+ Scientific Evidence,
Baron Lielfg in his celebrated work on AMI
nal Chemistry says: AN Artificial Digestive
Fluid, analogous 10 the Gastric Juice, may be
readily prepared from the mucous membranco Of
the stomach ofthc Calf, in which various arti-
cIcs Of food, us meat and eggs, will be soitencd,
changed aid digested, just in tho same manner
as they would be in the human stomach s
DR.. Conte, in his valuable writings on tho
Physiology Of Digestion, observes that a dimi-
mutton Of the due quantity Of the Gastric Juice
is prominent and all-prcyailing cause Of Dys-
pepsia = and he states that distinguished pro-
lessor Of medicine in London, who was severe
y afflicted with this complaint, finding every
thing else to fail, had recourse to tho Gastric
Juice obtained from the stomaclls Of living ami
mails, which proved completely successful
Professor Dunglison, of the Jefferson College,
Philadelphia, in bis great work on Human Ply
siology, dcvotcs more than fifty pages to an cx-
animation Of this subject. His experiments with
Dr.. Beaumont, on the Gastric Juice obtained
from the living human stomach and from ami
mails, arc well known. In all cases. lie says,
digestion occurred as perfectly in the artificial
as in the natural digcstions.'
