Thousands Of people suffer moro or less
constantly from furred. coated tongue, bad
breath. sour, burning stomach. frequent
vomiting, rumbling IN stomach, bitter eruc-
tatiOns, gas, wind and stomach acidity and
call It Indigestion when In reality their
trouble is due to gastric catarrh Of tho
stomach" writes a New York physician.
Catarrh Of the stomach is dangerous be-
cause the mucous membrance lining Of the
stomach Is thickened and coating OF
phlegm covers the surface so that tho di-
gestiye nuids cannot mix with the food and
digest them. This condition soon breeds
deadly disease In the formented, unnssiini-
lated food. The blood is polluted and car
ries the Infection throughout the body.
Gastric ulcers are apt to form and fire.
quehtly an ulcer Is the first sign Of q
deadly cancer.
In catarrh Of the stomach good and
safe treatment Is 20 take before meals n
half glass Of hot water az hot as you can
comfortably drink II. The hot water
washes the mucus from the stomach walls
and draw5 the blood TO the stomach while
the bisurated magnesia is an excellent sol
vent for mucus and increases the efficiency
OF the hot water treatment. Moreover. the
Bisurated Magnesia win serve as a pow
erful but harmless antacid which will neu-
tralize any excess hydrOchlOric acid that
may be In your stomach and sweeten its
without distress Of any kind should soon
follow. Bisurated Magnesia IL not laxa-
tive, Is harmless, pleasant and easy TO
take and can be obtained from any local
druggist Don't confuse Bisurated Mag
nesia with other forms Of magnesia milks
rated form (power or tablets), especially
prepared for this purpose.
