Indigestion Stomach trouble is but • symptom of. and not kt Itself a true disease. We think of Dyspepsia, Heartburn, and Indigestion as real diseases, yet they are symptoms only of a certain specific Nerve sickness—nothing else. s It was this fact that first correctly led Dr. Shoop in the creation of that now vety popular Stomach Remedy—Dr. Shoop's Restorative. Going direct to the stomach nerves, alone brought that success and favor to Dr. Shoop and his Restorative. Without that original and highly vital principle, no each lasting accomplishments were ever to be had. For stomach distress, bloating, biliousness, bad breath and sallow complexion, try Dr. Shoop’S Restorative—Tablets or Liquid—and see for yourself what it can and will do. We sell and cheerfully recommend Dr. Shoop’s Restorative A. F. LONG. The Pemocrat and Indianapolis News for only $3.75 per yr.
