THE VALUE OF MAGNESIA TO DYSPEPTICS. ITS ACTION EXPLAINED. "Of inestimable value in all forms of stomach trouble," recently remarked an eminent specialist when asked bis opinion upon the pvor-increasing us© of magnesia in cases of indigeston, dyspepsia, heartburn, flatulence, wind, etc., but, of oourse, it must bo puro bisurated magnesia; thot is the form invariably prescribed by physicians who recognise that in many cases serious harm might result from the use of other forms, such as tho acetates, citrates or sulphates ■< f magnesia; Most chemists now stock J™ l '® bisurated magnesia in powder and. tablet form, and I would advise sufferers from any form of stomach trouble to take half a teaspoon fill of the powder or two conmrcsseil tablets in I'ttlfi water immediately after cnch meal. This mil instantly neutralise the excessive acid 111 tho stomach and prevent fermentation of the food, thus ensuring normal digestion and freedom from discomfort and pain. Advt. '
