STOMACH TROUBLE.

In many cases Of disease OF the nose
and throat, if neglected and unchecked.
instead OF extending down into the
bronchial tubes, extend along the
eesophagus. or swallow. into the stom-
ach
The mucous 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 nauseating material stIl
continues to drop into the throat.
It first collects in the pharynx. then
it 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 swallowed
while asleep, and goes to the stomach
The decomposing discharges so swal-
lowed are poisons-not deadly ones. but
poisons, nevertheless, which act slowly
but surely, undermining the patients
constitution.
The thousands OF little glands sit
uated in the lining are free 10 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
choloed up by the swelling. and their
exit is blocked by the sticky mucous
which has resulted from the infamma-
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
sInstead of being converted into nour-
ishment for the blood. it is changed
into poisonous gases. which distend the
stomach, dtlating II SO that the organs
press upward on the heart and lungs.
This causes a sense of snofhering,
relief from which is only Obtained by
belehing up the gas or its passage along
the bowels where il causes a sense OF
distention and rum bling.
There is nausea, and sometimes vom-
itings in the morning, with hawking and
gagging upon arising. and it 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 COM
plicate matters.
The old plan of doctoring for stomach
troubles consisted in purges and enc
tics.
Drugs that irritated or infiamed the
stomach
Drugs that increased the suffering
rather than allayed il.
Under the Drs. Shores treatment the
inf1amed and diseased lining OF the
stomach is first soothed and quoted by
the use Of proper reme2es.
The sore and infiamed spots are
healed, and the lining OF the organ il
restored to its wonted tone and healthy
condition.
Under this plan healing drugs quiet
the sore and inflamed spots that have
been throwing out quantities of sticky.
Shiny mucous that Is mixed with the
food and has coated il over. thus pre-
venting the gastric juices from 6issOlv-
ing and digesting It.
When once healed the lining OF the
stomach is enab led to serve the purpose
that nature intended it 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 bIoating in the stomach
after taking food gives place to the
pleasant sense Of fuIlness and accom-
panieS the taking OF a full meal.
The foul gases that were beIcbad IN
are no longer formed and the bowels
become regular.
The entire system experiences new
vigor from the abundance of nourish-
ment absorbed into the blood. where
foul pois0ns had previously been Of
