ACTUAL
Facts About Indigestion and Its Re.
lief That Should Interest You.

Although Indigestion and Dyspepsia
are so prevalent, most people do not
thoroughly understand their cause
and cure. There is no reason why
most people should not eat anything
they desire - if they will only chew
it carefully and thoroughly. Many
actually starve themselves into sick
ness through fear of eating every
g~ood-looking, good-smelling, and good
tasting food. because it does not agree
with them.
The best thing to do is to train your
self to digest any good food.
We believe We can relieve Dyspep-
STA. We are so confident Of this fact
that we guarantee and promise to
supply the medicine free of all cost to
every n who will use it, who Is not
perfectly satised with the results
which it produces. We exact no
promises, and put no one under any
obligation whatever. Surely, nothing
could be fairer. We are located right
here and our reputation should be
sufficient assurance of the genuine,
ness of our offer.
We want every one troubled with
Indigestion or Constipation in any
form to come to our store and buy a
box of Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets.
Take them home and give them a
reasonable trial, according to direc-
tions. Then, if not satisfied come to
us and get your money back. They
are very pleasant to take; they aid to
soothe the IRRITABLE stomach, to
strengthen and invigorate the diges-
and natural bowel action, thus lead
ing to perfect and healthy digestion
and assimilation.
A 25c. package of ReXall Dyspepsia
Tablets furnishes IS days treatment.
III Ordinary cases, tnlS is Sultlclent to
produce a cure. In more chronic
cases, a longer treatment, OF course,
is necessary, and depends upon the
severity of the trouble. For such
cases, we have two larger sizes which
sell for soc. and $1.00. Remember,
you can obtain Rexall Remedies in
this community only at our store
