CATARRH OF THESTOMACH
A PLEASANT, SIMPLE. BUT SAFE AND
EFFECTUAL CURE FOR 1T.

EFFECTUAL CURE FOR 1T.
Catarrh Of the stomach has long been consid-
cred the next thing to incurable. The usual
symptoms are full or bloating sensation after
eating, accompanied sometimes with sour or wa
terry risings, formation of gases. causing pres
sure on the heart and lungs and difficult breath
ing, headaches tickle appetite, nervousness and
a general played out, languid feeling.
There is often foul taste in the mouth, coat
ed tongue and If the interior of the stomach
could be seen it would show a Shiny, indamed
condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate trouble
is found in q treatment which causes the food
to be readily, thoroughly digested before 1t has
time TO ferment and irritate the delicate mucous
surfaces Of the stomach. To secure prompt
and healthy digestion is the necessary thing
to do and when normal digestion is secured the
catarrhal condition will have disappeared
According to DIR. Harianson, the safest and
best treatment is to use after each meal q tab
let, composed of Diastase, Aseptic Pepsin, a
little Nux, Golden Seal and fruit acids These
tablets can be found at all drug stores un-
der the name of stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and,
not being a patent medicine, can be used with
perfect safety and assurance that healthy appe-
tte and thorough digestion will follow their reg.
ular use after meals.
The plan Of dieting Is simply another name
for starvation, and the use of prepared foods
and new tangled breakfast foods simply makes
matters worse. any dyspeptic who has tried
them knows.
AS Dr. Bennett says, the only reason l can
imagine why Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not
universally used by everybody who is troubled
in any way with poor digestion is because
many people seem to think that because a med
cine is advertised or Ii sold in drug stores or is
protected by a trade mark ii must be q hunbug
whereas as a matter of truth any druggist who
is observant knows that Stuart's Dyspepsis
Tablets have cured more people of catarrh of
the stomach indigestion, heartburn heart trou-
ble nervous prostration and down condition
generally than all the patent medicines and
doctors prescriptions for stomach trouble com
bined.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest prep
aration as well the simplest and most con.
yenient remedy for any form OF indigestion.
