WOMAN SUFFERS TOR
MENTS OF CONDEMNED

Without mentioning names or quoting
about the terrible suffering that they
have endured, think of the countless
thousands of suffering women in
America alone and you will realize that
woman suffers the torments of the con-
demned. Why is it that women who,
as young girls, We're healthy, robust
athletic specimens of strength and
vigor, few years later become physc-
al wrecks? What is the cause of it?
Ninety.nine times out of a hundred
this rapid decline Of physical health and
energy is not due to any disease or or.
ganiC disorder that is peculiar to wom-
en- alone. Ninety.nine times out of a
hundred the cause of the rapid decline
of your women's strength is the neglect
of Acid Stomach, and the pity of il is
that practically all the misery, agony
and loss of health and vitality that these
millions of women endure could be
avoided if only people would realize
what a frightfully dangerous condition
Acid Stomach is and how certain and
sure it is, if neglected, to make its vic.
Tins suffer the torments Of the con-
demned
Because the first symptoms of Acid
Stomach seem tmfling, nothing is done.
There is a little belching of gas and a
sense Of sourness in the stomach, loss
of appetite, bad breath, blotchy com.
pleXion with now and then a sense Of
dizziness with specks that seem to float
before the eyes, but the victim is not
alarmed. Then follows habitual or
chronic constipation, which allows
great accumulated masses Of undigested
food to clog up the system, causing
| dyspepsia, biliousness and a complete
| breakdown, resulting in loss of weight,
health and strength. Then comes the
most horrible mental depression imag-
Unable and after that eXcruciating, ag
onizing pains that bring the sweat out
on the forehead i'm great beads while
the hands and feet grow icy cold and
the once strong man or woman is left
| limp as a rag and far too weak and
| helpless to battle with life's problems or
take any part in the joy of existence.
If only everybody would take Pepsinol
before the breakdown comes. 1t is SC
much easier to prevent than to repair
| Pepsinol is the marvellous preventive OF
such conditions. It is scientifically ac
curate in its action. There is nothing
! like it as a reconstructive tonic anc
strength builder. 1t corrects the causes
of gas and the formation of acid in the
stomach 1t improves the appetite anC
general health almost Immediately. II
aids digestion, induces natural move
ments of the bowels and promotes
healthy, restful sleep. When you think

Genuine Pepsinol is made only by The

and is in strict accordance with the Med
ica Standards of the United States
