Superior amy English or American. DIPLO-
MA was awarded to this Magnesia, by he American
Institute in 1862.
This very useful and elegant preparation is used
as an aperient antic-acid in dyspepsia complaints
attended with accidity with very great benefit II
has the advantage over common Magnesia, in being
dissolved, and therefore not being liable to accu
mniate IN the bowels. 1t is decidedly superior TO
Carbonate OF Soda or Potash, On account CT its
aperfent quality.
This solution of Magnesia is found particularly
beneficial as pleasing sedative and Rperient In all
cases OF irritation, or acdiy of the stomach ebtie
complaints, inf8ntile disorders, or see-sickpess
An ounce or two of this solution speedily re-
moves heartburn acrid eructatons and sournt S. or
irregular digestion,
The solution is Of itself an aperient but its laxa
tive prt perties can be much augmented by taking
with it, or directly after ii, little lemon Juice
mixed with sugar and water, or even with cream
of tartaII in this manner very agreeable e1fer-
vescent draught can be safely taken at any time
during fever or thirst.
The antisceptic qualities Of this solution owing

S o. DUNBAR, Esq.-Dear Sir; mos cheerfnilv
accord my testimony in favor of your "Fluid
| Magnesia." have never found anything so
pleasant and eeetual for correcting aeidity Of the
stomach and curing headache arising therefrom.
1t is resorted TO by several members of nv family
whenever suffering as above and always with great
satisfaction and instantaneous relief.

The subscriber having used the above article in
his family for some years. is happy to endorse the
testimony of Mr.. Blake In his favor
Hartford, Conn. Rev JOHN ORcr7Tr
Providence, Nov. g. 1888.
Mr.. 8. o. DUNBAR,-Dear Sir; am happy to
near that your preparation of fluid Magnesfa is
looming into general use. While it is more Geo.
nomlcal than other preparations of Fluid Magnesia
have found it vastly more efficient, and not only
an antseptic and anti-acid upon the stomach, but
very considerable tonic. 1t is a beautiful med
cine for the bowel arrangement which so often af-
fics young children, and for females of debilitatcd
and sour stomach. particularly those encente, it
is invaluable. Being scientific preparation and
open to the profession, it needs only acquairt-
ance TO become with them a fayoritc mediciue.

S. o DUEBAR.-Dear Sir: I have been some
time in the habit of prescribing the Fluid Magne-
STA prepared by you and prefer it to the English
preparation on account of its cheapness and its
superior laxative qualities.
Respectfully yours, &c. NJ S. PERRY, NJ. D,
