DIGESTION.
Digestion is chiefly performed in the
stomach by the aid of a fluid which free
ly exudes from the inner coat OF tha, or
gan, when in state Of health, called the
Gastric Juice. This fluid is the Great
Solvent of the Food, the Purifying, Pre-
serving, and Stimulating Agent Of the
stomach and intesines. Without il there
will be no digestion,-po conversion of
ood into blood, and no nutrition Of the
body; but rather foul, torpid painful, and

injured stomach produces no good Gas.
trio Juice, and hence the disease, distress
and debility which ensue.
PEPSIN AND RENNET.
Pepsin is the chief clement, or great
digesting principle of the Gastric Juice.
1t is found in great abundance in the SOL
id parts oflhe human stomach after death,
and sometimes causes the stomach TO d.
gest itself, or eat itself up. 1t is also
found in the stomach OF animals, as the
OK, calf, &c. II is the material used by
farmers IN making cheese, called Rennel,
the effect Of which has long been the
special wonder of the dairy. The curd-
ling of milk is the first process Of digest
ion. Rennet possesses astonishing pow
er. The stomach of calf will curdle
nearly one thousand times its own weight
Of milk. Baron Liebig states that, "One
par, of Pepsin dissolved IN sixty thous.
and parts of water, will digest urea, and
other food" Diseased stomachs produce
no good Gastric JUICE, Rennet or Pepsn.
To show that this want may by perfectly
supplied, we quote the following:
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE
Baron Liebig, in his celebrated work
on Animal Chomestry, says: "An Arti-
ficial Digestive Fluid may be readily pre-
pared from the mucous membrane ofthe
stomach of the calf, in which various ani-
cles or food, as meat and eggs, will be
soiiened, changed, and digesied, just in
,hs same manner as they would be in the
human stomach"
DR.. Pereira, in his famous treatise on
"Food and Diet" published by WilsBn q
Co., New York, page 35, states the same
great fact, and describes the method OF

Chemistry in the Medical College ofthe
University Of New York, in his "Tex
