An Unsolvable_a';blem‘ Which Has Puzzled Physicians of All Schools | Package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Sent Fre: A Tri There seems to be no logical reason why the stomach should not digest it- self when we consider the fact that it secretes digestive fluids and acids which are powerful enough to disin- tegrate and digest meats, cggs, 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 waws 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 selt_digestion during life?” Dr, Hunter declared that the “principle of life” in living things protected this organ from being digested by its own fluids, but Dr. Barnard successfully demon- strated that the hind legs of a living frog, when introduced through a fistul or artificial opening into the stomach of a dog, underkoes complete digestion, and Dr. Pavy, through similar experi- ment, found that the same was true of a rabbit’s ear. While the normal stomach is immune from self-digestion, there arc many cases on record, however, in which a long-standing gastritis, and perverted digestion, has completely digested or eaten away the mucous membrane lin- ing of the stomach. and in some in stances has engendered gastric uicer. which ate its way clear through the stomach wall, and caused u fatal peri- tonitis, In all cases of pervertgd tion of the stomach. which manifests itself the numerous well known symptoms indigestion and dyspepsia Stuart’s | Dyspepsta Tablets act as @ ¢orrective restoring Jt to a normal condition, ton- | ing up the secretory giands, s well as as the lacteal glands. which absorb th 2 {00, and at ‘the same time assisting | the stomach in the process of digestion |and preventing all possibility of such onditions arising as will cause per- verted function, gastritls, gastric ul- | cer, or the eating away of the mucous membrane of the stomach Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets are ex ceedingly powerful digestives, u single grain being sufficient to digest 3,000 grains of food. including meats, vege- tables, cerenls « They digest al- bumenous and sturchy foods equally well.
