For Acid St0machS
 Use Magnesia

The almost universal use of mag nesia by physicians and specialists in the treatment of stomach trou- bles is due to the fact that it neutra- lizes the excessive acid and thus stops food fermentaton-the direct cause of nearly all stomach trou- ble. Of the many forms of magnesla such as ovides, citrates, carbonaoss, sulphates, etc., the one now supplled in, either powdered Or tablet form and especially recommended for acld stomachs is bisurated magnasla, teaspoonful of which in little warm water immediately after eating will instantly neutralize the excessivs acid, stop fermentation, and thus en- sure painless normal digestlQn- Re sure to, get bisurated magnesia rather than any other magnesia, as this form is prepared especially for the treatment of acid stomachs. The five grain tablets are the most con venient for physicians and travellers to carry and two tablets are equiva-
