Stomach Troubles

So.called stomach troubles, such as indi-

retain food, are in probably nine cases out
Of ten simply evidence that fermentation,
the result Of excess acid is taking place
IN the food contents Of the stomach causing
the formation Of gas. Wind distends the stom-
ach and causes that full. oppressive feeling
sometimes known as heartburn. while the acid
irritates and infames the delicate lining OF the
stomach. The trouble lies entirely In the eX-
cessive seer ion of acid and the fermenta.

ACUTE AND CHRONIC
RHEUMATISM

The exact cause OF rheumatism is un-
known, though it Is generally believed TO
be due to an excess ofuric acid In the blood.
Il may be also said with equal truth that no
remedy has been found which is specihc
in all cases In fact the literature OF rheu-
matism shows that there are but few drugs
which have not been given trial. In the
hands OF one observer we ind that certain
drug has been used with the utmost salts
faction: others have found the same remedy
to be a great disappointment. All physi-
clans however agree that every method OF
treatment is aided by the administration OF
some remedy to relieve the pain and quiet
the nervous system and Dr. W. 8. Bchultze
expresses the opinion of thousands OF prac-
titioners when he says that anti-kamnia
tablets should be given preference over ell
other remedies for the relief of the pain in
all forms of rheumatism. These tablets can
be purchased IN any quantity. They are
also unsurpassed In headaches. neuralgias
and all pain. Ask for AK Tablets.
