Superior to any English or American. ADIPLO-
MA was awarded to this Magnesia, by the American
Institute In 1852.
This very useful and elegant preparation is used
as an aperient antic acid in dyspepsia complaints
attended with aciditY with very great benefit. 1t
has the advantage over common Magnesia, in being
dissolved, and therefore not being liable TO accu
mulate 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 pleasing sedasive and aperient, in all
of irritation, acdty of the stomach, febtile
complaints, infantile disorders, sea-siekness.
An ounce or two of this solution speedily removes
heartburn acrd quotations and sourness, or irreg-
ular digestion.
The solution is of itself aperient but ts laxa-
tive properties can be much augmented by taking
with Ii, directly after it. little lemon juice, mix
ed with sugar and water even with cream of tar
tar; in this manner very agreeable ehervescent
draught can be safely taken at any time during
fever or thirst.
The antisceptic qualities of this solution, OWN :
to the 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 teeth from tartar.
The solution has almost invariably succeeded in
removing fits spasms and headaches to which deli
cate persons subject from acids and crudties of
the stomach and bowels.
The attention of the public is particularly direct
ed to the following certificates of physicians and
| other persons who have used the Magnesia:
