HOW TO NEUTRALISE DANGEROUS STOMACH ACIDS.

Fey people besides physicians realise the importance or keeping the food contents of the stomach free from acid fermentation. Healthy normal digestion cannot take place while the delicate lining of the stomach ls being inflamed and distended by acid and wind—the results of fermenting food In the stomach. To secure perfect digestion this fermentation must he stopped and the acid neutralised. For this purpose physicians now rarely presenile drugs or artificial dlgestants; they rely instead upon a harmless antacid and food corrective known as blsurnted magnesia, and obtainable of all hlgh-clnss chemists In the form of small compressed tablets. Two of these tablets taken after a meal nre sufficient to quickly neutralise all harmful acid, and in consequence they prevent fermentation and wind, heartburn and flatulence and all of the many disagreeable symptoms which Indicate Indigestion or dyspepsln. But only tbe tnblets prepared from bisurated magnesia will accomplish these happy results, and therefore should -you wish to try this remedy you must ask your chemist very distinctly for bisurated magnesia tablets. These are put up in handy little flasks which you can easily carry in your pocket, and they are sold at a price which places them within easy reach of every sufferer.—(Ad.)
