I'VE tried nearly everything trying
to cure him and he went of to the

Then he tried dieting and lived on

but even that failed to do him any
good and he just kept going from bad
to worse.

case as stubborn as his, and If there
ever was confirmed dyspeptic he was
one Of them, and l guess he would
have been one yet IL It hadn't been
for this 1anlac.

cine was when my father saw an ad-
vertisement In the papers from parties
