TO DYsrsrsrc Suvssasas.-Und er the general
head of Dyspepsia may be classe all the varis-
ties Of indigestion. Its symptoms are 50 Va.
rious. and differ 90 much IN different individuals,
that il is almost impossible to classify them. In
fact, some Of them are utterly Undesirable. 1t
may be safely asserted. however. that half Of
the diseases Of mankind spring from disor-
dered state Of the stomach and that the Other
halt, whatever their origin. reset upon tha' sent
sative and important organ. Among the ordin-
airy indications Of dyspepsia ere dstulsncs, q

and . weary, unrsfreshed feeling on rising in
the morning. palpitation of the heart. depre

mania, loss OF memory, confusion Of thought.
sour stomach, Nth raising of food, and q chock-
ing sensation in the throat. dimness of the svs'
pain in the diaphragm fesbleness and disin-
ration for exertion, and sometimes smacistion
and corpse-like palior. These are . few Of the
direct signs Of dyspepsia, but as it is generally

many additional torments, which are technical

The best advice that can be given to any one
Who has the slightest predispositi To dispep-
sia is 10 fortify his or her digestive organs by

ease proceeds from . lack Of vigor in the
