"Pape's Diapepsin" relieves
stomach distress in
five minutes.

You don't want slow remedy when
your stomach is bad--or an uncertain
one-or a harmful one--your stomach
is too valuable; you mustn't injure 1t
with drastic drugs.
Papes Diapepsin is noted for its
speed in giving relief; It's harmless
ness; its certain unfailing action in
regulating sick, sour. gassy stomachs.
Its quick relief in indigestion, dyspep-
sia and gastritis when caused by acid
ity has made 1t famous the world over.
Keep this wonderful stomach sweet
ener in your home-keep it handy-get
a large fifty-cent case from any drug
store and then II anyone should eat
something which doesn't agree with
them: If what they eat lays like lead
ferments and sours and forms gas:
causes headache, dizziness and nausea !;
quotations Of acid and undigested food
remember as soon as Pape's Diapep-
sin comes in contact with the stomach
II helps to neutralize the excessive
acidity. then all the stomach distress
caused by 1t disappears. It's prompt
ness, certainty and ease in overcom-
ing such stomach disorders is a reve-
lation to those who try it-Adv
