TELLS DYSPEPTICS WHAT TO EAT Avoid Indigestion, Sour Acid Stomnrh, Hrnrthurn, Gnn On Stomach. Etc. Indigestion and practically all forms of stomach trouble, say medi cal authorities, are due nine times out of ten to an excess of hydro chloric acid in the stomach. Chronic "acid stomach" Is exceedingly danger ous and sufferers should do either one of two things. Either they can go on a limited and often disagreeable diet, avoiding foods that disagree with them, that Irritate the stomach and lead to ex cess acid secretion or they can eat as they please in reason and maks it a practice to counteract the effect of the harmful acid and prevent the for mation of gas, sourness or premature fermentatior# by the use of a little Bisurated Magnesia at their meals. There Is probably no better, safer or more sellable stomach antiacid than Bisura<.ed Magnesia and it is widely used for this purpose. It has no direct action on the stomach and is not a digestant. But a teaspoonful of the powder or a couple of five grain tablets taken in a little water with the food will neutralize t.he excess acidity which may be present and prevent its further formation. This removes the whole cause of the trouble and the meal digests natur ally and healthfully without need of pepsin pills or artificial digestants.
