Not with drugs, but with a REIN
forcement OF digestive agents such,
as are naturally at work in the stOm-
ach? Scientific analysis shows that
digestion requires pepsin. heterogeneous
ferments, and the secretion of hydro
chloric acid. When your food fails
to digest, It is proof positive that
some of these agents are lacking in
your digestive apparatus.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain
nothing but these natural elements
necessary to digestion and when
placed at work in the weak stomach
and small intestines. supply what
these organs need They stimulate
the gastric glands and gradually
bring the digestive organs back TO
their normal condition.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have
been subjected to critical chemical
tests at home and abroad and are
found to contain nothing but natural
digestives.
