RATIONAL INDIGESTION CURE.

• By "Sano." Food m_st be eaten in sufficient quantity, and must ho digested, and ba converted into blood. Mature makes this one of her most imperative laws of life. During tho process of digestion food is entirely changed in composition by tho action of the juices of tho internal organs through which it passes. ' In the mouth it is thoroughly .mixed wiibh the saliva. Then it is swallowed, andl enters stomach, whero it ia acted upon by tho gastric juioes, and becomes partly liquefied. From the stomach it passes to the smaller intestine^—which is about 18 feet in length —and thero certain iportions of tho food are liquefied by tho bile and other juices. Tho food thus mado fluid is in a condition, to bo absorbed into and become a constituent part of the blood. Tho indigestible portion of the food is discharged into the larger intestine, whence it is in turn expelled from, the body together with other refuse mat- ' tor. Just as certainly as that it is necessary to life that foodi must bo absorbed, so, likowi-e, it is essential that the blood must be im a condition to absorb tibo food Torpidity of the liver is the chief cause of nearly every case of indigestion, and when tho liver is torpid tho kidneys are generally sympathetically affected. Tho blood, which should _ be transformed, cleansed and filtered bythe kidlneya and liver, then contain uric and biliary poisons, andl is therefore a feeble absorbent" of nutriment. This condition of the blood react® upon the nervous system of the digestive organs, and) prevents the flow and alters the quality of the digestive juioes. The entire nerve energy of a person suffering from indigestion is -weakened, oh ing to the contaminated condition of the blood, "and tho general feeling of mental and physical depression which iw experienced during an attack of dyspepsia, is due to this cause. The blood must he continuously purified by tho action of the liver and kidneys, or good digestion cannot be expected to occur. Many sufferers from indigestion obtain temporary relief ,by eating pre-di-gosted foods or taking medicine.", such as pepsin, which act as digestives in the intestines. A course of such treatment merely encourages a slothful action of the digestive organs and causes them to become gradually weaker and I less capable of performing their duty, j just in the same way that a person i who takes little or no exercise becomes f incapaiblc of responding to any demand for exertion. Other sufferers irritate the digestive organs into temporary and! abnormal activity by taking purgative medicines co frequently that presently the stomach and intestines refuse to act except -under s-uch irritating stimulation. The only rational and permanent cure for indigestion is to create such a condition of the blood that each corpuscle becomes hungry for food, and ready and eager to absorb it. The digestive secretions will then respond to the demands of tho blood, and the stomacli and intestines will perform, their work as a matter of course. When the blood is laden with urio and) biliary poisons it cannot adequately absorb food, and) makes hut a feeble attempt to do so. "Warner's Safe Cure is not a purgative medicine. It (permanently cures indigestion and dyspepsia, simply because it restores the liver and .kidneys to health and activity, so that tho bkx>d iiaturally becomes free from -uric and biliary poisons, and ravenous to absorb nutriment freely. Nutriment .is then conveyed by the Wood to the nerves throughout the body. The nerves of the digestive organs being properry nourished, the organs are in a condition to do their work efficiently. Nature is merely aided in her efforts to preserve a balance in the manifold and complex processes of waste and rerewal by which life is maintained. In addition to the regular 5s and 2s 9d bottles of Warner's Safe Cure, a concentrated form of the medicine is now issued at 2s <xl per bottle. Warner's Safo Cure (Concentrate*!) is not cempounded with alcohol, andi contains the same number of doses as the c.» •bottle ot Warner's Safe Cure. H.
