NO SICK STOMACH
INDIGESTION, GAS
"Pape's Diapepsin" is the Quickest and
Surest Stomach Re-
lief.

You don't know what upset your
stomach-which portion of the food did
the damage-do you? Well don't both
err. If your stomach is in a revolt; if
sick, gassy and upset, and what you
Just ate has fermented and turned sour
head dizzy and aches; belch gases and
acids and eructate undigested food !;
breath foul, tongue coated-just take a
little Pape's Diapepsin to neutralize
acidity and in five minutes you wonder
what became of the indigestion and dis
tress.
Millions of men and women to-day
know that it is needless to have dys-
pepsia. A little Diapepsin occasionally
keeps the stomach sweetened, and they
eat their favorite foods without fear
If your stomach doesn't take care of
your liberal limit without rebellion; if,
your food is a damage instead of help,
remember the quickest, surest, most
harmless antacid is Pape's Diapepsin,
which costs only fifty cents for a large
case at drug stores. It's truly wonderful
it stops food souring and sets things
straight, so gently and easily that it is
really astonishing. Your stomach will
digest your meals if you keep acids neu-
tralized.-Adv.
