LUCY COBB GIRLS TO POT ON PLAY, Bat Doesn't It Look ReesooeMe? This may rend as though wo were put ting it a little strong, beoanse it is gen erally thought by the majority of people that Dyspepsia in lta ohronio form is inourable or praotioally so. Bat we have long since shown that Dyspepsia is durable, nor is it such a difficult matter as at first appears. The trouble with Dyspeptios is that they are oontinually dieting, starving themselves, or going to opposite extreme or else deluging the already over bar dened stomach with "bitters” "al dinner pills,” etc., whloh invariably orease the difficulty even If in sc oaaes they do give a slight temporary relief. Such treatment of the. stomach simply makes matters worse. What stomaoh wants is a resit. Now how oan the stomaoh beoome rested, recuperated and at the same time the body, .now* ished and snatalued.^ This is a great secret and this is also the secret of the uniform snooess of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. This is a comparatively n*w remedy bat Itb snooem and popularity leaves .no doubt as to its merit. The Tablets will digest the food any way, regardless of .oonditlan of stomaoh. The sufferer from dyspepsia according to directions, is to eat an abundance of good wholesome food and use tfae tab lets before and after each meal and the result will be that the food will be di- gested no matter how bad your Dyspep sia may be. because* as before stated,' the tablets will digest the food even if the stomaoh is wholly lnaotive. To illustrate our meaning plainly, !! you take 1,800 grains of meat, eggs1 dr ordi nary food and plaoe it ii* a temperature of 98 degrees, and pot with it one of Btnart’s Dyspepsia Tablets it Wlli digest the meat or eggs almost ss perfectly as if the meat was enclosed within the stomaoh. The etomaoh may be ever so weak yef these tablets will perform the^ digestion and the body and 'brain be properly nourished and st the sattttf time a radical, lasting enre of Dyspepsia Will be made beoanse the mifoh’MJttlfifil' stomaoh will be given, to joiqe extent, a • much needed rest.
