Accumulation of Gas
In The Stomach
One OF the Nest Common Symptoms
of Dyspepsia and Deranged
Digestion.

The presence Of a small quantity OF
gas IN the alimentary canal may be de-
scrIbed as constituting the ordinary con-
dition, rs certain foods, such as peas,
beans, etc, naturally eliminate and
create gas while undergoing digestion.
II IS only when this gas accumulates
20 such extent as 10 cause inccuveni-
ence. and Delching. that a person may
DC said to be suffering from hatulence.
This collection Of gas becomes IN ex-
IRENE eases so great that q swelling
presents itself in the pit OF the stom-
ach; and when this stage IS reached.
complaint is made that this part feeis
tender to the touch. the clothes OF the
person being lo0sened 20 obViate tina
distress OCcasioned by pressure.
Attempts are usually made TO get rid
OF this stOmach-gas Dy eructation, and
when this is accomplished Infants are
very subject 10 hatuIence, especially
when their natural food is taken away
too hastily, and when food other than
that provided for them By nature Is
given them Mothers and nurses ars

have various remedies for It, the most
popular OF which is charcoal, which re-
lieves the trouble completely. by absorb
