HOW TO STOP PAIN IN STOMACH. THE VALUE OF MAGNESIA AND ' HOT WATER. Generations of people have employed hot water as a soother of pain in the stomach, but modern physicians ar;d specialists have discovered and used successfully an addition which rendero the hot water tk-ebly efficacious. Kot wal-ra is still recommended in all cases of stomach pain, ■ from whatever cause, arising', but still better results axe obtained if a little bisur&ted magnesia :is added. Hot wtter attracts blood to the painiui part and the bisnrated magnesia j neutralises the acid, which is usually the J underlying cause of the pain. That is why such excellent,,results follow combination of the two. Readers who are subject to pain in the stomach, especially after eating, should Hry this hot j water and magnesia recipe. . "it renders j dieting quite unnecessary* for by slowlyl drinking'half a glassful of }iot water S containing half a teaspoonfn] of bisurated ! magnesia immediately after meals, the I dangerous stomach acids are destroyed. and food remains bland and sweet until •perfect!? 'digested. The bisurated magnesia, which is extensively used in hospitals, can readily be obtained from i chemists everywhere ; but. to avoid ■eon- | fusion .'with the acetates, citrates,' arid j oxides of magnetic or equally unsuitable mixtures of bismuth and magnesia, iit is important that bisurated should be | .asked for very distinctly.—Advfc. i Tbn wiles-girl and the factory hojid, The sun-tanned toiler on the- land, Tho "■wha.rfic" a.nd the millionaire, If a.sked the questiou, each declare That for n. sore throat, cou.yh; or cold.
