NO MORE MISERY
In THE STOMACH
Indigestion, Gas, SOurneSS or
Dyspepsia Goes in Five
Minutes

If what you Just ate is souring on
your stomach or lies like a lump Of
lead, refusing TO digest or you belch
Gas and Eructate sour, undigested
food, or have o feeling of dizziness,
Heartburn. Fullness, Nausea, Bad taste
in mouth and stomach headache-this
Is indigestion.
A full case of Pape's Diapepsin costs
only 90 cents and will thoroughly cure
your out-of-order stomach. and leave
sufficient about the house in case some
one else in the family may suffer from
stomach trouble or indigestion.
Ask your pharmacist to show you
the formula plainly printed on these
50-cent cases. then you will under
stand why Dyspeptic trouble Of all
kinds must go, and why Diapepsin
always relieves sour, out-of-order
stomachs or Indigestion in five min
utes Diapepsin is harmless and tastes
like candy, though each dose contains
power sufficient to digest and prepare
for assimilation into the blood all the
food you eat; besides, It makes you go
to the table with a healthy appetite;
but what will please you most, It that
you will feel that your stomach and
intestines are clean and fresh. and pou
will not need to resort to laxatives or
liver pills for Biliousness or Constipa-
! tion.
This city will have many Diapepsin
cranks. as some people will call them,
but you will be cranky about this
splendid stomach preparation too, If
you ever try little for Indigestion or
Gastritis or any other Stomach
misery.
Get some Pape's Diapepsin now
this minute, and forever rid yourself
of Stomach Trouble and Indigestion.
