Magnesia Tablets neutralise the acid, stop the fermentation, and in five minutes your stomach is doing its work in a painless, normal. nanner. If you have dyspepsia. gastritis, indigestion, or just a, plain every-day pain after eating, go to the nearest chemist and get some Bisurated Magnesia Tablets, A large flask costs very little and if you will take as directed you will find you can eat what you like without fear of any following dis- comfort. Further, it is usually found that the simple taking of Bisurated Magnesia adds strength and power to the vital organs: It is urged, however, that the "BISMAG" oval trade-mark sign be seen when purchasing.
