the grave: The scientific evidence upon
which 1t is based, is in the highest degree

SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE.
baron Liebig in his celebrated work on
Animal Chemistry, says: "An artificial di-
gestive fluid, analogous to the pnstric ;uica
may be readily prepared from the mucous
membrane Of the stomach of the calf. in
which various articles Of food, as meat and
eggs, will be softened changed and digested.
Just IN the same manner as they would be
| in the human stomach"
Dr. Combc, in his valuable writings on the
"Physology of Digest H." observes that ~
ammunition OF the duequantity Of the gns.
tric juice Is prominent and all prevailing
cause of Dyspepsia " and he states that {.
distinguished Professor of Medicine in Lon
don, who was severely afflicted with this
complaint, finding everything else to fail, had
recourse to the gastric juice. obtained from
the stomach of living animals, winch proved
to be perfectly successful"
Dr. Graham, author Of the famous works
on vegetable Diet" says at is a remark
