DYSPEPTICS MUST AVOID MEDICINES. DANGER ALSO~IN DIETING. PROMINENT PHYSICIAN GIVES SOUND ADVICE. "The taking of common, supposedly 'harmless,' dyspepsia tablets lias become ah alarmingly bad habit on the part of millions," says a prominent physician. "One old and dangerous theory is that indigestion calls for pepsin or other artificial digestive. The fact is that every dose lielps to weaken the stomach and contributes to chronic dyspepsia, if not to ulcers or cancer. Another old theory is that indigestion is caused by 'certain foods,' and can be overcome by abstaining from these foods. The fact is that such abstinence deprives the system of the very kinds of nutriment essential to normal health. In about D 9 out of 100 cases of indigestion the cause is acidity —too much acid—and the only logical harmless remedy is something to neutralise the acid. There is nothing so good for the purpose as just ordinary bisuratcd magnesia, which can be obtained from any chemist. From one-half to one teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water, after eating, will neutralise the aoidity immediately, promote perfect digestion, and help make one immune from ulcers, cancer, or other dangerous stomach disorders." CREME TOKATXIN, absolutely the best 4 non-greasy vanishing cream; beautifies the skin and removes wrinkles. At all chemists.—Advt.
