IF FOOD DISAGREES DRINK HOT WATER. When food lies liko lead in tho stomach and you havo that' uncomfortable, distended feoling, it is because of insufficient blood supply to tho stomach, combined with acid and l'ood fermentation. In such cases try the plan now followed in many hospitals and advised by eminent specialists of taking half a' teaspoonfnl of bisurated magnesia in. half a glass of water as hot as you can comfortably drink it. Tho hot water draws tho blood to tho stomach, and tho bisurated magnesia, as any physician or chemist can tell you, instantly neutralises the acid and stops the food fermentation. Try this 6imple plan and you will be astonished at the immediate feeling of relief and comfort that always follows the restoration of. the normal process of.di' gestion. Soldiers at the front, and travellers who are frequently obliged to tako hasty meals poorly prepared should always take two or three five-grain tablets of bisurated magnesia after meals to prevent fermentation and neutralise the acid.—Advt.
