DIGESTION.
Digestion is chiefly performed in the stom-
ach by the aid OF fluid which freely exudes

fluid is the Great Solvent Of the Food, the Pu.

the stomach and iniestnes. Without itthere
will be no digestion--no conversion of food
into blood, and no nutrition Of the body; but

| PEPSIN AND RENNET.
| Pepsin is the chief element or great diges
ting principle Of the Gastric Iuice. 1t is
1 found in great abundance in the solid parts
of the human stomach after death, and some
times causes the stomach to digest itself, or
eat itself up. II s also found in the stomach
of animals, as the OK. calf. &c. 1t is the ma
terial used by farmers in making cheese,
called Rennet. the effect Of which has long
been the special wonder Of the dairy. The
cording OF milk is the first process of diges.

one thousand times its own weight of milk
