DON'T NEGLECT DYSPEPSIA. A-DANGEROUS POLICY LEADING TO UNTOLD MISERY LATER ON. Unsold misery invariably - results from neglect of the- early symptoms of indigestion and dyspepsia, and there is always the possibility that stomach ulceration or gastritis may develop. That is why.it is so dangerous for those who experience pain after eating, with a flushed face, heartburn, etc., to wait and see if the symptoms will subside of their own accord or become worse. . Be assured that they, .will certainly beoome worse unless you take stepß to neutralise the acid, which is the root cause of the trouble. To neutralise acid in the stomach, and so prevent food fermentation and unpleasantness after meals, is quite an easy matter. Simply get some bisurated magnesia from the chemist, and take half a teaspoonful in a little water immediately after meals. This plan is surely preferable to dosing the stomach with drugs or confining yourself to an unattractive diet of easily-digested foods.' It enables you to eat freely of the foods you fancy, for by taking the bisurated magnesia you keep ihe stomach quite free from acid and prevent all possibility of food fermentation, food remains bland and sweet until perfectly digested, and consequently' there is no pain. This plan is recommended by,many specialists, and is worthy of a thorough trial by all, but to avoid confusian with the acetates, citrates, or oxides of magnesia, Teaders should ask the chemists very distinctly for tho bisurated, the form prepared I especially for stomach use.—Adyt.
