Hot weather always starts those
quick chemical changes which pro-

vegetables, milk and food products.
Such summer poisons In foods not
only make well stomachs sick but de-
velop with dangerous rapidity in
sensitive, sick or ailing stomachs and

These poisons not only generate
gases and fluids which cause that
bloated, lumpy feeling, heartburn, sour
stomach sbeIching, acidity, but endless
other stomach and bowel miseries.
A sure, safe, quick acting relief has
been found which absorbs and neu-
