CHEMIST TELLS HOW TO STOP INDIGESTION.

SAYS USE OF PEPSIN LEADS TO CHKONIC DYSPEPSIA. "It is a wonder 6ome of us have stomachs left," remarked a well-known chemist recently. While all chemists sell a score or more of stomach remedies for which there is a wide demand, most of them are just pepsin pills, which aid digestion of the food that is in the stomach at the moment. They have no curative or strengthening effect on the stomach at all, and, of course, do not reach ur cure the cause. So the same people keep on coming here and buying and using thein until they are real chronic dyspeptics. When anyone really 'asks my advice I swear by and recommend ordinary bisurated magnesia, which doesn't digest the food at all, but acts as an antacid and sweetens the sour, fermenting contents of the stomach. That stops the pain, heartburn, sour rising, wind, floating, fulness, etc., in just a few minutes, and the stomach digests its food without help or trouble, which is the proper way. "Doctors make mistakes sometimes, too," he continued. "Jfy own aunt had all kinds of trouble with her stomach for years. She bought and used several styles of .digestive pills, but got worse right along, as naturally she would. Finally she went to li doctor, who nearly scared her to death by telling her she had cancer of the stomach. She came to me with his prescription, and told mo what he said. I thought it was nonsense. I sent her to another doctor

whom I knew very well, and lie didn't tell her anything, but. just gavo her this same thing, bisurated magnesia. She took it for two weeks, and never has had any stomach trouble- sinco, and that's

.three years ago. She's my own aunt, and I know this for. a fact. Yes, a lot of bisurated magnesia—noto the name carefully, as other kinds are lacking in its peculiarly valuable properties—is sold in Wellington. All tho chemists bave it, I suppose, and all you take is half a teaspoonful in a little water after every meal. It's all right."—Advt.
