GOOD DIGSTION WITHOUT MEDICINE.
UNIVERSAL ADOPTION OF
ANTACID THEORY
In the old days pain in the stomach after eating or inability to retain food, variously Known as dyspepsia, indigestion, or gastritis, called for the taking of powerful pain-killing drugs or useless and expensive artificial digestants - r the usual result being big medicine bills and an irreparably damaged stomach and intestinal "tract. Modern enlightened research has changed ail this. It has shown conclusively that acid and fermentation, ivhicli irritate and inflame th« delicate stomach lining, is the direct cause of most of the trouble. Specialists therefore nowadays, instofid of giving medicines and drugs, follow the "more' logical plan of neutralising fche dangerous acid by taking immediately after eating,' in\a little water, half a ten spoonful of a form of magnesia prepared, especially for stomach use, and known among chemists as bisu'rated magnesia. This mstanily neutralises the acid, stops food fermentation, and makes tho food contents bland and sweet, thus permitting the- stomach to proceed with its work without hindrance and under normal conditions. Try it and see. for yourself what harm drugs and medicines have been doing, but be sure that you get the genuine bisuratod magnesia.
