of the digestive organs. This arrangement produces
deficient nutrition and assimilation. By assmila tion

is converted into blood and thence into the solids
body Persons with digestion thus impaired, having
the slightest preiisposition to pulmonary disease if
they take cold will be very liable to have Consumption
of the Lungs in some of its forms; and hold that it
will be impossible to any of Consumption
without first restoring good digestion and healthy
assimilation. The very first thing he done is to
cleanse the stomach anil bowels from all diseased mncs
and slime, which is cl"ggins these organ, that they
