Sufferers from Indigestion or
Stomach Trouble
CUT THIS OUT
“Stomach trouble, dyspepsia, Indigestion,
sourness, gas. heartburn, food fermenta
tion, etc., are caused nine times In ten by
ehyenie acid stomach.** says a well known
•uthority.
Burning bydroehlorle acid develops In
the stomach at an alarming rate. The gci<t
irritates and Inflames the delicate stomach
lining end often leads to gastritis accom
panied by dangerous stomach ulcers. Don't
dose an acid stomach with pepsin or arti
ficial digestante that only give temporary
relief from pain by driving the sour, fo
menting food out of the stomach Into the
intestines.
Instead, neutralise or sweeten your aefd
stomach after meals with a little hot
water end Bieurated Magnesia and not
only will the pain vanish but your meals
will digest naturally. There Is nothing
better than Bisurated Magnesia, to sweeten
and settle an acid stomach. It soaks up
the harmful excess acid much as a sponge
or blotting paper might and your stomach
sets end feels fin# in just a fepr minutes.
Bisurated Magnesia can be obtained from
any reliable druggist in either powder or
tablet form. It is safe, reliable, easy and
plearant to use. in not a laxative end is
not at ell expensive.

NOW INDORSES KARNAK
“There’* Nothing Too
Good I Can Say For
This Wonderful Medi
cine” Says Prominent
Council Bluffs Man.
COULN’T FIND ANY RE
LIEF ELSEWHERE.
Took Right Hold Of His
Case,Overcome Troubles
Just Like It Was Made
Especially For Him.
In practically avery neighborhood
In Omaha and Council Rluffa people
are discussing Karnak, the aenaational
new medicine recently put on aale at
the Hherman * McConnell Drug Co.
All over town now. men and women
alike are reporting the moat gratify
ing relief from their aufferlnga aa the
famous medicine baa been given time
to produce lta remarkable effect In
building up health, strength and en
ergy.
Many prominent men In Omaha and
Couitcll Rluffa have come forward and
unhesitatingly placed their ntnmp of
approval upon Karnak. They have
tested the treatment for themaelvea
and tell the results of their experience
for the benefit of the community.
Among such men la I., M. Hedealn.
the well known public accountant of
Council Rluffa, residing at 224 North
Klghth street, who declares: "I don't
know of any better way I ran help
others who are suffering Ilka I did
than by Inducing them to take Kar
nak. .
"My case was on* of long standing."
pv- --
continued Mr. Bedealn. “and I spent
considerable money trying to get re
lief. My stomach gave me no end of
trouble and, for yeara, I suffered day
and night from gas bloating, bilious
ness, headaches and weak, dlszy
spall*.
“Thara would ba sharp pains In my
stomach and 1 often wondered If 1
didn’t have appendicitis. With my ay*
tem In such a disordered condition It
was only natural that I should be
come wsak and run-down and feel
badly all the time.
"Well, air, although all other, modi
clnee and treatments had failed to help
me, Karnak just took right hold of
my case Ilka It was made especially
for my troubles. In fact. It has helped
me *o wonderfully In the short time I
have been taking It that I don't hesi
tate to recommend It to anyone. There
Is nothing too good t could sey for
•this remarkable medicine after the
wav It has restored my health. (
"I will gladly verify this statement
to anybody and all those who are
acquainted with tne know that 1
wouldn't say these things If they were
not true.' '
Try Karnak yourself! And If the
first two bottles do not benefit you,
your money will he returned. Also
remember thet Karnak Pills are an
essential and vltully Important part
of the Kernak Treatment, especially
If constipated.
