Chronic indigestion or Dyspepsia, while a very common trouble, haa for some time been looked upon by able physicians as a serious thing, and that no tle should be lost in treating it properly at the start, be cause recent researches have shown that the most serious, fatal and incurable dis eases have their origin in simple dyspep sia or indigestion. Diabetes is simply one form ot Indiges tion, the sugar and starchy food not be ing assimilated by the digestive organs. In Bright's disease the albumen la not prop erly assimilated. While consumption and dyspepsia are twin diseases, and it is beyond question that dydpepsla makes a fertile soil for the seeds of consumption. But the trouble has been to find a remedy that could be de pended upon to cure dyspepsia, as lt is no toriously obstinate and difficult to cure. This has been tho question which has puzxled physicians and dyspeptics alike, un til the question waa solved three years ago by the appearance of a new discovery In the medical orld known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which lt waa claimed was a cer tain, reliable cure for every form of stom ach trouble. Physicians, however, would not accept such statements without first giving the new remedy many tests and carefully ob serving results. For three years the remedy has been thoroughly tested in every section of the country and with surprising and satisfac tory results. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be hon estly claimed to be a specific, a radical, lasting cure for indigestion in the various forms of acid dyspepsia or sour stomach, gas or wind on stomach, too much bile, un due fullness or pressure after eating and similar symptoms resulting from disordered digestion. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets were not placed before the public until this three years' trial left no doubt as to their value and they have recently been placed in the trade and can be found on sale at all drug gists at the nominal price of 60 cents per package. No extravagant claims are made for the remedy, it will not cure rheumatism, pneu monia, typhoid fever nor anything but Just what it Is claimed to cure and that is every form of stomach trouble. No dieting Is necessary, good wholesome food and plenty of it and you may rest assured that Stu art's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest it. Drug gists claim for tt that it is a pleasure to reccmnend It to dyspeptics, because It (Ives such universal satisfaction. ILLINOIS CENTRAL EXCURSIONS. 1 -Jacksonville, Flo, (StH 1 TboronsWlle.
