One Million Dollars for a Good Stomach This Offer Should be a Warning to Every Man and Woman. The newspapers and medical journals have had much to say relative to a famous millionaire's offer of a million dollars for a new stomach. This great multi-millionaire was two busy to worry about the condition of his stomach. He allowed his dyspepsia to run from bad to worse until in the end it became incurable. His misfor tune should serve as a warning to others. Every one who suffers from dyspepsia for a few years will give everything he owns for a new stomach. Dyspepsia is caused by an abnormal state of the gastric juices. There is one element missing—Pepsin. The absence of this destroys the/unction of the gastric fluids. They lose their power to digest food. We are now able to supply the pep sin in a form almost identical to that naturally created by the system when in normal health, so that it restores to the gastric juices their digestive power, and thus makes the stomach strong and well. We want every one troubled with in digestion and dyspepsia to come to our store and obtain a box of Rexall Dyspepsia Tablet?. They contain Bis muth-Subuitrate and Pepnin preparf r| by a process which develops their greatest power to overcome digestive disturbance. Rexall Dyspepnia Tablets are very pleasant to tabe. They soothe the ir ritable, weak stomach, strengthen and invigorate the digestive organs, relieve nausea and indigestion, promote nutri tion and bring about a foeling of com fort. If you give Rexaii Dyspepsia Tablets a reasonable trial we will return your mo ey if you are not eatisfied with the 'result. Three ahrca, 25 cetlts, 50 cents •ind §I.OO.
