INSURING GOOD DIGESTION. IMPORTANCE OF PREVENTING FOOD FERMENTATION IN vSTOMACH. Good digestion usually means good health. So long as the stomach, does its work properly disease can find no lodgment in the human system ; the liver, kidneys and intestines will perform their work perfectly and remain in perfect health; but interfere with the proper digestion of food and an unending train of troubles is set in motion. About the only thing that will upset the stomach and interfere with the digestion is an excess of acid, usually caused by food fermentation. Food fermentation is due to chemical action in the food itself. This fermentation uaiißoa the formation of gas, or wind, as well as acid, resulting in the unnatural difttention of the stomach and the burning by,- the acid of the delicate lining of the stomach. s Medicines and tonics cannot relieve this condition—they usually make it worse. The fermentation und acid are to blame, and these must be overcome and prevented by taking after meals half a tea-spoonful of bisurated magnesia, in a little hot or cold water. Physicians recommend bisurated magnesia especially because it stops or prevents fermentation of food and neutralises the acid Instantly, milking it bland and harmless, withoutirritating or upsetting the stomach in any way. Get a little bisurated magnesia from your chemist and try it the next time your food Fermente and upsets your stomach. Note how quickly the a«id is neutralised, and how soon you forget that you have such a thing as a stomach.— Advt,
