An Old Mans Stomach.

As we grow older and less active,
less and less food is required to meet
the demands of our bodies. If too
much is habitually taken, the stomach
will rebel. When a man reaches the
advanced age of SIS or 80, you will find
that he is a light eater. Be as care
full as YOU will, however, you will oc-
casionallv eat more than you should
and will feel the need of Chamber
lain's Tablets to correct the disorder.
These tablets do not contain pepsin,
but strengthen the stomach and en-
able it to perform its functions nat
urally. They also cause a gentle
movement OF the bowels.
