A Positive Cure for Dyspepsia. This may read as though we were put ting It a little strong, because it Is gen erally thought by the majority of people that dyspepsia In lis chronh- form is In curable, or practically so. Hut we have long since shown that dyspepsia Is cur able, nor Is It suh a ditiicult matter as It first appears. The trouble with dyspeptics Is that th.y are continually dieting, starving themselves, or going to opposite extremes or else deluging the already over burd ened stomach with "bitters." "after din ner pills." etc, which Invariably Increase the diflb ulty even If In some cases they do give a slight temporary relief. Hu h treatment of the stomach simply make matters worse. What the stomach wants Is a p-st. Now how can the stomach become r-sted. recuperated and at the same time th- body nourished and sus tained. This Is the great secret and this Is also the secret of the uniform success 01 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. This Is a comparatively new remedy, but Its suc 1 ess and popularity leaves no doubt as to Its merits. The tald'-ts will dlg-st the food any way', regardp-ss of the condition of th stomach. The sufferer from dyspepsia according to directions is to eat an abundance of good, wholesome food and use the tablets before and aft-r each m'-al and the result will be that the fooil will be digested, no matter how ban your dyspepsia may be, because as before stated, the tablets will digest the food even If the stomach Is wholly Inactive . To Illustrate our meaning plainly, If you take l.Wrt grains of meat, eggs or ordinary food and place. It In a temperature of OS degreed, and put with It one of Stuart's Dyap. psla Tablets It will dlg-st the meat or eggs almost sif perfectly as If the meat was enclosed within the stomach. The stomach may be ever so weak yet these tablets will perform the work of digestion ami the body und brain will Im properly nourished and at the same time a radical, lasting cure of dysp.-p.ila will be made because the much abused elom-ui-h will be given, to some extent, a much needed rr-at. Your druggb.t will tell you that of the many remedies ad vertised to cure dyspepsia none of them has given so complete and general al Isfactlon as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and not the least In Important e In these hard times Is the fart that they an- also the cheapest and give the most good for the least money.
