The after-dinner pill merely lessens , the sensitiveness of- the'.stomach j nerves' and thus gives a falso sense of freedom from pain, whereas if those who are subject to flatulence, heartburn, wind, etc., were to obtain a little bisurated magnesia, from the chemist and take half a teaspooufu.l in a little water after meals, there would Tie no necessity for drugs or medicines because bisuratod magnesia instantly neutralises acidity, stops food fermentation, and thus ensures normal painless digestion by enabling .the stomach to do its work without hindrance.—Advt.
