Persons who suffer from indigestion can
not expect to live long, because they can
~not eat the food required to sourish the
body and the products of the undigested
foods they do eat poison tbe blood. It is
important to cure indigestion as soon as
possible, and the best method of doing
this is to use the preparation known as
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It, digests what
you eat and restores all the digestive or-
gans to perfect health. Saguache Phar-
