CURES INDIGESTION.

AU Distress from Rtopuwh and Indigestion Vanishes in Five Minutes. Take your sour stomach—or maybe you call it indigestion, Dyspepsia, Gastritis or Catarrh of Stomach; it doesn’t matter—take your stomach trouble right with you to your Pharmacist and ask him to open a 50cent case of. Pape's Diapepsln and let you eat one 22-graln Triangule and see If within five minutes there is left any trace of your stomach misery. Tne correct name for your trouble is Food F ermentation—food souring; the Digestive organs become weak, there is lack of gastric juice; your food is only half digested, and you iffected with loss of appetite, pressure and fullness after eating, vomiting, nausea, heartburn, griping in bowels, tenderness in the pit of stomach, bad taste in mouth, constipation, pain in limbs, sleeplessness, belching of gas, biliousness and many other similar symptoms. If. your appetite is fickle, and nothing tempts you, or you belch gas or if you feel bloated after eating, or your food lies like a lump of lead on your stomach, you can make up your mind that at the bottom of all- this there is but one cause—fermentation of undigested food. Prove to yourself, after your next meal, that your stomach is as good as any; that there is nothing really wrong. Stop this fermentation and begin eating what you want without fear of discomfort or misery. Almost instant relief is waiting for you. It is merely a matter of how soon you take a little Diapepsln. -
