There is a much closer connection between the stomach and brain than most people imagine. It is because of this close connection that indigestion, belching, sour, gassy stomach and other stomach miseries-all of which are sure signs of acid stomach-are so often followed by severe attacks of binding, splitting headaches.
 Nervousness, sleeplessness, irritabil- ity, ,mentaldepression ,melancholia and many other disorders which affect the brain can also nearly always be traced to the same sOurce-acid-stomach.
 So often you hear people say 'I am so nervous 1 think Pll fly to pieces;' or "Itseems l never get a good nights sleep any more, my nerves are all on edge" Little do they dream that acid stomach is the direct cause of their troubles because very often there are no pains in the stomach at all. So you see, you can't always judge an acid stomach condition by the way your stomach, itself, feels.
 If you are weak, nervous, unfit-if you are not up to your old time form If you lack your accustomed enthu- siasm, energy and pep-make this test and see if it isn't acid-stomach that is holding you back = robbing you of your health, strength and vigor. Get . big box of EATONIC-the wonder full modern medicine that so quickly puts an acid stomach to rights. It is in the form of pleasant tasting tablets that you eat like . bit of candy. IEATONIC rids the stomach of excess
