Superior to any English or American. A DIPLO-
MA was awarded to this Magnesia, by he American
Institute in 1852.
This very useful and elegant preparation is used
as an aperient antic-acid 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 pleasing sedative and aperent, in all
of irritation acidity of the stomach febtle
complaints, infantile disorders, or sea-sickness.
An ounce or two of this solution speedily re-
moves heartburn acrd quotations and sourness, or
irregular digestion,
The solution is OF itself an aperient but its axa-
tive properties can be much augmented by taking
with it, or directly after IT, a little lemon Juice,
mixed with sugar and water, or even with cream
of tartarI in this manner a very agreeable effer-
vescent draught can be safely taken at any time
during fever or thirst.
The antisceptic qualities of this solution, owing
10 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 subject from acids and cruditee OF
he stomach and bowels.
The attention of the public ls particularly direct
ed to the following certificates of physicians and
other persons who have used the Magnesia:

Mn. s. o. DUNBAR,-Dear Sir; am happy to
hear that your preparation Of fluid Magnesa il
coming into general use. While it is more eco
nomical than other preparations of Fluid Magnesia
have found it vastly more efficient, and not only
an antiseptic and anti-acid upon the stomach, but
g very considerable tonic. 1t is beautiful medi-
cine for the bowel arrangement which so often af-
ficts young children, and for females ofdebitated
and sour stOmachs, particularly those enciente, il
/ is invaluable. Being a scientific preparation and
open to the profession, it needs only an acquairt-
1 ance to become with them favoritc mediciue.
