Accumulation Of Gas
In The Stomach
One OF The Most Common Symptoms
of Dyspepsia and Dcranged Digestion

The presence of a small quantity of
gas in the alimentary canal may be
described as constituting the ordinary
condition, as certain foods, such as
peas, beans, etc., naturally eliminate
and create gas while undergoing d.
gestion.
1t is only when this gas accumufates
to such extent as to cause inconven.
fence, and belching, that a person may
be said to be suffering from 1atulence.
This collection of gas becomes In ex-
IRENE cases so great that a swelling
presents itself in the pit of the stom-
ach; and when this stage is reached,
complaint is made that this part feels
tender to the touch, the clothes of the
person being loosened to obviate the
distress occasioned by pressure.
Attempts are usually made to get rid
of this stomach-gas by eructation, and
immediate relief is sometimes obtained
when this is accomplished. Infants are
very subject to fiatulence, especially
when their natural sfooo is taken away
too hastily, and when food other thar
that provided for them by nature is
given them. Mothers n nurses are
familiar with this ~infantile trouble,
and have various remedies fo- it. the
most popular OF which is charcoal,
which relieves the trouble completely
by absorbing the stomachic and intes-
final gases, thereby removing the col
icky pains Of h infant, which is the
symptom which most frequently cause
the nightly crying spells.
Charcoal Is a marvellous absorbent,
: and Is capable of oxidizing and absorb
ing one hundred times it's own volume
in gases. 1t is applicable to all cases
of fiatulence or gas in the stomach,
/. and as 1t Is entirely harmless, it can
be taken, by any one, with comparative
impunity and without fear Of its doing
any harm whatever TO the system.
Infants and old people can use it az
readily as young persons and those in
the prime OF life. and nothing but bene-
fit a. result from its use. 1t can also
be used in any quantity; and In this
respect it differs from drugs sometime:
employed for stomach troubles, as the
dosage of these must be regulated BY
q competent physician. Not so witt
charcoal. however, as is shown by the
fact that a French surgeon used al
much as fifteen ounces per day, every
day Of the last thirty years of his life
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges should
be employed in all cases where the
stomach is filled with gases resulting
from the fermentation nj decomposi
ton of food and also from the use O.
those vegetable foods which seem nat
lrally to engender and promote ths &C
.cumuIation Of gas. These wonderful
little 1ozenges, which have an enormous

ach.
