INDIGESTION. Tho torments which are suffered when the digestive organs fail to do their Work" thoroughly are, unfortunately, so well known to most of us that it is not necessary for the various symptoms of indigestion or dyspepsia to be given in detail here. Indigestion has several sources of origin, the principal being Gastric Catarrh, in which the food becomes covered with mucus, and consequently resists the action of the digestive juices; Gastric Flatulency, the development of wind or gas; Gastric Diarrhoea, mused by the food being hurried through the digestive organs unassimilated, and Constipation". . Constipation is by far the most frequent and obstinate cause of indigestion, .ml it must be rectified or digestion cannot be otherwise than imperfect. Food must be eaten in sufficient quantity, and must be digested and be converted Into blood. Nature makes this one of her most imperative laws of life. During the process of digestion food is entirely changed in composition by the action of the juices of the internal orgahs through which it passes. In the mouth it is thoroughly mixed with the saliva. Then it is swallowed, and enters the stomach, where it is acted upon ky the gastric juices, and becomes partly liquefied. From the stomach it passeß to the emallor intestine—which is about 18 feet in length—and there certain portions of the food are liquefied by the bile, and other juices. The food thus made fluid is in a condition to bo libs ;rbed into and becomes a constituent part of the blood. The Indigestible portion of the food is discharged into the larger intestine, whence it is in tarn expelled from the body together with other refuse matter. Just as certainly as that it is necessary to life that food must be absorbed, so likewise it is essential that the blood must be in a condition to absorb the food. Torpidity of the liver is the chief cause of nearly every ca3e of indigestion, and when tho liver is torpid the kidneys are always sympathetically affected to a greater or lesser extent. The blood, which should be transformed, cleansed, and filtered by the kidneys and liver, then contains urinary and biliary poisons, and is therefore a feeble absorbent of nutriment. This condition of the blood reacts upon the nervous system of the digestive organs, and prevents the flow and alters the quality of the digestive juices. The entire nerve energy of a person suffering from indigestion is weakened owing to the contaminated condition of the blood, and the general feeling of mental and physical depression, which is experienced during an attack of dyspepsia, is due to this cense. 0 The blood must be continuously purified by the action of the liver and kidneys good digestion cannot be expected to occur. ® Many sufferers from indigestion obtain temporary relief by eating predigested foods or taking medicines,-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 less capable of performing their duty, just in tho same way that a person who takes little or no exercise becomes incapable of responding to any demand for exertion. Other sufferers irritate the digestive organs into temporary and abnormal activity by taking purgative medioines wo frequently that presently the stomach and intestines refuse to act except under such 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 the blood, and the stomach and intestines will perform their work os a matter of course. When tho blood is laden with uric acid and other urinary and biliary poisons, it cannot adequately absorb food, and makes but a feeble attempt to do so.
Warner’s Safe Cure ii not ■ purgative medicino. It permanently cures indigestion and dyspepsia, Bimply because it restores the liver and kidneys to health and activity, so that the blood naturally becomes free from urinary and biliary poisons, and ravenous to absorb nutriment freely. Nutriment is then conveyed by the blood to the nerves throughout the body. The nerves of the digestive organs being properly 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 renewal by which life is maintained. Remember constipation or irregularity of the bowels must be overcome. Warner's Bate Pills should, therefore, also he taken in sufficient quantities to ensure one free movement daily. Do not overload the stomach. Avoid tea, coffee, alcohoiio stimulants, and rich or fat foods. Do not eat generously of any solid food. 4) Write for treatise on Liver and Kidney disorders.
