Catarrh of the Stomach.
A pleasant, Simple, But Safe and
Effectual Cure For It.

Catarrh Of the stomach has long been consid-
cred the next thing to incurable. The usual
symptoms are q full or bloating sensation after

watery risings. q formation OF gases, causing
pressure on the heart and lungs and difficult
breathing, headaches, tickle appetite. nervous
ness and a general played out languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the mouth.

could be seen 1t would show q Shiny, innamed
condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate trou-
BILE IL found In a treatment which causes the
food to be readily, thoroughly digested before
IL has time to ferment and irritate the delicate
mucous surfaces Of the stomach. To secure q
prompt and healthy digestion Is the one neces-
sary thing to do. and when normal digestion II
secured the catarrhal condition will have disap-
peared.
According to DR.. Harianson, the safest and
hest treatment IL to use after each meal tab

with perfect safety and assurance that healthy
