It's really wonderful the way these little tablets prevent and relieve all forms of stomach trouble and weakness due to or accompanied by acidity or food fermentation. If you have acid stomach weak- ness, indigestion, loss of power or any other form of internal trouble, go to the nearest chemist for a package of Bisurated Magnesia tablets; take as directed and you'll be amazed and delighted with the results.

A curions marriage custom, which is practised to this very day, is observed by the aborigines of Australia, When a young girl is married and accepted directly as a member of the community of married women, a solemn act takes place, which is as unpleasant as it is unusual.
