Every drop of bleed, every bone, nerve and tissue in the tody can be renewed in but one way, and that is from wholesome food properly digested. There is no othT way and the idea, that a medicine in iu- if.

can purify the blood or supply new thuo and strong, nerves is ridiculous and on ai par with the fo1-d-rol that dysptpfia ur indigestion is a perm disease or that other fallacy, that a iseak stomach which re-fuses to digest food can be made so by irritating and ir.ftamlr.jr the by pills and cathartics. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure Indigestion, siur stomach, gas and bloitbi after meals, because they fvrr.tsh th? dipe-stlve principles which weak Ftotnachs lack, and unless the deficiency of repstn ar.d diastase is supplied it la useless to attempt to cure ptcmnch trojule ty tho use of "tonics." "pilis" and which have abscljtfiy no digestive power, and only effect is to jive a temporary stimulation. One grain of the nctiv principle In Stuart's Tablets will digest srains of meat, ftps and similar and exper'ments have s.hown that they win do this in a g.ass bottle at proper temperature, but. ef course, are naicit more effective in the stomach. There is probably no remedy tir.i- versaliy used as Stosri's Tablets becacst it is r.ot only the sick and ailing, ut well T'ri who use them at every Insure jerfect digestion ar.d assimilation of th focal.
