STOP STOMACH DRUGGING.

NEUTRALISE THE DANGKROUS ACID WITH A LITTLE -MAGNESIA.

Stomach drugging is dangerous. Drugs often deaden the nerves and render them insensihle to pain, but pain serves a good purpose—it is Nature's method of indicating that something is interfering with the smooth working of the human organism. When the i'auit is corrected, the pain will cease. Pain after eatingheartburn, flatulence, etc., etc.—usually indicates not that the stomach is diseased, but that it is troubled by excessive acidity. The acid rritates and inflames the delicate lining of the stomach, and so causes pain. Obviously it is of primary importance that the cause of this pain should l>c removed, and to accomplish this you should obtain some bisurated magnesia from your chemist, and take half a teaspoonful in a little water immediately after meals. This is the remedy which produced such excellent results in the case of Miss Alice M. Allen, 69 Metchcr street, Auburn, Victoria who says:—'"l suffered so severely, from indigesticn that I often had to li c down quite exhausted by the pain. I became thin and felt worn out. Nothing seemed to do me the least good until I tried bisurated magnesia, but the first dose of this made m e fe'el letter, and I have bad no rejrurn of niy complaint." Equally good results are invariably accomplished by bisurated magnesia because it neutralises the harmful'arid which is the underlying cause of all the trouble, and, having done this, it soothes, heals and strengthens the stomach and ensures proper digestion of the food.
