And His Stomach

Digestion by Using Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets After Meals.

Whether or not we eat too much,
is a matter for individual judgment.
Benjamin Franklin tried the expert
ment of Twin on a handful of raisins.
But he discovered that the question
wasn't what he ate nor the quantity
thereof, but one of digestion and as
similation- The normal person eats
heartily, and with keen enjoyment.
That is because his mind doesn't an
ttcipate stomach trouble. And if he
does have an attack of sour stomach
or indigestion he knows that the use
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give
quick relief.

\ Gentleman of the ''OId school Who
Keeps Up With the Times.

Many people have poor teeth, weak
gums, sore teeth and other bother
some troubles that prevent a vigorous
masticatfon of food. And instead of
eating soft, mushy food that pals on
the appetite they go in for those savory
dishes, the very odor of which starts
the saliva and makes the stomach fair
ly reVel with anticipation.
This is but a natural condition
anything else borders upon the indif-
ference which fosters indigestion and
chronic dyspepsia.
1t may be safely said that it should
not be a question of diet or kind of
food. or teeth or even any of the re-
fexes which are supposed to have
their influence in deranging the stom-
ach. 1t is simply a matter of supply
ing the stomach and digestive organs
with those known assistants such as
pepSin, and hydrochloric acid. both of
which have a direct and powerful ac-
ton upon the contents of the stomach.
One grain of a single ingredient in
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
5000 grains of food. This saves your
stomach and gives it the rest it needs.
All muscles require occasional rest if
they are ever overtaxed. The stomach
