! Appetite is Just a natural desire
| for food. Loss of appetite or stomach
/ distress after eating indicate indi-
! gestion or dyspepsia Over-eating is
habit very dangerous to person s
! good general health, and Unsuitable
appetite is a sure symptom of dia-
| betes.
1t is not what you eat but what
you digest and assimilate that does
you good Some of the strongest,
heaviest and healthiest persons are
moderate eaters.
There is nothing that will create
sickness or cause more trouble than
disordered stomach, and many
people daily contract serious mala-
dies simply through disregard or
abuse of the stomach.
We urge everyone in Waxahachie
who is suffering from any stomach
arrangement, indigestion or dyspep-
STA, whether acute or chronic, to try
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, with the
distinct understanding that we Will

or formality, if after reasonable use
of this medicine, they are not per-
fectly satisfied with the results. we
recommend them to our customers
every day, and have yet to hear or
anyone who has not been benefited
by them We honestly believe them
to be without equal. They are made
from the prescription of physician
who devoted all his time TO the study
and treatment OF stomach troubles.
They give very prompt relief, neu-
tralize the gastric juices, strengthen
the digestive organs, create good d.
gestion and assimilation, naturally
regulate the bowels, promote perfect
nutrition, and create a permanent
cure of all unhealthy symptoms.
We urge you TO try Csc box OF
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, which
gives | 5 days treatment. At the end
of that time, your money will be re-
turned to you if you are not salts
fed. OF course, in chronic cases
length of treatment varies. For such !
