Free Sample Digests
What Stomach Couldn't

When a person finds himself suffering
from chronic indigestion, there is Just
one Of two things TO do: Discontinue the
use OF food almost entirely or obtain
something that win digest the food for
you until your stomach muscles are in
working order again.
II Is possible to obtain remedy that
will digest food even when the stomach
can't and we can obtain the word OF
many reputable people to prove il. Since
indigestion is usually complicated with
constipation and liver trouble. it is nee
essary to get a remedy that has laxative
as well as digestive properties. and which
at the same time contains ingredients
that will tone and strengthen the stom-
ach and bowel muscles. Such a remedy.
according TO the testimony or people for
quarter Of a century. is DR.. Caldwelrs

any druggist at fifty cents or one dollar
