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 aged of IS or go. you will
find that he is a light eater. Be as
careful as you will. however, you will
occasionally 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 enable
it to perform its functions naturally.
They also cause a gentle movement of
the bowels.
