"MAN IS AS OLD AS HIS STOMACH."
THIS PERSIAN EPIGEAII IS THE REAL GAUGE OP A MAN'S-LIFE. The Persians were a very sagacious' people, noted, among' other things, for their deep thinking on life and the things which make up life.' . _Tho above epigram shows the wisdom of their, thought. •- • ■> ' -; ■ e When a man's stomach is able to fur-nish-new material to the system as fast or faster-;than the natural decay of. man' requires,. then such ..a man lives/his fullest and his best'.
When through wrong living or disease a man s stomach begins to tax' the other organs, and: takes from the blood strength which it cannot give back in nourishment taken from food, then begins the death of man, and'-ho decays fast. The stomach is strong, . splendidly strong, and can stand, an untold amount of abuse and neglect, .but when it dies, man dies.'' The stomach gives tons upon tons • of good rich blood every year to the svstero, and draws.only 6801b. of nourishment for its own .use. If, however, the food which it receives cannot be turned into blood, which is capable of use'by the body, then the stomach receives no help from . tho other/organs. .; ' Dr. Sheldon's. Digestive Tabules contain the most perfect digestive' qualities known to science, and at the same tiihe tho most powerful. They will mis with the poisonous juices of a sick stomach, and digest food in spit© of this handicap. They will stop gas making and :bad breath. They tone up tho nerves of the whole digestive canal, including those of the stomach. - A single ingredient contains strength enough to digest 3000 times its weight in mixed food. They have stood the test of time, and to-day- are more, sought after than all their imitators combined. Dr. Sheldon's Digestive Tabules am obtainable everywhere at 2s. 6d. per tin of 80 -Tabules. .12
