Superior to any English or American. A DIPLo-
MA was awarded to this Magnesia, by The American
Institute in 1852.
This very useful and elegant preparation is used
as an aperient antie-aeid In dyspepsia complaints
attended with accidity 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 as pleasing sedatve and aperient in all
OF irritation acidity of the stomach febtile
complaints, infantie disorders, or sea-sickness.
An ounce or two of this solution speedily re-
moves heartburn acrid eructations and sourness or
Irregular digestion,
The solution is of itself an aperient but its lsxs-
tive properties 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 tartafI in this manner very agreeable effer-
vescent draught can be safely taken at any time
during fever or thirst.
The antisceptic qualities of this solution, owing
to the presence of SO much carbonic acid, have
been found very valuable in putrid and other fe-
yer, As lotion for the mouth, it sweetens the
breath, and the Magnesia cleans the teeth from
| tartar,
The solution is almost invariably succeeded in
removing fits, spasms and headaches to which deli
cate persons are subject from acids and crudtes Of
The attention of the public Is particularly direct
ed TO the following certificates of physicians and
other persons who have used the Magnesia:
