This Will Interest
Stomach Sufferers
Says Indigestion comes from an
excess of hydrochIoric
acid.

A well-known authority states that
stomach trouble and indigestion IS
nearly always due to acidity-acld
stomach--and not, as most folks be-
lieve, from a lack of digestive juices.
He states that an excess of hydro
chloric acid in the stomach retardS
digestion and starts food fermentation,
then our meals sour like garbage in
can, forming acid fluids and gases,
which initiate the stomach like toy
balloon. We then get that heavy,
iumpy feeling in the chest, we leruc-
tate sour food, belch gas, or have
heartburn, flatuience, waterbrash, or
nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar-
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in glass of
water before breakfast while it is eff
fervescing, and furthermore, to con-
tinue this for one week. While relief
follows the first dose, it, is important
to neutralize the acidity. remove the
gas-making mass, start the liver,
stimulate the kidneys and thus pro-
mote a free flow of pure digestive
juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia and sodium
phosphate. This harmless salts is
used by thousands of people for stom-
ach trouble with excellent results

CRITICISM OF
A "FAT" STORY

We were criticized for telling fat people
to tender" seventy-five cents to their
druggists for a large case of Marmola
Tablets. Several wrote in saying the use
of the word tender was incorrect, that
tender in such connection raised the
impression the druggist might refuse sew
enty-five cents as insufficient.
Now, isn't that odd? A few weeks ago
seventy-five cents was rendered" to
Broadway druggist and he did refuse it.
That is, he said he ha- no Marmola Tab
lets, whereas he did have seven cases.
But the wholesale house was closed, it
being on Saturday and he had to pre-
varicate to protect his regular customers,
who absorbed those seven cases later in
the day.
This elegant pharmaceutical adaptation
of that famous, fashionable fat reducer,
the Marmola Prescription (viz, u OF.
Marmola u OF. FL. Elk. Cascara Aromat-
ic, AZ az. Peppermint Water). is certain
ly having a remarkable vogue. Millions
of cases of tablets are sold yearly and
their fame grows. This is doubtless be-
cause of their harmlessness guaranteed
by the Marmola Co., s64 Woodward ave-,
Detroit, Mich). and sure ability to re-
move ten to sixteen ounces of fat mot
