The preparation Is prepared In Ihe form of lozenges or tab lets , pleasant to take and when used after meals seem to digest the food perfectly , giv ing the stomach timeto real and recover Its natural strength , These tablets are sold by druggists , generally under the name ot Stuait'e Dyspepsia Tablets , and while the remedy Is very cheap , costing only SO cts per package , yet no remedy BO far tried has made BO many cures of dyspepsia. One thing Is certain , It Is absolutely safe and cannot harm the most delicate stomach. A Buffalo physi cian recently stated that In all caiea of Indi gestion , sour stomach , gas and distress after eating , he Invariably recommenda Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and always with the best results. From all accounts It would appear that the remedy IB an excellent one and worthy of Its good name. It can. be found at any drug store.
