MAGNESIA EOR ACID STOMACHS. TAKE A LITTLE IN WATER AFTER EVERY MEAL Never mind the old-fashioned advice to try this or that remedy for your indigestion or dyspepsia. Re guided by physicians and specialists who have devoted years of study to tlie.se troubles, and have, learned what it is that causes flushed face after meals, heartburn, flatulence, etc. They know that in nine cases out of ten these symptoms indicate acid in the stomach and food fermentation, and so, instead of prescribing drugs or artificial digestants, they recommend the use of half a teaspoonful of bisura ted magnesia in a little water after meals. This neutralises the harmful acid instantly, and also perveuts all possibility of food fermenting in the stomach. The bisurated magnesia is of greater value than drags or medicines, for it attacks the root cause of the trouble, whereas drugs merely deaden the nerves and disguise the symptoms. The genuine bisurated magnesia can easily be obtained from high-class chemists everywhere, but care should be taken not to use the citrates, oxides and sulphates, as well as crude mixtures of bismuth and magnesia. Some of these are very similar in name to bisurated magnesia, and are apt to confuse the uninformed, hence the importance of asking the chemist very distinctly for bisurated .magnesia. 638
