Superior to any English or American. DIPLO-
Ma was awarded to this Magnesia, by the American
Institute in 1882
THE very useful and elegant preparation ia used
as an aperient antic acid in dyspepsia complaints
attended with aciditv with very great benefit 1t
has the advantage over common Magnesia, in being
dissolved and therefore not being liable to accu-
mHlate in the bowels 1t is decidedly superior TO
Carbonate of Soda or Potash, on account of Its
aperient quality.
This solution of Magnesia is found particularly
beneficial as pleasing sedatve and aperent in all
of irritation, acidity OF the stomach febte
complaints infanti'e disorders. or Rea-sckness.
An ounce two OF this solution speedily removes
heartburn, acrid quotations and sourness, or lrre
ular digestion.
The solution is of itself an aperient but Us laxa
tive properties can be much augmented by taking
with it, directly after 1t, little lemon Juice, mix
ed with eugar and water even With Cream Ct tar

draught can be safely taken at any time during

to presence of much carbonic acid, have been
| found very valuable in putrid and other fever AS
lotion for the mouth, 1t sweetens the breath, and
the Magnesia cleans the treth from tartar.
| The solution has almost invariably succeeded IN
removing fits, spasms and headaches to which deli.
cate persons are subject from acids and crudes OF

| Mr.. o. S. pUNBAR,-Daar Sir: l am happy to
hear that your preparation of fluid Magnesia is
coming into general use. While 1t is more econom
zeal than other preparations of Fluid Magnes!a,
have found it vastly more efficient, and not ouly al
| antiseptic and anti ocid upon the stomach, but q
very considerable tonic. 1t is beautiful medicine
for the bowel arrangement which SO often affictt
young children. and for females of deblitated ano
sour stomachs, particularly those enciente, it j:
invaluable. Being scientific preparation ano
open to the profession, 1t needs only an acqlaint
ance to become with them favorite medicine.
