Scientific Evidence.
Baron Lie6ig in his celebrated work on AMI
nal Chemistry says: 'An Artificial Digestive
Fluid, analogous to the Gastric Juice, may be
readily prepared from the mucous membrane oil
the stomach Of tho Calf, in which various art-
ees offood, rs meat and eggs, will be softened,
changed aid digested, 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 dim'-
mutton Of the due quantity Of the Gastric Juice
is prominent and oll-preyailing cause of Dys-
pepsia = and he states that distinguished pro-
lessor 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 OF living ami
mails, which rored completely suceesya'
Professor Dungiison, of the Jefferson College,
Philadelphia, in his great work on Human Ply
siology, devotes more than iifty pages to an en-
animation of this subject. His experiments with
Or. Beaumont, on the Gastric Juice obtained
from the living human stomach and from ami
mails, are well known. sIn all cases. he says,
digestion occurred as perfectly in the artificial
Us in the natural digestions.'
