Bonaparte, brother of Napoleon, and for

its magnificent chateau rebuilt by Harris

Stunrt's Dyspepsia Tablets Will Do the Work of Two Three Stomachs.
 Affords Instant Relief
FREE TRIAL PACKAGE

When your food does not digest, when gases form, when you experience that uncomfortable feeling of fullness, when the breath is foul, the tongue coated and that sour taste is in the mouth-take a Stuarts Dyspepsia Tab hot and watch how quickly every one of these symptoms disappear. All that was needed was to digest that lump of food in your stomach--and the glands, whose duty it is to supply the gastric juices, had simply given out from over work So when you took that little tablet you were supplying exactly what was necessary to complete the process of digestion that the stomach had be- gun but was unable to finish.
 If you would continue to take a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet after each meal for awhile, your stomach would have a chance to rest up and get well and strong again.
 Try just one box and you will never want to be without this wonderful little remedy, for stomach troubles. >N<uart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain an inAredient. one grain of which will di- gest EQ00 grains of food. They are so entirely harmless because they have absolutely no effect on the system one way or another except to do just the one thing-digest food.
 10000 physicians use and recom- mend this National Remedy. Every drug store everywhere sells and recom- mends Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. The price is 50 cents per box. A sample will be sent free if you will write F. A. Stuart Co.,. 150 Stuart Bldg. Marshall, Mich.
