■I —~ . ■- ■ • ."^^^^^—^ The West Report of Dr. Maclaurin, the Government Analyst, oa four brands of Nelson Moaffc's Tea together with the Analysis made in 1882 by Professor Bickerton, Colonial Analyst, makes interesting reading. These Analyses prove beyond contradiction that Nelson, JYloate & Co.'s Teas are the Best and Purest that money and experience can buy. They prove, too, that Nelson, ittoate's Teas to-day are even better than they were in 1882, when retail prices were higher. Remember in both instances the teas were bought from local grocers—the Analyst's report on the same packet and quality that you may purchase to-day. NAME OF TEA, 1882 .. jSpec'tylCharse' Dary.

WHAT DYSPEPTICS SHOULD KNOW.

Physician's Timely Advice. The fact that few dyspeptics really understand the pause of their trouble is probably the reason why drugs are still used to such an alarming extent. The practice is wrong, however, and is strongly condemned by many physicians. The presence of excess acid in the stomach is the cause of practically all forms of digestive trouble, and this can be neutralised and rendered harmless by the occasional use of ordinary bisurated magnesia—a product which can he obtained of any chemist. Physicians use bisurated mnp;n»sia themselves as well as recommend it to their patients, because they recognise thai it, not only overcomes dangerous stomach acid nnd thus ensures easy digestion, but by its use no harmful drug is introduced into the system and therefore there can be no unpleasant P.fter-effe.ots. Half a teaspoonful taken in a little water after meals is usually quite sufficient to keep the food contents of the stomach frea from fermentation and acid, thus ensuring; normal digestion.
