WHY DYSPEPTICS
 SHOULD EAT
\ PHYSICIANS ADVICE.

indigestion and practically all forms of stomach trouble are .nine times out of ten, due to acidity: therefore stomach sufferers should, that is acid in it's nature, or which by chemical action in the stomach de- velops acidity. Unfortunately. such a rule eliminates most foods which are pleasant to the taste as we'll as those which are rich in blood, flesh and nerve building properties. This is the reason why dyspeptics and stomach sufferers are usually so thin. emanci ated and lacking in that vital energy which can only come from well fed body For the benefit of those suf. ferers who have been obliged to eX- clude fro mtheir diet all starchy. sweet or fatty food. and are trying to keen up miserable existence on gluten products, I would suggest that you should try a meal of any food or foods which you may like, in moder ate amount, taking Immediately after wards teaspoonful of bisurated masnesia in little hot or cold water,
 :his will neutralize any acid which may be present. or which may be formed. and instead of the usual feel ing of uncasiness and fullness. you will find that your food agrees with you perfectly. Bisurated magnesia is Goubtiess the best food corrective and antacid known. It has no direct ac ton on the stomach: but by neutra- l.ting the acidily of the food con- tents. and thus removing the source ol the acid irritation which inflames the delicate stomach lining. it does more than could possibly be done by any drug or medicine. As physi- clan. l believe in the use of medi- cine whenever necessary but I must admit that l cannot see the sense of dosing an inflamed and irritated stomach with drugs instead of get ting rid of the acid-the cause of all the trouble. Get little bisurated magnesia from your druggist, eat what you want at your next meal take some of the bisurated magnesia as directed above. and see if Pm not right"

 The two young dancers. Ahern brothers, appearing this season with Tom Powell's Peerless Minstrels. are past masters in the art of footology.

Without music to furnish them time. they do all sorts of stunts in a dancing act. the like of which has never been seen before. They make a feature of comedy sc>recrow dance. for which they carry special scenery
