THE NEWS AND OBSERVER, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 8, 1899. IT IS A TRIFLE. THE COMMON TROUBLF, ACID DYSPEPSIA OR SOUR STOMACH. Now Recognized as a Cause of Serious Disease Acid dyspepsia, commonly called heart burn or sour stomach, is a form of indi ! gestion resulting from fermentation of j the food. The stomach being too weak J to digest it, the food remains until fer- I mentation begins, filling the stomach , with gas, and a hitter, sour, burning taste in the month is often present. This condition soon becomes chronic and being an every day occurence is given but little attention. Because dyspepsia is not immediately fatal, many people do nothing for the trouble, i Within a recent period a remedy has been discovered prepared solely to cure dyspepsia and stomach troubles. It is known as Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets and is becoming rapidly used and pre scribed as a radical cure for every form ; of dyspepsia. Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets have been placed before the public and arc sold by all druggists for 50 cents per package. It is prepared by F. A. Stuart Co., Mar shall, Mich., and while it promptly and effectually restores a vigorous digestion, at the same time is perfectly harmless and will not injure the most delicate stomach, but on the contrary by giving perfect digestion strengthens the stom ach, improves the appetite and makes j life worth living. | Send for free book on Stomach Dis eases. THE OLD MAN ELOQUENT. (Biblical Recorder.) Dr. .T. D. Hirfham, of Henderson, spent the Sabbath with the Tabernacle church upon the invitation of pastor Simms. It was a joy to the people to I have their first pastor with them again, j and his sermons were very refreshing. From an experience of more than forty years, he spoke of spiritual things in a way to do ail hearts good. A number of friends from the Legislature were pres ent. and to sre the meeting of old friends at the close of the service was a sight to do one’s heart good. The Doctor was impressed and pleased with the growth of the church, and seemed to enjoy | the day as only one can who loves j the Lord, and who meets again with the yoke-fellows of other days—and to the pastor and people it was a day of joy.
