ACID STOMACHS NEED MAGNESIA.

Drugs may give temporary relief from the pain which- usually results from an excess of acid in the stomach, out drugs do not eliminate the acid, and in sequence the pain returns worse than before. To effect a cure you must. first eliminate tho acid which is the cause of all the trouble, and a sure way to accomplish this is to take a little bisurated magnesia after your meals. This quickly neutralises the harmlut acid; prevents the food turning sour and fermenting, soothes and heals the inflamed stomach and enables you to again eat and enjoy the foods you fancy, secure in the knowledge that no pain or discomfort will result. . Of course it will be understood that ordinary forms of magnesia, such as the citrates-or sulphates, will not accomplish these happy results, neither will mixtures of bismuth and magnesia. You must get the bisurated magnesia, which is a form prepared specially for use in cases of digestive and stomach trouble, n. This can readily be obtained of high-class chemists everywhere in both powder and tablet form, the latter being especially suitable for travellers and others compelled to take meal's away from homo.
