"MAN IS AS OLD AS HIS STOMACH." « This Persian Epigram is the Real Gauge of 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. The above epigram shows the wisdom of their thought. _ When a man's stomach is able to furnish 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 he 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 system, and draws only 6SO lbs. 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 the other organs. k Dr. Sheldon's Digestive Tabules contain the most perfect digestive qualities known to science, and at the same time the most powerful. They will mix wlt h the poisonous juices of a siclc_ stomach and digest food in spite of this handi- ' They will stop gas-making and bad breath. They tone up the nerves of the whole digestive canal, including those of the stomach. A single ingredient contains strength enough to digest 3,000 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 are obtainable everywhere at 2/6 per tin oJ 80 Tabules. Agent: G. L. Giesen, Chemist, Rora Street, Te Kuiti.
