CAUSE OF DYSPEPSIA

The hurried boiling of imperfectly
chewed food is now known to be the
primary cause of the chronic and ag-
gravated form of indigestion known as
dyspepsia.
Specialists say that there is one re-
liable way to treat indigestion and
dyspepsia--eat slowly, shun rich foods
and take a neutralizing elixir or cor
dial to correct acidity and aid nature
in getting rid of such infectious germs
as the food may contain.
A good neutralizing elixir can be
made up at home as follows: Get from
your druggist " ounce sodium phos-
phate and ounce essence of sealmint.
Mix this thoroughly in a half pint bot
tie with " teaspoonful baking soda,
adding pure water to fill the bottle.
Take two teaspoonfuls before each
meal. 1t is claimed by those who have
tried it that this simple mixture will
stop fermentation at once and give
quick relief from gas
