AND other 



Stomach Troubles 



Quickly relieved and positively 

 cured by the use of 



an absolutely harmless germicide. Sub- 

 dues inflammation, and by cleansing the 

 membrane of the stomach of abnormal 

 secretions, restores it to perfect health

For any stomach trouble it will do 

 good, and generally cure.
