Too Mucli
ACID
M any people, tw» hours after
eating, suffer iadigcslinn as
they call it. It is usually excess acid.
Correct it with an alkali. The best
way, the quick, harmless and efficient
way, is Phillips’ MDk of Magnesia.
It has remained for 50 years the
standard with physicians. One spoon
ful in ■water neutralizes many times
its volume in stomach acids, and at
once. The symptoms disappear in
five minutes.
You -will never use crude methods
when you know this better method.
And you -will never suffer from excess
acid when you prove out this easy
relief. ,
Be sure/to get the genuine Phillips’
Milk of Magnesia pr^ribed by
physicians for 50 years in correcting
excess acids. 25c and 60c a bottle—
any drug store.
The ideal dentifrice for clean
teeth and healthy gums is Phillips’
Dental Magnesia tooth-paste.
