What is Dyspepsia ?

Fit OF the StOmach-Whioh Ia caused by .
permanent contraction OF the stomach upon
undigested food. It generally begins imms- |
diately, or short time after eating; Is often |
very severe and obstinate.
9. Flatulence and Acidity.--These symp-
toms arise from the indigestion Of food, which
ferments instead of digesting.
3. C0stiveness and Loss OF Appetite
These symptoms are the effects OF the I'M
natural condition of food in the stomach, and
the want Of pure bile and gastric juice. The
stomach is often painfully distended by wind;
the appetite Is sometimes voracious.
4. Gloom and Depression Of Spirits.-
This state uH6ta many for the enjoyment of
life, and is caused by the impure blood fur
nishsd by imperfect digestion. In this stage
Of the disease, many persons commit suicide.
There is constant foreboding Of evil, and an
indifference and positive inability TO perform
the Offices of life.
5. DiarrhGa.-Atter being at first oostive,
the sufferer is afflicted with diarrhGa which
is owing to q diseased condition of the bowels,
produced by the undigested food, which is
evacuated in the same condition as when
system.
6. Pains in All Parts Of the System
arise from the action of impure blood upon
the nerves. They are felt chiefly in the head,
sides, and breast and in the extremities. In
many cases there Is an uueasiness in the
throat, with q sense Of choking or sufooation
the mouth is often olammy, with bad taste
and furred tongue.
2. COnsumptive Symptoms and Palpita-
tiOn Of the Heart.-Many persons pronounced
as having these diseases have, in fact, nothing
but dyspepsia, the lung and heart disease
being only symptoms.
8. COugh.-This is a very frequent symp-
tom of Dyspepsia, and leads very often into
oonfrm med consumption.
8. Want Of Sleep.-A very distressing
symptom, resulting often in mental derange-
ment.
10. Symptoms of External Re atiOn.-The
patient is affected painfully by cold and heat,
which is owing to unnatural dryness of skin,
and the skin is often affected by eruptions and
letters. The gloomy dyspeptic avoids society
as much as possible.
IL. VOmiting.-A frequent and distressing
symptom. 1t relieves the pain, but emaoiates
and wears out the patient.
12 Dizziness, Dimness of Vision, Head.
ache, and Staggering in Walking.-These
are very alarming symptoms, which are
speedily removed by our medicine; but If
neglected, are quickly followed by numbuess
and sudden death.
IL. 1t is impossible for US to give all the
symptoms of Dyspepsia in 80 small a sp zee,
but the above are considered sufioient-if we
add that the patient loses his memory and
regard to surrounding objects, and frequently
becomes morose and sour in disposition. We
should say, however, that pains in the joints
and stiffness of the limbs, which go by the
name Of rheumatism and neuralgia, are pro.
duced by Dyspepsia. Also, hardness OF the
muscles of the abdomen, which become con-
traoted and hard; and in some cases the bslly
sinks, instead of being gently prominent.
N. B.-Perhaps we have not said enough O
that strongest symptom of Dyspepsia, me In
oholy. We have examined hundreds of cases
Dyspeptics who were SO much affected in theil
minds that they constantly foreboded los, o
their reason, which untitled them for business
of any kind, and many of them have b-er
patients of the Insane Asylum, who are nov
permanently cured by our medicines.

professional services of DR.. William f. Maze
