A. Reasonable Plea
For The Stomach
IT Your Stomach is Lacking IN DI-
yestive Power, Why Not Help the
Stomach Do its Work-EspeciaI-
ly When It Costs Nothing
to Try?

Not with drugs, but with rein
forcement of digestive agents, such
as are naturally at work in the stom-
aeh? 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.
Stuarfs 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.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets have
been subjected to critical chemical
tests at home and abroad and are
found to contain nothing but natural
digestives.
