Food taken into thesstomach which.
from the nature Of the food or the con-
dition Of the stomach, is not digested,
Is worse than no food at all. This is a
true statement as far as it goes and
great many dyspeptics go only this
far with their reasoning. They argue
with themselves that because their
stomachs do not do the work given
them. they must be given less work;
In other words. they must be starved.
1t would be Just as sensible for bust
ness man who is unable to do all his
own work to cut down his business to
his own capacity, as it is for man to
starve himself to. relieve his stomach.
Thea sensible business man employs
help and goes forward with his bust
ness. Likewise the sensible dyspeDtic
will employ. help for his stomach and
give his body proper nourishment.
sStuart's Dyspepsia Tablets actually
do the work assigned to them. They
relieve weak and overwhelmed stom-
achs' Of a, great portion Of digestive ac-
ton. Their component. parts are iden-
teal with those Of the digestive fluids
and ssecretionss of the stomach and they
simply..take up the grind and carry on
the work Just the same as good,
strong, healthy stomach would do it.
ON this account Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are perfectly natural in their
action and effects. They do not cause
any. unnatural or violent disturbance
In the stomach or bowels They them
selves digest the food and supply the
system with all the nourishment con-
tanned inywllat is eaten and carry out
natures plans for the sustenance and
maintenance of the body.
How, much more sensible is this
method than that employed by many
sufferers from weak stomachs. BY this
means the body and brain get all the
good, nutritious food they need and the
man is properly nourished and equipped
to carry on his work and perform his
duties. He could not possibly be In
proper working condition by starving
himself or employing some new tangled,
insufficient food that does not contain
enough nutriment for a year-old baby.
A strong man doing strong work must
be properly fed and this applies to the
brain as well as the body.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, by re-
iieving the stomach of its work, enable
1T to recuperate and regain its normal
s,ealfh and strength. Nature repairs
tho worn and wasted tissues just as she
