Magnesia Baths
For Indigestion
Doctor Recommends Them In
Place of Drugs. Pepsin. Soda
or Artificial Digestents,


only those in constant touch with
sufferers from ind digestion and dys-
pepsia can fully realize the harm
done by the improper use OF arti-
fetal digestents or drugs like pepsin
or soda pills and tablets in the treat
ment of stomach trouble" declares
wei known physician.
In fully nine cases out Of ten di-
gestive trouble Is caused by an ex-
cess OF hydrochlorlc acid in the
stomach, which sours and ferments
the food. creating gas on the stom-
ach. and often causing intense pain
or burning.
The forcing of food from stomach
10 intestines with artificial diges-
tents in such case is almost Grim
mai folly, as serious Intestinal indi-
gestion may very easily follow. In
stead the stomach should be given
magnesia bath to clean out the
ACIDS, swceten the food contents
soothe and allay inflammation and
irritation of the stomach walls and
thus permit the normal healthy di-
gestion of the food.
You can give your acid inflamed
stomach no finer treatment than a
magnesia bath. 1t is simple. easy
and pleasant to take. cannot injure
the stomach and is not at all eX-
pensive. Just set n small bottle of
Bisurated Magnesia teither tablets

a teaspoonfui OF the powder or two
tablets in glass of water and
drink II at every meal for a few
days and your stomach will act and
feel fine. 1t must be understood
that | do not advise the use of such
forms of magnesia as citrates, ace
tates, sulphates, milks or lump mag
nesia. One of these might do more
harm than good: ! believe that
nesia should be used to neutralize
an acid stomach. This form is not
difficult to obtain. The best drug
gists have II and in the -bisurated
