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

your digestion easy and comfortable, we
