Exeter, Ontario HE FELT MISERABLE AFTER MEALS Acute Indigestion Relieved by Kruschen The treatment which put this man right must surely be worth trying in every case of indigestion. Read, what lie says:— "Two years, ago I suffered very much from indigestion, loss of ap­ petite, and a. most severe pain in my back. Food soured in my stomach. I felt miserable after meals, and had no desire or appetite for them. A friend advised me to try Kruschen Salts. I did so, and I am most happy to testify that after a short time I felt the greatest relief. I con­ tinued taking Kruschen till 1 felt myself quite better and a new man. I feel as light-hearted as I did twen­ ty years ago.”—W. B. What Kruschen did for him it will do for everybody else who suffers from indigestion as he did. The fact is that "the little daily dose” of Kruschen first stimulates the flow of gastric juices to aid digestion, and then ensures a complete, regular and unfailjng elimination of all waste matteV every day.
