and remarkable.
Scientific Evidence-Baron Liebig in his celebrated
work Animal Chemistry says: An Artificial Digestive
Fluid analogous to the Gastric Juice may be prepared from
the membrane of the stomach of the Ok IN which
articles of food meat and eggs will be oftened
changed and dgesed just the same manner they would
/ be in the human stomach.
Dr. Preira in his famous treatise on Food and Diet
published by Fowler Wells, New York, page %, states
the great fact and describes the method of preparation
There are few higher authorities than Dr. Prera.
Dr. Conbe in his valuable writings ON the Physiology
of Digestion observes that dminuion Of the due guam

cause of Dyspepsia and he states that 81 distinguished
professor of medicine in London who severely afflicted
with this complaint finding every thing else to TAIL had re-

fifty pages To examination OF this subject His expert

from the living human stomach and from animals well
known ain all cases. says digestion occurred per-

DR.. John w. Draper, Professor of Chemistry in the Col

Chemistry page 1885, says: has been aqueson whether

fact that may readily separated from the stomach of the

All modern works Chemistry, Materia Medca and Ply
soogy and all good Medical Dictionaries descrbethe char

details respectingit.
Theact that Artificial Digestive Fluid or Gastric Juice
perfectly resembling the natural uid may be readily pre-

Dyspepsia naturally does such use to the
