readily prepared from the mucous membrane oil
the stomach Of the Cali, in which various arti-
clcs of food, as meat and eggs, will be softened,
changed aid digested, just in the same manner
as they would DO in the human stomach
DR.. Combc, in his valuable writings on the
Physiology Of Digestion, observes that 6 4 dimi-
mutton Of the due quantity of the Gastric Juice
is prominent and all-prevailing cause Of Dys-
pcpsia; = and he states that distinguished pro-
fcssor Of medicine in London, who was severe
ly afflicted with this complaint, finding every
thing else to fail, had recourse to the Gastric
Juice obtained from the stomachs oil living AMI
mails, which prored eOmpleteiysucces9m.'

siology, dcvotcs more than fifty pages 10 an cx-
Or. Beaumont, on the Gastric Juice obtained
