How To Treat. • Medical authorities state that nearly nine-tenths of the cases of stomach trouble, indigestion, sour ness, burning, gas bloating, nausea, etc., are due to an excess of hydro chloric acid in the stomach and not as some believe to a lack of diges tive juices. The delicate stomach lining is irritated, digestion is delay ed and food sours, causing the dis agreeable symptoms which every stomach sufferer knows BO well. Artificial digestents are not needed in such cases and may do real harm.* Try laying aside all digestive aids and instead get from any druggist a few ounces of Bisurated Magnesia and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after eating. This sweetens the stom ach. prevents the formation of excess acid and there Is no sourness gas or pain. Bisurated Magnesia (in powder or tablet form—never liquid or milk) is harmless to the stomach inexpensive to take and is the most efficient form qf magnesia for stom ach purposes. It is used by thous ands of people who enjoy their rheals with no more fear of indigestion. G. A. Gorgas.
