CHEMIST TELLS HOW TO STOP indigestion. S VYS PSE OF PEPSIN LEADS TO CHRONIC DYSPEPSIA. “It is a wonder some of ns have stomachs left,” remarked a well-known chemist recently. While all chemists sell a score or more of stomach remedies for which there is a wide demand, most of them are just pepsin pills, which aid digestion of the food that is .in theistomach -at the moment. . I hev 'have no cunvtive .or strengthening c - pm,at,tall, and, ml courserdoOlot'reach or cure the cause. So the same people keep on connpg here and buying aiid using them until thev are real chronic dyspeptics \\ lien anyone really asks my advice. I swear liY and. recommend ordinary Insulated magnesia, which doesn’t digest the toodvat-alLhni acts as an antacid and sweetens the sour, fermenting contents of the stomach. That stops the pain, heartburn, sour rising, wind, floating, fulness, etc., in just a few mmytes, and the stomach digests its food witliont help or trouble, which is the pro--1 Doctors make mistakes sometimes, too, he continued. “My own aunt had all kinds of trouble with her stomach for years.

Yes a lot of hisurated magnesia—note the name carefully, as other kinds are lacking in its peculiarly valuable properties—m sold in Stratford. All the chemist have it. .1 suppose, and all >on take is half a teaspoonfnl in a 'little watei after meal. It’s all right.
