It heats the world what measley, Indigestion Is often caused by overeating. An eminent authority says the harm done thus exceeds that from the excessive use of alcohol.

Eat all the good food you want but don'tover-load the stomach. A weak stomach may Tofuse to digest what you eat. Then you need a good digestant like Kodol, which digests your food without the stomach's aid. 'J his rest and the wholesome tonics Kodol contains soon restore hesilth. Dietingunneces-ry.

Kodol quickly relieves the feel-ti of fulness and bloating from which some people suffer after meals. Absolutely cures indigestion. IlodaS Prepared only br E. C. DeWitt Sc Ike $1.
