Good Cheer Aids
Digestion OF Food
Dyspepfics Can Make the Resi- OF
the Family Happy by Using
q LaT0tipe-TOrlic

The temper of the family and the
good cheer around the table depend so
much on the good digestion of each
Individual present that the experiences
of some former dyspeptics who over
came their trouble should be of inter-
est to those now suffering in this
way.
The best advice one can give-but it
Is advice that is seldom heeded-is to
eat slowly and masticate each mouth
full carefully. However, if slow eating
and careful mastication fail the next
wells Syrup Pepsin. This remedy is
an excellent digestant, and in addition
to helping in the digestion of the food,
acts gently on the liver and bowels,
Kidding them Of the accumulation Of
waste that should long ago have been
passed off. 1t is safe, reliable, pleas
hnt-tasting, and results are guaran-
teed.
Maj. S. Martin, of Joplin, Mo-, now
n, thinks DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
has helped him to a longer and hap
pier life. He has not felt so good in
years as he has since taking this ex-
cellent medicine, and in spite Of his
n years he says he feels like boy.
1t is the ideal remedy for indiges-
ton, no matter how severe: constipa-
tion, no matter how chronic, bilious
ness, headaches, gas on the stomach,
drowsiness after eating and similar

Loss of Appetite.

Is the final signal of disorder and
decay. The usual loss of appetite
is often caused by functional distur-
Dances in the stomach. The stomach
fails to do the wor,- required, the
appetite is gone, and the body suf-
rers from lack Of nourishment. Such
a stomach needs to be cleaned and
sweetened. Meritol Tonic Digestive
is made especially to assist the stom-
ach to digest food, and promote a
healthy appetite. This remedy is
