AFRAID TO EAT. : WEALTHY DYSPEPTIC DIES OP , STAB?ATIOjS t . An inquest -was 1 recently held upon a wealthy man who bad died of starvation. He was a, victim of digestive trouble and afraid to eat because of the pain which always followed. This tragic proof of tho tolly of dieting should serve as a warning to those of our readers who experience pain and unpleasantness after eating. It should be Temcmbered that.indigestion, dyspepsia, heartburn, . flatulence, and-wind are usually but symptoms of excessive acidity and food,fermentation. The acid retards digestion, turns the food sour and causes fermentation and wind. Obviously, therefore, it is acidity which, is the root cause of practically all forms of digestive and stomach trouble, and that is why physicians advise sufferers to take bisurated magnesia after meals. Bisurated magnesia is not a drug or a medicine, but an antacid and food corrective which can be obtained from high-class chemists everywhere. Half a. teaspoonful taken in a little water after meals is sufficient to instantly neutralise acidity and prevent all possibility of tho food fermenting, and if dyspoptics would only adopt this simple precaution they would soon find drug taking and dieting unnecessary; bisurated magnesia would e/'ablo them to eat hearty meals without fuir of pain, to follow.—Advt.
