STOMACH TROUBLE

In many cases Of disease Of the nose
and throat If neglected and unchecked,
'nsteod Of extending down into the
bronchial tubes, extend along the
oosophagus, or swallow, into the stom-
ach
The mucous discharge is dropped in
the throat from the back part of the
nose ana in the daytime is hawked up
and expelled.
AT night the nauseatlng material still
continues TO drop into the throat.
It first collects in the pharynx, then
1t is brought into contact with the foul
ana impure air from the lungs. and il
mixed with the germs Of decay.
Decomposition results, and in this
condition the vile material is swallowed
while asleep and goes to the stomach
The decomposlng discharges so swal-
lowed are poIsons-not deLdly ones but
polsons nevertheless, which act slowly
but surely undermining the patients
constitution
The thousands Of little glands sltuat-
ed in the lining are free to pour out the
juices that are needed TO digest the
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 lnnamma-
ton.
AS a 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 lies In the stom-
ach like lead
Instead Of being converted into nour-
ishment for the blood It Is changed in
10 poisonous gases, which distend the
stomach dilating II so that the organs
press upward on the heart and lungs
This causes sense Of smothering,
relief from which is only obtained by
belching up the gas or It's passage
along the bowels, where II causes
sense Of distentlon and rumblng.
There is nausea, and sometimes v0m-
itlng, in the morning, with hawking and
gagging upon arising, and II requires
an effort to free the stomach Of the
mass Of mucous that has accumulated
during the night.
In some cases there Is waterbrash or
heartburn with constipation to compll-
cate matters.
The old plan Of d0ctorlng for stomach
troubles consisted In purges and enc
tics
Drugs that irrltated or inhamed the
stomach.
Drugs that increased the suffering
rather than allayed II.
Under the Drs. Shores treatment the
inflamed and diseased lining Of the
stomach Is first soothed and quieted by
the use Of proper remedies.
The sore and innamed spots are
healed, aud the lining OF the organ is
restored to its wonted tone and healthy
condition.
Under this plan healing drugs quiet
the sore and innamed 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 dlssolN-
ing and digesting II.
When once healed the lining Of the
stomach is enabled to serve the purpose
that nature intended II 10 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 bloatng In the stomach
after taking food gives place to the
pleasant sense Of fullness and accom-
panles 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 nourlsh-
ment absorbed into the blood where
foul poisons had previously been Of
