A Startling Statement New York Medical Authorix ties Claim Dyspepsia to be a PrexDisposing Cause of Consumption \ The post mortem statistics of the big New York hospitals show that some cases of consumption 1 are due , at least indirectly i , to un1 1 checked dyspepsia , especially ( when the victim was predisposed to tuberculosis. Dyspepsia wears out the body and brain. The weakened , irrit- able stomach being unable . to di- gest food , the body does not re- ceive the required nourishment , J and the victim becomes thin , weak I and haggard. As a result , the ( body becomes a fertile field in which the germs of disease may i lodge and flourish. Therefore , the person who per- mits dyspepsia to progress un- , hindered is guilty of contributing toward the development of one of the most insidious and fatal dis- ( eases known to mankind. Dyspepsia may be completely ' eradicated if properly treated. We ' sell a remedy that we positively guarantee will completely relieve indigestion or dyspepsia , or the i medicine used during the trial will i cost the user nothing. ' This remedy has been named Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets. Cer- tainly.no offer could be more fair , and our offer should be proof posi- tive that Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are a dependable remedy. r . Inasmuch ; as the medicine will - cost you nothing if it does not ' Denetic you , we urge you who are suffering : ; with indigestion or dys pepsia to try Rexall Dyspepsia rabletA 25-cent box contains enough medicine for fifteen days' 1 treatment.
