Catnrrh of the stomach has long bevn considered the next thing to Incurable. The usual symptoms are a full or bloating sensation after eating, accom panied sometimes with sour or watery rising, a formation of gases, causing pressuro on the heart and lungs and dlfllclilt breathing; headache, fickle appetite, nervousness and a treneral played out, languid feeling. There is often a foul taste In tho mouth, coattd tongue, and If the Inter ior of the stomach could be seen It would show a slimy, Inflamed condi tion. The cure for this common nnd obsti nate trouble Is found In a treatment which causes the food to be readily, thoroughly digested before It has a time to ferment nnd irritate the deli cate mucol's surfaces of the stomach. To secure a prompt and healthy di gestion Is the one necessary thing to do, nnd when normnl digestion Is secured the catarrhal condition will havo dis appeared. According to Dr. Ilarlunson the saf est and best treatment Is to use after each m.vil a tablet, composed of Dias tase, Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux, Gold en Seal and fruit acids. These tablets can now be found at all drug stores under the nnine of Stu art's Dyspepsia Tablets, and, not being n patent medicine, can be used with perfect safety and assurance that h'culthy appetite and thorough diges tion will follow their regular use ut ter meals. Mr. N. J. Booher, of 1710 Dearborn St., Chicago, 111., writes: "Catarrh Is a local condition resulting from a ne glected cold In the head, whereby tho lining membrane of the nose becomes InllnmeJ und the poisonous discharge therefrom, passing backward Into the throat, reaches the stomach, thus pro ducing catarrh of the stomach, Medi cal authorities prescribed for me for three years for catarrh of stomach without cure, but today I am the hap piest of men after using only one box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I can not, find appropriate words to express my good feeling. "I have found flesh, nppetlte and sound rest from their use." Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is tb'o saf est preparation ns wjll as the simplest and most convenient remedy for any form of Indlgestion.catarrh of stomach, biliousness, sour stomach, heartburn and bloating after mals.
