There seems to be no logical reason
why the stomach should not digest it.
self when we consider the fact that Il
secretes digestive fluids and acids
which are powerful enough TO disnte-
CRATE and digest meats, eggs, fruits,
cereals, vegetables and other forms OF
food taken into it.
In animals which were killed while
In full digestion the stomach has un-
dergone complete self-digestion after
death. when the body was kept warm;
and in human beings who have died
suddenly, while digestion was going
on, 1t was found at the autopsy that
not only had the stomach been digest
ed. but also the liver. pancreas. spleen.
and portions of the intestines.
The question naturally presents it.
self what protects the stomach from
self digestion during life?" Or. Hunter
declared that the principle of life"
in living things protected this organ
from being digested by it's own fluids,
but DIR. Barnard successfully demon
strated that the hind legs OF a living
frog. when introduced through a fistula
or artificial opening into the stomach
of dog, undergoes complete digestion.
and DR.. Pavy. through similar expert
ment, found that the same was true
Of a rabbits ear.
While the normal stomach is immune
from self digestion, there are many
cases on record, however. in which a
long standing gastritis. and perverted
digestion, has completely digested or
ing of the stomach. and in some in
stances has engendered gastric ulcer,
which ate its way clear through the
stomach wall. and caused a fatal peri
tonitis.
In all cases OF perverted function Of
the stomach, which manifests itself by
the numerous well-known symptoms Of
indigestion and dyspepsia, Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets act as a corrective, re-
storing Il TO a normal condition, tom
ing up the secretory glands, as well
as the lacteal glands. which absor4y the
food, and at the same time assisting
the stomach in the process Of digestion,
and preventing all possibility of such
conditions arising as will cause per-
verted function, gastritis. gastric ul-
Ger, or the eating away OF the mucous
membrane Of the stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are ex-
ceedingly powerful digestives, a single
grain being sufficient 10 digest 5000
grains Of food. including meats. vege-
tables, cereals, etc. They digest al
bumenous and starchy foods equally
well. Whenever the stomach is in a
weakened condition, and so lacking in
tone, that It furnishes an insufficient
amount of gastric juice, such symptoms
as heartburn. biliousness, headache,
belching of gas and sour eructations
are sure TO appear and make one feel
generally miserable.
Such symptoms, can however, be
overcome and done away with at once.

gested and fermentation, decomposi-
