ACID AND ALKALI IN THE STOMACH.
DIGEST THE POOD NATURALLY IF IN RIGHT PROPORTION; IP NOT,,THEN DYSPEPSIA.
Acid and alkali ■ make up: the liquid .known as gastric juice which digests your food: '-. '■ : If through abuse of the .stomach or weakness of blood or through scores of other causes this gastric juice is not made .up correctly of acid and alkali, your stomach cannot digest food. ' Such a stomach then , acts as a pit, where the-food lies, ferments, decays, is thrown off at last, cither iu the intestines, or is vomited from the 6ystem. If' thrown.into,-the intestines a large -proportion .of.-it is. taken up and passed into-,.tho blood;, for the intestines aro covered on the insido surfaces with millions of little mouths,, which are placed there to suck up nourishment for the .blood. '"'
You may readily, see that if instead of good, rich nourishment, there are vile, poisonous, fermented bile and acid, these same little mouths suck some of it by necessity, and pass it into the blood. Tho blood, in turn, throws it off, and the .system is immediately placed in an imperfect state.
Tho blood is weakened, tho tissues lose strength, the skin becomes diseased, and man in general 6uffcrs in a score of places. Then, again, the blood furnishedgas-tric-juice to tho.stomach, for when the gastric juice is not needed for digestive purposes it goes back to the Wood. When food comes into the stomach the nerves along the aljmentary canal .'and in the mouth signal the brain for help, and the blood immediately furnishes sufficient gastrio .juice to do the work well and quickly. Dr. Sheldon's Digestive -Tabules go into the: stomach, balance tho gastric. juice, digest the f00d,.: are taken up by the blood, purify it, and when the food comes again, to the stomach a "natural gastric juice'of right proportion greets it, and does tho work : perfectly. .After a time these little tabules restore Nature, build up the gastric juice, and there is no longer dyspepsia.
Dr. Sheldon's Digestive Tabules aTe obtainable everywhere at 2s. Gd.' per tin of 80 Tabiilcs; '6
