To understand what Stuarts Dyspep-
sia Tablets are composed of is to real
ize that when they reach the stomach
they dissolve into digestive juices just
as desired by Nature. They hold ingred-
tents which the healthy stomach is
supplied with and the unhealthy stom
ach lacks.
These natural qualities have a great
digestive influence upon all food One
grain of one ingredient contained in
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is sufficient
to digest 5000 grains of food.
When you have given this single
thought consideration you will then un-
destand why 1t Is that Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets are the greatest stom-
ach and dyspepsia remedy known to-
day
Thousands of stomach sufferers all
