A STOMACH TONIC
There is a form of Indigestion called !
"atonic" dyspepsia. Atonic means
"lack of tone." It Is probably the :
most common form of indigestion, but;
not much is heard about It because
paople are inclined to group all forms
of dyspepsia as "stomach trouble" and
the doctors let it go at that.
Lack of tone in the digestive organs j
means that the stomach iak no longer j
able to do its work as nature intended, j
The nerves that control It are weak, (
the glands that supply the digestive j
fluids are not working properly. Gas I
on the stomach, sour risings in the-j
throat and constipation result. The i
cause of the trouble is thin blood, j
Stomach, nerves and glands are all de- ,
pendent on the blood and when it gets j
thin and watery they are at once j
weakened. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills i
act directly on the blood and the first J
response from the stomach is a better i
appetite, freedom from distress after |
eating and an increase in ambition and i
energy generally. Try Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills as a stomach tonic and see
how your general health Improves.
A diet book. "What to Eat and How
to Eat," will be sent free on request
by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y. Every druggist
sells Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.—Adver
tisement.
