hear that your preparation of fluid Magnesia Il
coming into general use. While tits more econom

have found it vastly more efficient, and not only al
antiseptic and anti ocid upon the stomach, but
very considerable tonic. 1t Is beautiful medicine
for the bowel arrangement which so often affiict
young children, and for females OF debilitated an6
sour stomachs, particularly those enciente, 1t
invaluable. Being a scientific preparation ant
open to the profession, it needs only an acquaint
