THE CAUSE OF INDIGESTION.
Much valuable information may bo "leaned from a somewhat lengthy medical report just published. For instance, it is mado clear that more than 90 per cent, of all cases of indigestion, dyspepsia etc., are duo to the presence of acid' in the stomach, and physicians agree that when this fact is realised by tho public they will be called upon to treat very few cases of stomach trouble, and the' cause of the trouble—tho acid m the /stomach—may readily be overcome without their aid. An effective preparation for this purpose is said to be bisurated magnesia, and they advise those who are troubled with almost any form of digestive trouble to obtain a small quantity of this product from their chemist, and take half-a-teaspoonful in a little water after meals, as this will prevent fermentation and neutralise any acid which may be formed, thus rendering the food easy of digestion. Certainly this plan seems preferable to dosing tho stomach ■with drugs.—Advt.
