THE GREAT H OX LET. What II iix lev. 1 lie Ureal Kimlixli NclenllNt. Considered the Best Kl:trl in Lire. The great English scientist, Huxley, said the hesc start in life is a sound stomach. Weak slomac-s fail to digest food properly because they lock the proper quantity of digestive acids (lac tic and hydrochloric) and peptogenic products; the most sensible remedy in all cases of indigestion, is to take after each meal one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets because they supply in a pleasant harmless form all the elements that weak stomachs lack. The regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will cure every form of stomach trouble except cancer of the stomach. They increase flesh, insure pure blood, strong nerves, a bl ight rye and clear complexion, because all these result only from wholesome food well digested. Nearly all druggists sell Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets at 50 cents full sized pack age. Send for Free book on Stomach Trouh lea to Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich .
