Importance of Eliminating ACidity

During the past two or three years re-

and neutralixing dangerous stomach acid
has often been demonstrated. Until re-
Gently druggists could supply bisurated
magnesia in powder form only from one
to two teaspoonfuls OF which, taken in a
little water after meals, almost instantly
stops all fermentation and neutralizes

will be glad to learn that. after a long
series OF experiments. a leading firm Of
manufacturing druggists has now sue
ceeded in producing grain tablet
which combines all the valuable antacid
properties Of the ordinary bisurated mag

new tablet Of bisurated maEnesia can
now be obtained OF druggists everywhere
