stomach MISERY
GAS. INDIGESTION
"Pape's Diapepsin" fixes sick,
sour, gassy stomachs in
five minutes.

Time 1t! In five minutes all stomach
distress will so. No indigestion, heart
burn, sourness or belching of gas, acid,
or quotations of undigested food, no
dizziness, bloating, or foul breath.
Pape's Diapepsin is noted for its
speed in regulating upset stomachs.
1t is the surest, quickest and most Ger.
tain indigestion remedy in the whole
world, and besides it is harmless.
Please for your sake, get a large
fifty-cent case of Pape's Diapepsin
from any store and put your stomach
right. Don't keep on being miserable
life Is too short-you are not here
long, so make your stay agreeable.
Eat what you like and digest it; en-
joy it, without dread of rebellion In
the stomach
Pape's Diapepsin belongs in your
home anyway. Should one of the fam
lily eat something which don't agree
with them, or in case of an attack of
indigestion, dyspepsia, gastritis or
stomach arrangement at daytime or
during the night, 1t is handy to give
the quickest relief known. Adv.
