LESS DYSPEPSIA NOW — H ER E’S TH E REASON The fact that there is less dyspepsia and indigestion in this community than there used to be is largely, we believe, due to tlie extensive use of Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, hundreds of packages of which we have sold. No wonder we have faith in them. No wonder we are willing to offer them to you for trial entirely at our risk. Among other things, they contain Pep sin and Bismuth, two of the greatest diges tive aids known to medical science. They soothe the inflamed stomach, allay pain, check heartburn and distress, help to digest the food, and tend to quickly restore the stomach to its natural, comfortable, healthy state. There is no red tape about our guaran tee. It means just what it says. We'll ask you no questions. > our word is enough lot us. If Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets don't re store your stomach to health and make your digestion easy and comfortable, we want you to come back for your money They are sold only at the 7,000 Rexall Stores, and in this town only by us.
