It ja easy to keep well if we would only observe each day a few simple rules of health, ‘The all-tmportant thing 1s to keep the nach right, and to do this it ts not nec- ry to diet or to follow a set rule or tll of fare. Such pampering simply maker a capricious appetite and a feeling that certain favorite articles of food must be avolded. Prof. Wiechold gives pretty good advice on this subject. He says: “I am Gf years old and have never had a sertous {llness, and nt the same time my life has been largely an indoor one, but I early discov. ered that the way to keep healthy was to keep a healthy stomach, not by eating bran crackers or dieting of any sort—on the con- eat what my appetite craves t eight years I have made {t a dally practice to take one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after. each and [ attribute my robuat health for a of my age to the rej daily us lets. hysician frst advised me to use them he sald, they were perfectly herm- less and were not a secret patent medicine but contained only tho natural digestives, e, and after using them never ceaned to thank him for his advice. “I honestly belleve the habit of taking Stuart's Dyspepsia the real health hal brings health to th preserves health to'the well aod strong.
