“LAID UP SEVEN WEEKS WITH INDIGESTION”

FIRST TIN OF ANTI-ACIDO BANISHES ALL PAINS “I suffered so badly from chronic indigestion that at one time I was laid up for seven weeks. Pains would start in the stomach and travel round to my back. I tried countless remedies, but got no relief until 1 came across Anti-Acido. The first tin banished all the, gnawing pains. 1 am now completely better and feeling very happy at my recovery. “Tours sincerely, (Sgd.) W.F.” No matter how many disappointments you have had with other socalled remedies, you must try AntiAcido. Anti-Acido goes right to the root of the trouble —fermentation of the food is stopped, the affected membranes soothed and relieved. All chemists and stores sell Anti-Acido. 2s 6d a tin. 4.
