"I find that Bisurated' Mugnesia taken after most of my meals is the only thing that keeps me free from pain and discomfort, and i take it regularly. I often "prescribe it for my patients, and have had very good results.

This doctor is but one of many who constantly advise the uso of Bisura:ed" Alagnesia in all cases of indigestion. Most stomach trouble is caused by acidity, and the reason why *Bisurated' Magnesia gives quick relief is that it in- stantly neutralises excess acid and soothes, heals and strengthens the infamed stomach lining.

ANNUAL RACE MEETING WEEK-END
Subscription Griffins Of The Season
By Last Quarter"
Subscription griffins have in the past always provided the best sport at race meetings; with the ever present "outsiders" turning and paying, substantial dividends to the few lucky ones. The ponies in this class which are to make their debut at the Annual Meeting are an 'exceedingly even lot and under the cir cumstances many a been struggle should be witnessed.

In my estimation the following appear to be the best of this year's subscription grins: Pagan Love, "Coronation Day. Chun Teen. Spring Beauty. Yum sinig. Tabby Cat. Tempest. Whalsey. Tze Tin, Gordito and Prospero.

PAGAN LOVE THE BEST? To nominate the outstanding sub griffins would be nons too easy a task but at this time I have no hesitation in placing Pagan Love, Coronation Day. Chun Teen and Spring Beauty as amongst the best Of these four, Pagan Love appeals to me moat and may prove to be the likely champion. This pony has a 2.15 mile gallop to his credit, when the last half mile was cover- ed in 1.02 and the last quarter in 30.3/5 A strong finish has fea- tured the majority of Pagan Love's early morning track work and with Mr. F.

CORONATION DAY
This chestnut mare belonging to Dr. S.N. Chau was much coveted at the draw and has lived up to the conndence placed in her. The Dutstanding performance of this sub took place last Sunday when a mile and a quarter gallop was done in 2-50-2/5. The last quarter (34) was a triffe disappointing but It is noteworthy that the last mile was galloped in 2.14. Mr. Frost will ride Coronation Day at the meet- ing and the combination should be well supported.
