Baron Liebig, in his celebrated work on Animal
Chemistry, SAYS: "An Artificial Digestivgaf luid,
analogous to the Gastric Juice, may be ready pre-
pared from the mucous membrane of the stomach
of the Ok, in which various articles of food, as
meat and eggs, will be softencd, changed and d.
gested just in the same manner as they would be
in the human stomach"
DR.. Combe, in his valuable writings on the
physiology of Digestion" observes that "a d.
intuition of the due quantity of the Gastric Juice
is prominent and al-prevaing cause of Dyspep
sia;" and he that "a distinguished professor
ofmcdicine in London, W no severely afflicted
with this complaint finding everything else to fail,
had recourse to the Gastric Juice, obtained from
the stomachs of living animals, which prored com
pietely successful"
Dr. Graham, author of the famous works on
Vegetable Diet" SAYS: at is remarkable fact in
physiology, that the stomachs of animals macera-
ted in water, impart to the fluid the property OF
dissoving various articles offood, and of efectins
