There semes to be no logical reason. why the stomach should not digest itself when we consider the fact that it secretes digestive fluids and acids which are powerful enough to disinte- grate 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, it was found at the autopsy that not only had the stomach been di- gested, but also the liver, pancreas, spleen, and portions of the intestines.
 The question naturally presents it. self: tfWhat protects the stomach from .self-digestion during life?'' pr. Hunter declared that the principle of life'' in living things protected this organ from being digested by it's own fluids, but pr. Barnard successfully dem onstrated that the hind legs of a f1stula or artificial opening into the stomach of dog, undergoes com plete digestion, and Dr. Pavy, through similar experiment, found that the same was true of a rabbits ear.
 While the normal stomach is inn mune from self-digestion, there are many eases on record, however in which 1ong-standing gastritis. and perverted digestion, has completely digested or eaten away the mucous membrane lining of the stomach, and in some instances has engendered gastric ulcer, which ate it's way clear through the stomach wall, and caused @ fatal peritonitis.
 In all cases of perverted function of ho n w by the numerous well known symp> toms of indigestion and dyspepsia, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets act as corrective, restoring it to normal condition, tOning up the secretory glands, as we'll as the lacteal glands, which absorb the food ,and at the scme time assisting the stomach in the process of digestion, and prevent ing all possibility of such conditions arising as will cause perverted func, ton. gastritis, gastric ulcer, or the eating away of the mucous membrane of the stomach
