MAGIC WORK OF SCIENCE.
A Newspaper Man Sees a Strange and
Interesting Experiment-Meat Com
pletely DigeSted in an Open Dish.
Views Of Col. j. r. Fellows,
and Other New Workers.
(Ne1O York ErchGnge.)

It is not often that science makes dis
covery that demands special investigation
on the part Of the newspapers. Once in a
while It does, however, such as occurred
in New York recently.
It has been stated positively that pro-
cess has been found whereby food, mixed
with a certain ferment became digested
before it had even entered the mouth.
Certainly If this were true it would mark
an era in the history of civilization, and
the writer was delegated TO thoroughly
investigate and report upon the same.
The first call was made at the office of
the company which is now manufacturing
the food in question, and l was permitted
to inspect the process of manufacture. l
found it exceedingly elaborate and scien-
tific, and after inspecting it thoroughly l
was shown the way in which it actually
worked.
A piece of fresh meat was placed in an
open dish and some of the pre-digested
food mixed with IL, when the temperature
was raised to that of the stomach. AL
most Immediately there was a change in
the color Of the meat, next its fibers
seemed to separate, and soon it assumed a
liquid form, the same as it does in the
human stomach after being eaten. The
effect, the change, the entire process, was
most wonderful and speedy.
"This, as you see, is demonstration Of
what can be done" said the manager,
"but we prefer that you ascertain just
what this food accomplishes with the
people who use it. Here is a list Of
names, and you are at liberty to see them
and ascertain just what their opinions
may be-"
Armed with this list the writer began a
tour of investigation, with the following
result:
Sergeant Elias B. Dunn, chief of the
Weather Bureau, was found in his Office,
looking exceedingly we'll In response to
my inquiry he said: 81 have used the
pre-digested food Paskola myself and in
my family, and / must say that l have
found it just what is claimed for it. In
fact, have been chanting the praises of
it very steadily ever since ! first began to
use it. Why shouldn't II 1t has built
see how fresh and rosy am, and intend
TO keep So"
Colonel John r. Fellows, the eloquent
District Attorney of New York, in re
sponse to my question said: "If l an
called upon to deliver an address or make
speech upon which much depends, l first
look out for my stomach. When that is
healthy my brain is clear, my thoughts
are logical, and it is a comparatively easy
matter to clothe them in proper language
When l am not feeling well l take Pas
kola, the pre-digested food, which sets the
stomach right, clears the cobwebs from
the brain and sets the machinery o
thought and eloquence in motion. Their
is nothing like Paskola for such pur
pose and believe it has won more case
before jury than you would imagine"
Both Messrs Howe and Hummel, TIN
well-known lawyers, fully confirmed
what l had already heard. Mr.. How
said
Look at me Feel how firm my arm is
You can see | am in perfect health, ant
yet l was, not long ago, advised by m.

present condition is the result of the us
of Paskola. It is labor saving discover
saves your stomach the labor of digest
ing food. Try it as l did, and grow ia
and jolly"
His partner, Mr. Hummel said:
81 have seen a number of people tr
Paskola whose stomachs were 50 wea
that they could digest nothing else, bu
who were able to assimilate this pre-
digested food without the slightest diff
Guilty. / have known an adult ma
wasted to a shadow by indigestion, VIII
gained 40 pounds in three months by il
use"
Wherever l went the reports were til
same, and was forced to the inevitabl
conclusion that great discovery had ce
tainly been made for building up til
system, increasing the strength and prt
longing the life, without any drain {
strain upon the digestive organs, whic
has been the great band of our America
life Certainly the results Of the researc
prove so.
