There are millions Of people who
suffer almost daily from the horrors
of an acid stomach indigestion; sour,
gassy, stomach; distressing heart
burn; sickening food-repeating; pain
full bloat and that miserable, pulled
up, lumpy feeling after eating. Many
of these people have tried treatment
after treatment; medicine after medi-
cine; others have gone to doctors
and stomach specialists and some to
hospitals but in spite Of all of their
efforts they have obtained no lasting
relief or permanent cure.
These symptoms simply mean acid
stomach. If allowed to run on, they
are very likely to cause lot of SER
ious trouble. Dyspepsia, rheumatism,
govt, lumbago, sciatica, splitting
headache, dizzy spells, nervousness,
sleeplessness, mental depression, mel
ancholla, a feeling of listlessness and
al-goneness-thesea are Just few Of
the disorders which can be traced to
acid-stomach. AS a matter of fact,
acid-stomach is often the direct cause
of those almost incurable conditions
known as catarrh of the stomach, in
testinal ulcer, and cancer of the etom-
ach. The lives of those who suffer
from thescserious troubles are nothing
short of oaily agony. Surely, then,
you must see how important it is to
go atsonce to the seat of the trouble

Make This Test For
Acid Stomach

mouth does to the teeth-how It eats
right through the hard enamel and
causes them to decay. Think then
of the havoc that must be caused by
excess acid in the stomach!
Even if you are not suffering any
immediate stomach pains, but are not
feeling just as fit and fine as you
should, you should by all means make
this test: 60 to your drug store at
once and get n big box Of EATONIC.
1t is in the form of pleasant-tasting
tablets-you eat them like bit Of
candy. EATONIC is prepared for
just one purpose - correcting acid
stomach BY driving out the excess
acid. EATONIC literally absorbs
the excess acid. It brings inatant re-
lief from the pains of indigestion,
heartburn, belching, sour, gassy
stomach, bloat, etc. 1t makes the
stomach pure, sweet, cool and COM
Portable, puts it in a normal, healthy
condition, so that your food is proper
ly digestcd. You need every bit of
strength you can possibly get out Of
the food you eat-and EATONIC
helps you get it.
Don't put this test off if you value
your future good health and happi-
ness. You run no chance at all be-
cause EATON1C is absolutely guar
anteed to give you relief or your

The cost is q mere trihe.
