most prevalent kinds of dyspepsia arr:
so entirely different from each other as
to require separate treatment. and thai
the remedy for one counteracts the eff

without killing the patient could not be

of Hyomei that the medical profession
entertained the hope of successfully
combating this disease. Experiments
were at once made with this new prep
