w CHANGES OF FOOD IN
THE MOUTH.-Man, if he would preserve
the fabric and ,nailtain the functions Of his
body, must consume food. This must be
converted into blood, upon which the
whole system draws for whatever it re-
ouires. To make blood, the food must De
completely transformed. First it is sub
iected to the mechanical action of the
teeth. But no mechanical action can liquify
solids. Therefore during mastication the
saliva is poured into the mouth. The saliva
IS alkaline, containing salts OF soda, potass
and lime. It serves to lubricate the mouth
and moisten the food, so that it may as'
sume the pasty condition. It's chemical
constituents are needed to convert the
s,archy clements useless as staychl of
bread, potatoes, etc., into sugar. Thus, ifa
little pure starch be chewed, it will become
sweet, being converted into sugar by Che
saliva. The saliva also converts ST..
gar into lactic acid, which the stomach
demands as a condition of its ac-
ton. If fooG is swallowed l!stlessiv and
without appetite, it is certain that the first
conditions Of digestion have been violated.
The food is thrown unprepared iuto the
stomach. The gastric juice cannot do the
Office of the saliva. The result is Dyspepsia.
Now By 3 thorough knowledge Of the
natural laws governing digestion and nu-
triton, and by sk;lIfsl manipulation of
carefully selected stimulant and toniceherbs,
Dr. Fisch, in his Bitters, has provided
remedy which, acting directly upon the
nervous system, stimulates appetite, and, as
the resulting reflex Of this, promotes the
secretion both Of the gastric juice and Of
the saliva, thereby enabling the alimenta.
tive organs 10 convert the materials Of the
food into nutritious blood, and to transform
the quiescent forces Of the food into the
active forces Of vitality.
