The profit of a gold mine depends,
not on the amount of rock crushed
under the stamps but upon the
amount of gold which can be extrack-
ed form the rock. In a similar way
the value of the food which is eaten
does not depend upon the quantity
which is taken into the stomach but
npOn the amount of nOurishment ex-
tracted from it by the organs of nu-
triton and digestion. When these
organs are diseased they fail to ex-
tract the nourishment in sufficient
quantities to supply the needs of the
several organs of the body, and
these organs cannon work without
nourishment. The result is heart
