DIGESTION.
Digestionis chiefly performed in the siom-
ach BY the aid Of fluid which freely exudes
from the inner coat Of that organ, when in a
state Of health, called the Gastric Juice. This
fluid is the Great Solvent Of the Food, the Pn.
rifying, Preserving ana Stimulating Agent Of
the stomach and intestines. Without it there
will be no digestion-no conversion OF food
into blood, and no nutrition Of the body; but
rather foul torpid painful, and destructive
condition Of the whole digestive apparatus =
A weak. half dead or injured stomach produ.
ces no good Gastric Juice, and hence the dis.
ease, distress and debility which ensue. &
PEPSIN AND RENNET.
Pepsin is the chief element or great diges.
ting principle OF the Gastric Juice. Itis
found in grea, abundance in the solid parts
Of the human stomach after death, and some-
times causes the stomach to digest itself, oil
eat itself up. II is also found in the stomach
Of animals, as tho 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
cordling Of milk is the first process Of diges.
