DIGESTION.
Digestion is Chiefly performed in. the
stomach by the aid of fluid which froAy
exudes from the inner coat of that organs
when in a state Of health, called the Gastric
| Juice. This fluid is the Great solvent OF the
Fool, the Purifying, Preserving, and S,imula-
ting Agent of the stomach and infonstines-

painful, and destructive condition OF the
whole digestive apparatus. A weak, hall
dead, or injured stomach produces no good
Gastric Juice, and hence the diseasa dis

SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE!
BARON LlEBIc, in Lis celebrated work on
nimal Chemistry, sa vs. Gan Artificial Di-
esiive Fluid analago us 10 the Gastric Juice,
may be readily prepared from the nucous
nmembrane Of the stomach of the Calf,
which various articles of food, as meat and
eggs. will be soficned, changed, and dges-
ted, Just in the same manner as they would
be i'm the human stomach"
DIR. Pereira in his famous treatise on
'tFood and Die,,n published by Fowlers Ss
Wells, New York, page 35 states the same
great fact, and describes the method OF prep
aration There are few higher authorities
than DR.. Pereira.
DR. Combe, in his valuable writings on
the "Physinlogy of Digestion" observe
that "a diminu,ion of the due quantity of
the Gastric Juice is prominent and all-pre-
vaiing cause of Dyspepsia )" and he state,
that "a distinguished professor of medicine
in London, who was severely afflicted viii
this complaint finding every thing else 10
fail. had recourse TO the Gastric Juice, oh
tanned from the stomach Of living animals
which proved completely successful"
DR.. Graham, author of the famous work
on "Vege,able Diet" says: cit is remar-
kable fact in physiology, that the stomachs
OF animals, macerated in water, impart TO
the fluid the property of dissolving various
articles of food, land of effecting a kind of
artificial digestion of them in no wise diff
ferent from the natural digestive process"
