Starvation seems a strange remedy for any
disease. Yet starvation by rigorous diet
was once generally resorted to in cases of
i ndigestion or other stomach trouble. Even
yet it is sometimes tried. Such a
remedy is worse than useless. Every
day of life consumes a portion of the tissues
cf the human body. The food we eat serves
to repair this waste and you can't build up
the" system by withholding material for the
purpose. If the stomach is' in such condi
tion that it cannot furnish it the task must
be performed without the stomach's assist
ance. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is the only
preparation which accomplishes this. There
are others which act on certain kinds of
food, but Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is the only
one which digests them all as the 6tomach
digests them. Man is eo constituted that
be m:eds a variety of food and to reduce this
variety always produces bad results.
In ninety-nine cases In a hundred Indiges
tion is due to lack of some of the elements
which constitute the natural digestive
juices, usually to the absence of hydrochlo
ric acid from the stomach. It is b y the ac
tion of these juices that food is reduced to
a form in which it can be transformed into
living tissue. With any of them lacking it
Is easy to see that the process of digestion
cannot be perfectly performed.
With the single exception of Kodol Dys
pepsia Cure all preparations for the relief of
indigestion lack certain of these elements.
Consequently they cannot digest all classes
?l fod- Kodol Dyspepsia Cure contains
them all. It will digest anything that the
healthy stomach can digest. It is nature's
own cure.
Don't resort to stimulating tonics. Such
drugs simply urge the already overworked
stomach to renewed exertions. It is like
spun-ing a tired horse. For a moment h
responds. Then Outraged nature reasserts
itself and he falls in a heap. Sedatives are
equally ineffective. At first they deaden
pain but afterward comes the reaction and
keener suffering than before.
What the stomach needs is rest. To ob
tain it a substitute must be found for the
natural digestive juices. Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure is the only substitute which accom
plishes nature's results by nature's own
methods. It gives the stomach perfect rest
by digesting what you eat. No dieting is
necessary. Eat all the good food you want,
build up the system and at the same time
relieve the stomach from all responsibility.
The rest will restore it to its natural condi
tion and soon effect a complete cure. This
is the only rational and common sens
method of aiding nature.

Gentlemen: I have been a great sufferer
for many years from indigestion which has
become almost chronic and have suffered
untold pains which were always worse after
eating a hearty meal. I took two bottles of
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure and am now a well
man and life seems worth living,.

Gentlemen: I want to say that your
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is the best remedy
for all stomach troubles that I ever used.
It is the only remedy I ever ueed with any
f:ood results. For years, I have been troub
ed with the severest form of dyspepsia,
at times compelling me to remain in bed
and causing me untold agony. 1 am com
pletely cured by Kodol Dyspepsia Cure and
I have recommended it to several friends
who have also purchased it with the same
results. I always offer to pay the purchase
price if it fails but so far have never paid.
The first dose relieves.
Geo. W. Lane, rewamp, Mich.
Gentlemen: For twenty years I suffered
the most agonizing pains with dyspepsia.
For years I regularly tried every doctor and
medicine that I could secure but without
relief, until at last I became convinced that

the very first dose and after taking six bot

Gentlemen: I have been afflicted for four
or five years with dyspepsia. I have tried
various remedies without any good results
and finally was induced to use Kodol Dys
pepsia Cure. I cannot say too much ki its
favor as one bottle cured me. I recommend
the remedy to all who suffer from the same
cause. David May lor, Windridge, Penn
Gentlemen: This is what I have to say
anxmt Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. About a
year ago I could not drink either tea oi- coffee,
drinking only hot water, and could eat but
very little food, until I began taking the
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure, and I t hen hogu n to
improve at once. After taking the Kcdol
Dyspepsia Cure during the summer I can
not only retain what food I eat. but also
drink either tea or coffee, and I have gained
so that I am hardly considered bv -.07 friends
as being the same woman. I cannot say too
much for what it has done for v.ie, and I
