Stomach Trouble.

In many cases diseases of the nose
and throat, II neglected and unchecked,
instead Of extending down into the
bronchial tubes, extend along the
oesophagus. or swallow, into the stom-
ach.
The mucus discharge is dropped in
the throat from the back part OF the
nose, and In the daytime Is hawked up
and expelled
At night the nauseatng material still
continues to drop into the throat.
il first collects in the pharynX, then
II is brought into contact with the foul
and impure air from the lungs, and Is
mixed with the germs OF decay.
Decomposition results. and in this
condition the vile material Is swal-
lowed While asleep and goes TO the
stomach.
The decomposing discharges so
swallowed are polsons-not deadly ones,
but polsons, nevertheless. which
act slowly but surely, undermining the
patients constitution.
The thousands OF little glands stu
ated In the lining are free to pour out

food in the healthy stomach.
With disease attacking the lining Of
the stomach, the little glands are
choked up by the swelling. and their
exit Is blocked by the sticky mucous
which has resulted from the infiamma-
ton.
As O consequence there Is not enough
digestive juices formed and poured out
into the cavity OF the stomach.
The food, not having the necessary
materials TO dissolve II, lies In the stom-
ach like lead.
Instead of being converted into nour-
ishment for the blood It is changed
into poisonous gases, which dlstend
the stomach, dilating II 50 that the or
gans press upward on the heart and
lungs.
This causes a sense Of smothering, re-
lief from which is only obtained by
belching up the gas, or It's passage
along the bowels, where It causes q
sense Of distension and rumbling.
There is nausea, and sometimes Yom-
iting, in the morning, with hawking
and gaggng upon arising, and II re-
quires quite an effort 10 free the stom-
ach OF the mass Of mucous that has ac-
cumulated In IL during the night
In some cases there Is waterbrash or
heartburn. with constipation TO COM
plicate matters.
The old plan Of doctoring for stom-
ach troubles consisted In purges and
emetics
Drugs that irrltate or inhamed the
stomach.
Drugs that increased the suffering
rather than allayed II.
Under the Drs. Shores treatment the
infamed and diseased lining OF the
stomach Is first soothed and quieted by
the use Of proper remedies
The sore and inhamed spots are
healed, and the lining OF the organ IS
restored 10 its wonted tone and heal
thy condition.
Under this plan healing drugs quiet
the sore and infamed spots that have
been throwing out quantities OF sticky.
Shiny mucous that is mixed with the
food and has coated II over thus pre-
venting the gastric juices from dissolv-
ing and digesting II.
When once healed the lining OF the
stomach is enabled to serve the pur-
pose that nature intended II TO serve.
The hawking and splitting In the
morning becomes less the appetite for
breakfast returns, there is no more
nausea where there should be desire
for food. the heartburn and waterbrash
pass away, the bloatlng in the stomach
after taking food gives place TO the
pleasant sense Of fullness and accom-
panIes the taking Of a full meal.
The foul gases that were belched up
are no longer formed and the bowels
become regular.
The entire system experiences new
vlgor from the abundance Of nourish-
ment absorbed into the blood, where
foul poisons had previously been Of
fered il.
