In such a case the best and snfest treat ment you can possibly use is to take a tea 6poorful of pure bisurated magnesia in half a glass of water us hot as you can com fortably drink it. The hot water draws the blood to the stomach and the bisurated mag nesia. as physicians can tell you, is a powerful but harmless antacid which quickly neutralizes the excess acid, sweetens your stomach con tents and stops food fermentation. This hot water and magnesia treatment is a far better plan than that of swallowing some plil or tablet which simply artificially digests your food and sends it still a sour, fermenting acid mass into the intestines where It will do almost as much harm as in the stomach. As there are various forms of magnesia be sure in following above directions to ask the druggist for Bisurated Magnesia (either in powder or tablet form) which is especially pre pared for correction of stomach acidity. Try this simple plan of using Bisurated after meals to prevent food fer mentation and to neutralize stomach acidity. You will be astonished at the immediate relief and comfort that always follows the restora tion of the normal process of digestion. -Adv. \ THE HEILBRONNER CO.
