The Proper Way to Eat.

At recent meeting of medical men
DR.. F. A. Burial spoke of the amount
Of mischief done by the very common
habit Of eating the meals rapidly, &C.
cording, to the farmers motto Of
"Quick to eat and quick to work"
Thorough mastication was Of the ut
most Importance, and Of course this
presupposed proper condition Of the
teeth. Gastric digestion was often
weakened and much distress was
caused by the ingestion Of too much
fluid with the food, particularly at the
beginning Of a meal. Another factor
in causing dyspepsia was the habit
Of eating food in silence or without
that mirth and good fellowship so
necessary to insure a nervous c0ndi-
ton to the normal action of the d.
gestive organs. These little details
might seem trite and unimportant, but
It was the duty of the careful physi-
clan to instruct his patients in regard
to them. The long continued and free
use Of digestive agents served to make
the digestive organs lazy and inactive.
