ACID STOMACHS AND A NEUTRALISING AGENT.

Whether it is due to nerve strain or to the hurried manner in which meals are often paten under prescnt ; day conditions, physicians cannot accurately tell, but it is the fact that just now indigestion, dyspepsia, heartburn, flatulence, and other formsof digestive and stomach troubles are very prevalent indeed Of course, there are many antidotes and remedies recommended for these ailments, but it is stated that a most effective remedy is half a teaspoonful of Bisurated _ Magnesia taken in a little water immediately after meals. Bisurated Magnesia can be obtained from any chemist in powder form in large sealed bottles, or for convenience in carrying it is also put up as tablets. But you should be careful to ask distinctly for Bisurated Magnesia, for this is the form prepared specially for use in cases of digestive and stomach trouble, and other forms might nossibly do you more harm than jood. Bisurated Magnesia is not a drug or a medicine in the accepted sense of these words, but when taken as directed it quickly neutralises harmful acids in the stomach, and at the same time soothes the inflamed stomach lining, and ensures normal digestion.—7lß
