FiatulenCy or Wind
On Stomach
AS 1t Is Commonly Named. Means
That Decaying Food Is
Making Gas

This most serious condition is very
prevalent and results most distress
ingly and fatally oftentineS. The stom-
acn in cases of f1atulency is unable to
digest the food properly. Decay sets
In. gases form, extend the stoma ch,
force their way downward into the
bowels, and if not relieved it extends
upward pressing against the lungs,
liver and heart, causing shortness OF
breath, belching, foul odors and many
times sudden death.
Foods which are filed with gases,
when taken into a deranged stomach
cause f1atulency rapidly, vegetables be-
ing especially given to this quality
Against such a condition the stomach
can do but little, because these foul
and poisonous gases affect it's glands,
muscles and tissues to such a degree
as to incapaciate it almost at once
These gases dfstend the stomach in
all directions, preventing the contract
ing muscles from doing their regular
duties, or if they do force the gas
from the stomach it goes elsewhere in
the system with even more harassing
results, and then the decaying mass
still remains to generate more gases.
The most effective methods for allay-
ing f1atulency is to remove the cause of
gas making. An emetic will do this but
the stomach will have the same trouble
the moment new food enters it.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets get at gas
food at once, digest it, prevent decay,
quickly reduce food to nourishment,
make good rich gastric fluid and pass
the digested food to the intestines. Civ
ing the stomach it's rest and the sys-
tenn it's nourishment. -Flatulency sim
ply cannot exist where these little
tablets are used. They build up the
stomach fluids so that it matters not
how many vegetables you eat or food
containing quantities of gas, the stom-
ach does its work well and quickly.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
everywhere and used the whole world
over by sick stomachs and stomachs
that want to eat heartily and yet not
get sick.
Every druggist carries Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets. price so cents per box
The demand for these little digesters
is constantly increasing. Forty thou
sand physicians in America and Can
ada use them and prescribe them.

been taken up with the petty questions
of selfish and idle lives which con-
tributed little or nothing romantic,
and little that was even mock-heroic.
Mr.. Sterling, he said, in meeting Mrs.
Atherton had welcomed an introduc-
ton he should have Stunned. Contfnu-
ing. Lord Guthrie discredited the idea
of a plot to get rid of Mrs Stirling by
forcing her to a guilty affection for
Northland, but he thought that her
letters to oNrthland were indicative
of guilty relations.
Lord Northland's counsel immed-
lately gave notice for an appeal Both
Lord Northland and Mrs Sterling

no argument that there is not just be-
