NO MORE INDIGESTION.

BENEFICIAL RESULTS ACHIEVED BY BISURATED MAGNESIA. Soon wo may hear no more of indigestion, dyspepsia, heartburn, flatulence, wind, or similar forms of digestive and stomach troubles, for really excellent results are being obtained from the use of a simple antacid known as bisurated magnesia. Quite a typical instance of the. efficacy ot this product, is contained in a letter recently sent us by -Mr W. J. Marktelow, of Newstoad, Waikato, Auckland, who says:— “1 suffered with pains in my stomach for twenty years, and although 1 visited doctors both in New Zealand and England, I obtained no lasting benefit until 1 tried bisurated magnesia. That was about three years ago; and although I am sixty-three years of age, bisurnlcd magnesia still keeps mo well, and i would not bo without it.” Similar cases are reported almost dally, and it is now regarded as certain that the old unsatisfactory methods of treatment, such as dieting and drugging, will soon become obsolete, for whereas drugs merely alleviate the symptoms, bisurated magnesia removes the cause of tho trouble. That is to say, it neutralises the harmful acid in the stomach, < stops tho food fermenting, dispels wind, and soothes and heals the inflamed stomach lining. To accomplish these desirable results it is only necessary to take half a tcaspoonful of the bisurated magnesia in a little ivater after meals-—no alteration in diet need be made. It is important, though, that sufferers should ask the chemistvery distinctly for bisurated magnesia, ns, of course, the results mentioned could not be expected from ordinary forms of magnesia, such as the acetates of citrates.
