A SMG1II COLD
Often Urine an Incurable Mnlnuv.
Tho time to begin to doctor is when
the symptoms of ditcase first appear.
The symptoms of catarrh are man.'
and varied. A slight cold or cough
that a few doses of Pe-ru-na would
promptly cure Is allowed to progress
until It becomes chronic catarrh, which
sometimes necessitates long and per
sistent treatment to effect a cure. Mrs
Mallnda Walker, Graham City, Vour.g
county, Tex., writes: "For the past six
years j navo
been suffering
w i t h catarrh
and all the evil
effects that itc
company it
Tho last year
my throat got
toie.then It set
tled on my lungs
which caused
pain under left
shoulder u n d
breast. I was
rot able to do my work; could not get
up out of a chair without help. I had
nil of our doctors' advice and assist
ance, but It did no good, The fiist
month after I began taking your medi
cine I wns doing my work. I took
them for twelve months nnd now I am
In good health, I recommend your
medicine to do Just what you fay It
will do. You made my health good,

MEASE SUFFERING
From Dyspepsia and Stomach
Trouble.
INSTANTLY RELIEVED AND PERMA
NENTLY CURED.
A Now Discover?, but Not n Patent
Medicine.
Dr. Itedwell relates an Interesting ac
count of what he considers a remnrk
nble cure of acute stomach trouble and
chronlo dyspepsia by the use of the
new discovery, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets. He says: Tho patient was a man
who had suffeed to my knowledge for
years with dyspepsia. Everything he
ate seemed to sour and create acid nnd
gases In tho stomach; he had pains
like rheumatism In the back, shoulder
blades and limbs, fullness and distress
nfter eating, poor appetite anfl loss of
llesh; tho heart became affected, caus
ing palpitation and sleeplessness nt
night.
I gave him powerful nerve tonics and
blood remedies, but to no purpose. As
an experiment I finally bought a fifty
cent package of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at a drug store and gave them
to him. Almost Immediate relief was
given and after ho had used four boxes
he was to all appearances fully cured.
There wns no more ncldlty or sour
watery risings, no bloating after meals,
the appetite was vigorous and he has
gained between 10 and 12 pounds in
weight of solid, healthy ilesh.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are advertised and sold In drug stores,
yet I consider them a most valuable
addition to any physician's line of
remedies, as they are perfectly harm
less and can be given to children or In
valids or In any condition of tho stom
ach with perfect safety, being harm
less and containing nothing but vege
table and fiult essences, pure pepsin
and Golden Seal.
Without any question they are the
safest, most effective cure for indiges
tion, biliousness, constipation and all
derangements of the stomacb however
slight or severe.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by druggists everywhere at fifty cents
for full sized package.
