STOMACH TROUBLES DUE TO ACIDITY.

So Says Eminent Specialist. So-called stomach troubles, such as indigestion, wind, stomach-ache and inability to retain food, instead of indicating that the stomach is out of order, are in nine cases out of ten simply ( evidence that fermentation f's taking, place in the food contents of the stomach, causing the formation of gas, and acids: Wind distends the stomach > and causes that full; oppressive feeling sometimes known as heartburn, while tho' acid' irritates and, inflames the delicate lining-of the stomach. 'The stdmaCh, i however, is not at fault. The trouble lies entirely in the fermenting food. Such fermentation is unnatural, and acid formation is not only unnatural, but may involve the most serious consequences if not prevented. To prevent or stop fermentation of the food contents of the. stomach amkto neutralise the acid and -render it bland ami harmless, half, a teaspoonfuUof bisurated magnesia, .probably best- and most effective antacid' known, should be taken in. a quarter of a glass of hot or :.cpid water immediately after eat,iug, or whenever wind or acidity is felt. This stops the fermentation, and neutralises the acidity in a few moments. Fermentation) j wind, and acidity are dangerous and unnecessary. Stop or prevent them by the. use of a proper antacid, such as bisurated magnesia, which can be obtained from any chemist, and thus enable the stomach to do its work properly without being hindered by poisonous gas and dangerous acids.—M.F.P.

Keeps Thousands Awaßc; Makes Life a Misery. You know what it is—Piles. Nearly drive you mad. Hard to bear. Hard to get rid of. Can't find relief. But wait a minute. Yes, you can, too. It's a case of knowing how. Knowing how means relief. It means get the right thing. It means get Doan's Ointment. Doan's Ointment will do it. All itching skin diseases disappear under the soothing influence of Doan's Ointment. Hero's proof of this: — Mr John Stott, bootmaker, 110 Harrison Street, Wanganui, says:— "For vears I was a martyr to that most trying complaint, Itching Piles, and only people who have suffered in this way have any idea what I went through. At one time I was so bad that I went into a. hospital, and had an operation performed, but in a little while T was just as had as ever. I tried almost every Piie remedy known, but could only get temporary relief from the awful irritation. I suffered most during the warm weather, or when 1 got heated in any way, and sometimes the irritation was so ter<rihle that I felt I could tear myself to pieces. Six months ago I was advised to try Doan's Ointment, and I am pleased 1 did so. 1 got relief from the first few applications,' and before I had used two pots I was completely cured, and as I have been free ot Piles ever 1 think I am safe m saying. m\ cure is permanent." Two years later Mrs Scott says:— "My husband has not been troubled witli Piles since Doan's Ointment cured him over two years ago. He strongly recommends this remedy to all who sii* r,,- ,as lie once did." ' When we say that Doan's Ointment will cure Piles, we mean exactly what wo say, nothing more or loss, and we are able to make this emphatic statement backed by such evidence as the above. Doan's Ointment is sold by all chemists and storekeepers attOs per pot, or will be posted on receipt of price by Foster-McOlolhn Co., 7t3 Pitt Stl'f?t, Sydney, Hut. be s>'<ro vou get DOAN'S. >•
