your Pharmacist and ask him to
open a 5O-cent case of Pape's Dia-

minutes there is left any trace of
your stomach misery.
The correct name for your
trouble is Food Fermentation-food
souring; the Digestive organs be-
come weak, there is lack of gastric
juice your food is only half digest
ed, and you become affected with
loss of appetite, pressure and full
ness after eating, vomiting, nausea

taste in mouth, constipation, pain
in limbs, sleepnessness, belching of

thing temps you, or you belch gas

lead on your stomach, you can
make up your mind that at the
bottom of all this there is but one
cause-fermentation of undigested
food.
Prove to yourself, after your
next meal, that your stomach is
as good as any that there is moth
ing really wrong. Stop this fer
mentation and begin eating what
you want without fear of discom-
fort or misery.
