CAUSES OF INDIGESTION.
How Certain Ills Which Affect tn c
Stomach Become Chronic.

Stomach Become Chronic.
The causes of chronic indigestion are
manifold, but usually and almost al.
ways In the beginning. even when the
stomach finally becomes actually dis
cased. the condition is due to improper
eating. 1t may not be that the sufferer
eats too much. although very many
people who are not gluttons do that,
but he eats improperly. One who suf-
fers from dyspepsia or who wishes to
avoid such suffering should remember
that the stomach cannot do all the worl,
Of digestion. Before it enters the stom-
ach the food must be finely divided
and mixed with the saliva. which is as
certainly digestive fluid as is the gas
trio juice. Gladstone. it is said. used
to chew every mouthful OF food thirty
two times. one for each tooth, before
he swallowed ii.
Long mastication of the food is use.
full in many ways. In the first place,
1t should appeal to all who delight in
the pleasures of the table, for if the
food is savory ii is tasted longer and
better when we'll chewed. Again. long
mastication mixes the food we'll with
the saliva and begins its digestion. and
this Sweetens the starchy food and inn
proves its taste. Finally, If one eats
slowly, he will have less time to eat
much, and hunger is appeased and n
feeling Of safety is attained before the
stomach can become overloaded
While one is chewing. the food should
be moved from side to side of the
mouth that the admixture with the sa-
Iva may be more thorough.
Too much fluid should not be taken
with the meal, but it is not a wise plan
to take none, as is sometimes recon-
mended. The gastric Juice should not
be too much diluted. but if the food i.
well moistencd the juice acts better
and more rapidly. one glass of water
with meal is about the right amount
Nool water, moreover. in moderate
quantity stimulates the secretion of
gastric juice, and wneglassful of Ice
water taken before the meal gives a
fillip to the appetite without any of the
drawbacks of liquor,
If in spite Of all precautions chronic
indigestion persists. one should try the
experiment of eating only one kind OF
food at mcal-mcat. fish or eggs.
without bread and potatoes. or bread
and butter without animal food. The
stomach which rebels at a mixed meal
will often do its work satisfactorily If
offered only one article of food at a
time.-Youth's Companion.

Triumphs of Modern Surgery.

Wonderful things are done for
the human body by surgery. Or
gans are taken out and scraped
and put back, or they may be re-
moved entirely; bones are spliced; ;
pipes take the place of diseased
sections of veins; antiseptic dress
ings are applied to wounds,
bruises, burns and like injuries be-
fore inflammation sets in, which
causes them to heal without mat
uration and in one-third the time
required by the old treatment.
Chamberlain Pain Balm acts on
this same principle. 1t is an an
