old dock wall.
The sewer is the old Market street

What To Eat And
PrsUent Indigestion

indigestion and practically all
forms of stomach trouble are, nine
times out of ten, due to acidity; there
fore stomach sufferers. should. when
ever possible, avoid eating food that is
acid in its nature, or which by chemi
cal action in the stomach develops acid
ity. Those sufferers who have been OBJ
liged to exclude from their diet all
starchy. sweet or fatty food, and are
trying to keep up miserable existence
on gluten products, should try a meal
of any food or foods in moderate
amount, taking Immediately afterwards
a teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia in
A little hot or cold water. This will
neutralize any acid which may be pres
ent, or which may be formed, and in
stead of the usual feeling of uneasiness
and fullness, YOU will find that your
food agrees with you perfectly. Bisurat-
ed magnesia is doubtless the best cor
rective and antacid known. 1t has di-
rect action on the stomach; but by neu-
trailing the acidity of the food con-
tents. and thus removing the source of
the acid irritation which in1ames the
delicate stomach lining, 1t does more
than could possibly be done by any
drug or medicine. Do not dose an in
famed and irritated stomach with
drugs but get rid of the acid-the cause
OF all the trouble. Get a little bisurat-
ed magnesia from your druggist, eat
what you want at your next meal, take
some of the bsurated magnesia as di-
rected above and note remarkable re-
