stomachs are strong enough 10 grnpplc
with all conditions of restaurants, hotels,
clubs, dcpots and banquets. The safe
plan is 60 be provided with Stuart's Dys--
pcpsia Tablets, that you may eat rich and
pelatsblc food served or selected and
not be troubled with gas, sour risings or
such forms Of indigestion. These tablets
digest food, they assist the stomach sccre-
tions and for this reason people who travel
away from horne and must eat as it II
served may play safe by taking one or
each meal.
You can get those tablets in any drug
