A healthy appetite and common sense arc exoellent guides t6 follow in matters of diet, and a mixed diet of Brains, fruits nnd mcaU Is undoubted ly the best, in splto of tho claims mado by vogotarlana and fowl cranks gen erally. Aa compared with grains and vege tables, meat furnishes the most nutri ment In a highly concentrated form nnd is digested and assimilated more quickly than vegetqbles or grains. Dr. Julius Bemusson on this subject says: Nervous persons, people run down In health nnd of low vitality should eat plenty of meat, If tho di gestion Is too feeble at first It may bo easily strengthened by tho regular uso of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal. Two of these excellent tab lets taken after dinner will digest sev eral thousand grains of meat, eggs or other animal food In threo or four hours, while the malt diastase also con tained In Stuart's Tablets causa tho perfect digestion of starchy foods, llko potatoes, bread, etc., and no matter how weak the stomach may be, no trouble will be experienced If a regular practice Is mado of using Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablots because they supply tho pepsin nnd diastase so necessary to perfect digestion, and any form of in digestion and stomach trouble except cancer of the stomach will be overcome by their dally use. That large class of people who come under tho head of nervous dyspeptics should eat plenty of meat nnd Insure Its complete digestion by the systemat ic uso of a safe, harmless digestive medicine like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets composed of the natural digestive principles, peptones and diastase, which nctually perform the work of digestion nnd give the abused stomach a chance to rest and fo furnish the body and brnln with tho necessary nutriment. Cheap cathartic medicines masqueiadlng under the name of dys pepsia cures are useless for relief or cure of Indigestion because thev have absolutely no effect upon the actual di gestion of food. Dyspepsia in all Its forms Is simply a failure of the stomach to digest food and the sensible way to solve the ilddle and cure the Indigestion Is to make dally use at meal time of a safe pre paration which Is endotsod by the medical profession and known to con tain active digestive principles, and a'l this can truly lie said of Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablet-, All druggists throughout the United States. Canada nnd Great Rrltaln sell them at the uniform price of fifty cents for full treatment JERMYN ANDJMAYFIELD.
