Accumulation of Gas
In the Stomach
One of the Most Common Symptoms Of
Dyspepsia and Deranged Digestion,

The presence Of small quantity Of
gas iu the alimentary canal may be de-
scrlbed as constituting tho ordinary
condition, as certain foods, such as
peas. beans, etc, naturally eliminate
aud create gas while undergoing diges-
ION.
Ii is only when this gas accumulatcs
10 Such cxtcut as to cause lnconveDi
nee, and belcbiDg. that a person may
le sand TO be suffering from flatulence.
This collection Of gas becomes in ex
rene cases so great that a swelling
presents itself in the PIT of the stom-
9ch; and when this stage is reached,
complaint is made that this part feels
tcnder 10 the touch, The clothes of the
person being looseued 10 obviate the
distress occasiopcd by pressure.
Attempts are usually made to get rid
of this stomach gas by eructatiop, and
immediate relief IS sometimes obtained
when this is accomplished. Infants
arc very subject 10 flatulencc, especial
lv when their natural food is taken
AWAY too hastily, and when food other
llIan that provided for them by nature
IS given them. Mothers and nurses
are familiar with this infsntilc trouble
and have various remedies Tor ii, the
most popular Of which is charcoal
which relieves tho trouble completely,
by absorbing the stomachic and intes
llDal gases, thereby removing the col
JckY pains of the infant, which is the
symptom which most frequently causes
the nightly crying spells
Charcoal is a marvellous absorbent
and is capable of oxidizing and absorb
ing one hundred times IFS own volume
IN gases. 1t is applicable TO ali cases
of flatulencc or gas in the stomach. and
as IL is entirely harmless, il can be ia
ken, by any one, with comparative i'm
punitY and without fear Of It's doing
any harm whatever TO the system.
infants and old people can use it as
readily as young persons and those in
the prime of life. and nothing but benc-
tlt can result from it's use. 1t can also
nc used IN any quantity; and in this
respect II differs from drugs sometimes
employed for stomach troubles, as the
dosage Of these must be regulated by
competent physician. Not so with
charcoal. however, as is shown by tho
TACT that a French surgeon used as
much as fifteen ounces per day. every
day Of the last thirty years of his life
stuart S Charcoal LoZepges should be
employed in all cases where the stom.
ach is filled with gases resulting from
the fermentation and decomposition of
iood aud also from inc usc Of those veg
etable foods which seem naturally TO en-
gender and promote the accumulation Of
gas. These wonderful little lozenges,

ov, and furnish TO the sufferer from
