There semes to be no logical reason why the stomach should not digest itself when we consider the fact that 1f secretes digestive fluids and acids which are powerful enough to- disinte- 4rate and digest meats, eggs, fruits, cereals. vegetables and other forms of food taken into it.
 Tn animals which were killed while in full digestion the stomach has un- dergone complete elf-digestion after death, when the body was kept warm: i: and in human beings who have died suddenly. while digestion was going on, it was found at the autopsy that mot only had the stomach been di- xested.= 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?'' Dr. Hunter declared that the principle of 1ifcR in living things protected this organ from being digested by it's own fluids, but Dr. Barnard successfully demonstrated that the hind legs of a living frog, when introduced through a fisfula or artificial opening into the stomach of a dog, vndergoes com plcte digestion, and Dr. Pavy, through similar rexperiment found that the same was true of a rabbits ear.
 While the normal stomach is inn 1nune from sslf-digestion, there are many eases on record, however, in which a long-standing gastritis, and perverted digestion, has completely dfEtsted- or eaton away the mucous membrane Hiring of the stomach, and tn some instances has engendered xaetric ulcer. which ate it's way clear through the stomach wall, and caused a fatal peritonitis-
 Tn all cases of perverted function of ., n; ;o1, by the fnurnerous well known symp> toms Of indigestion and dyspepsia, Sfrart-s Dyspepsia Tablets act as a corrective, restoring it to normal condition. toning up the secretory glands, as well as the lacteal glands. which absorb the food and at the <afs1e time assisting the stomach in dnE all possibility of such conditions arising as will cause perverted func. ficr- gastritiS, gastric ulcer, or the <atins away of the mucous membrane of the stomach
