pro
cess which develops its greatest eff
cheney. Pepsin supplies 10 the diges-
tive apparatus one of the most important
elements of the digestive fluid, and
exerts a tonic influence upon all the
glands which supply all the other ele-
ments necessary to proper assimilation
and digestion.
The carminatives add properties
which promptly relieve the disturb
ances and pain caused by undigested
food.
The perfect combination Of these in
gradients make a remedy absolutely in
comparable and invaluable for the com
ptete cure of indigestion and dyspepsia
We are so positively certain of this
that we sell RexaI Dyspepsia Tablets
