Xo kind of dyspepsia is better marked than that known as "painful lndiges- tion." and it Is also a very common affection. Pain, generally of a dull character, is felt after meals, and along with the pain soreness at the pit of the stomach often exists, and In gome cases the soreness is permanent. Tha tenderness is commonly restricted to a spot in the middle line of. the body, immediately below the breast-bone. It often extends upward under tho bone, which consequently feels on pressure, or the tenderness is felt to- ward either side.

This tenderness ia commonly associated with an unpleas- ant feeling of heat "a burning: sensa- tion" aa it is termed by persons. There is also a "gnawing" and "drag- ging;" as well as various other anom- alous sensations complained of after taking food, and generally within an hour after eating. As might be supposed the intensity of the symptom is proportionate to the quantity and quality of the meal. When the stomach is empty, a sensation of craving or emptiness, gives most trou- ble. This often causes a false appe- tite, which by Inducing the person to eat heartily aggravates the sufferings.

Thirst generally causes much annoy- ance; heartburn, water-brash, acidity, nausea, and headache are not infre- quent attendants. The tongue is usu- ally coated and from a. mere inspection of this organ the condition of the stomach can often be correctly told. It Is a common error with persons who suffer from stomach pain caused by Indigestion and gastric Irritation to use such drugs as cnlorodyne. Hoff- man's Anodyne, and other "pain kill- for its relief.

Such treatment is a great mistake. While these drugs afford temporary relief to tha dyspep- tic pain, they have no effect whatever in removing the cause. STUART DYSPEPSIA TABLETS re- move the cause. By completely ing all the food in the stomach, thera is no further possibility of the occur rence of this disagreeable form of dys-y pepsia with its painful and other concurrent symptoms. of the irritation of the stomach-lining and stomach-nerves a3 the result of the un- digested food lying in that organ and undergoing fermentation and decompo-.

sitlon is quickly done away -with. But not only is the form of dyspep- sia which is accompanied by pain cured through the use of these digestive tab- lets, but also every other form of In- digestion, as there are many kinds in, 'which stomach pain does not occur, but where there axe many symptomsv equally disagreeable, discomforting', disconcerting and discouraging.
