A HOME REMEDY FOR DYSPEPSIA.
In view of the well-known. fact that probably over ninety per cent, of all stomach trouble, dyspepsia, indigestion, flatulence, etc., is either directly or Indirectly due to acidity, or as it is commonly called, "sour stomach," it is evidence that correction and prevention depends almost entirely on neutralising tho acid and stopping tho fermentation, for this purpose there is nothing better than a halfteaspoonful of ordinary bisurated magnesia in a little water immediately after eating or whenever pain is felt- This immediately neutralises the acid, stops tho fermentation, and permits the stomach to proceed with its work under normal conditions. Owing to the widespread use of bisurated magnesia by physicians and in the hospitals aid for greater convenience in carrying, most chemists now supply it in the form of compressed tablets, two of which aro equivalent to a half-teaspooiifu.l of the ordinary powder form. Ciiro should be taken to get bisurated magnesia, as other forms are jacking in its peculiarly valuable properties.—Advt.
