TO GET RID OF
STOMACH TROUBLES
An
English Doctor writes :-
"I find that 'Bisurated" Magnesio taken after most of my meals is the only thing that keeps me free from pain and discomfort, and I fakt it regularly. I often prescribe it for my patients, and have had very good restalis."
(Signed) Dr. H. GM.., N.R.C.S.. L.R.C.P. THE English doctor is the most conservative medical the world, and when be not only recommenda but personally uses a remedy there can be no more con- vincing proof of its efficacy. This doctor is but one of many who constantly advise the use of Bisurated ' Magnesia in xil cases of imdigestion. Most stomach trouble is caused by' scidity, and the reason why 'Bisarated Magnesia gives quick relief is that it - stantly pentralises excess acid and soothes, heals and strengthens the inflamed stomach lining. Nothing toold be simpler, safer or surer. If you suffer with indigestion or stomach disorder of any kind pat your faith in European science and make an end of your troubles by taking 'Bisurated' Magnesia after eating or whenever pain is felt.
