Proper Food for Weak stomachs.

The proper food for one man may
be all wrong for another. Every
one should adopt a diet suited to his
age and occupation. Those who
have weak stomachs need to be
especially careful and should eat
slowly and masticate their food
thoroughly. 1t is also important
that they keep their bowels regular.
When they become constipated or
when they feel dull and stupid after
eating, they should take Chamber
lain's Tablets to strengthen the
stomach and move the bowels. They
are easy to take and pleasant in
effect.
