can be saved in case the bill is en-
acted into law.
The bill provides that any person

ACID STOMACHS
ARE DANGEROUS
Nne-tenths Of all Stomach Trouble
Said to be Due to Acldlty.
A Physicians Advice on Cause and
Cure.

A famous physician whose success
full researches into the cause and
cure Of stomach and intestinal dis
eases have earned for him an inter
national reputation, said in the course
Of recent lecture that nearly all in
festival troubles, as well as many dis
eases OF the vital organs, were direct
ly traceable to a deranged condition
of the stomach which in turn was due
nine times out of ten to excessive
acidity, commonly termed sour stom-
ach or heartburn. which not only ir-
ritated and inflamed the delicate lining
of the stomach, but also set up gas
Itrit,s and stomach ulcers 1t Is inter
esting to note that he condemns the
use Of patent medicines as we'll as of
medical treatment for the stomach,
|stating that he and his colleagues
have secured remarkable results by
the use OF ordinary bisurated mag
Inesia, which, by neutralizing the acid
ity of the food, removes the source of
the trouble. He contends that 1t Ia as
foolish to treat the stomach itself
as it would be for man who stepped
on tack to rub liniment on the foot
without first removing the tack. Re-
move the tack and the foot will heal
elf-neutralize the acid and the
stomach troubles will disappear. IT.
Iritating medicines and medical treat
ments are useless, SO long as the con
tents Of the stomach remain acid; re
move the acidity, and there will be nc
need for medicine-the inflamed lining
| of the stomach will then heal itself
Sufferers from acidity, sour stomach
or heartburn should get small bottle
of bisurated magnesia from theii
druggist, and take a teaspoonful in 6
quarter of glass of hot or cold water
after meals, repeating in fifteen min
utes, il necessary, this being the dose
which the doctor has found most eff
