HOW TO STOP PAIN IN STOMACH. THE VALUE OF MAGNESIA AND • HOT WATER. • Generations of people have employed hot water as a soother of pain in the stomach, 'but modern physicians and specialists have discovered and used successfully an addition which renders the hot water trebly efficacious. Hot water is still recommended in 'all cases of stomach pain, from whatever cause arising, but still bettor results are obtained if a littlo bisurated magnesia is added. Hot water attracts blood to the painful part and the bisurated magnesia neutralises tho acid, which is usually the underlying cause of tho pain. That isw'hy such excellent! results follow combination of the two. Headers who are subject lo pain in the stomach, especially after eating, should try this hot water and magnesia recipe. ' It renders dieting quite unnecessary, for t>y slowly drinking half a glassful of hot water containing half a teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia immediately after meals, the dangerous stomach acids are destroyed, and food remains bland and sweet until perfectly di-1 gested. The bisurated magnesia, which) is extensively used in hospitals, can readily be obtained from chemists everywhere; but to avoid confusion with tho acetates, citrates, and oxides ot magnesia, or equally unsuitable mixtures of bismuth ami magnesia, it is important that, bisurated should bo asked for very distinctly.—Advt.
