.JAMESTOWN (SOUTH AUSTRALIA) Mr. W r . J. Quigley, proprietor of .he Jamestown Hotel, writes as lol“For many years I have suriered from Indigestion and Dyspepsia, and was unable to find anything to give me relief until I tried Dr. Sheldon’s Digestive Tabules. I read.in the pa per the advertisements about these Tabules, and noted that they were highly reeornnibnded by many wellknown people throughout Australia, and decided to give them a trial. 1 obtained a tin of the Tabules from the iocal chemist, and from the first felt like a different man. I was able to enjoy my meals as never before, and could eat whatever I desired; and iince starting to take them have never had an attack of indigestion. 1 im now thoroughly cured, and heartily recommend Dr. Sheldon’s Digoscive Tabules to anyone suffering from indigestion or dyspepsia, as I did.” Dr. Sheldon’s Digestive Tabules are mid at 2s 6d per tin of 80 tabules.
