Indigestion? Let
GoIdine No. l Help
You Get Rid OF 1t

Indigestion is disagreoable and
dangerous. Disagreeable because Of
the pain and aches which accompany
1t; because you cannot cat the things
you want to eat and should eat. Dan
gcrous because it puts your stomach
which enables germs of all diseases
to get a hold on you; dangerous be-
cause it causes a large quantity of
gas which often travels to the vicin-
lty OF your heart and might, if not
restricted, stop the heart action
through pressure and cause your
death without warming.
Therefore, it seems that indires-
ton, while apparently a slight all
ment, may cause dangerous and fatal
results and is something which
should be fought off at once. And
the simplest, easiest, surest way Of
fighting it off is to treat yourself with
Colding No. /, the herb remedy.
