Stomach Sufferers
Squander Millions
In Search of Relief.
Trial Package Of stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets Free.

The world Is full of disordered
stomachs and 80 per cent OF the
money spent upon physicians and
drugs goes in an attempt to cure the
stomach.
People are made to believe that IN
order to gain health they must doctor
their stomachs and use cathartics. SO
the doctor gets his fee for the stom-
ach treatment and the druggist for the
physic, until the savings Of a life
time are exhausted and yet no cure.
Let's be reasonable.
The sick stomach is in every case
the result Of over eating, hurried mas
ticaticn and improper choice OF foods
The mucous lining all the way down
the food tract loses its sensftiveness,
and when food is forced down the
muscles fail to respond. They do not
churn the food as they should. The
glands no longer give out gastric juice
to dissolve the food and render II
capable OF assimilation. The man has
become dyspeptic.
