IT PAYS TO EAT SLOWLY
■•'Few people chew Ihcir- food sufficiently, and to this fact is inscribed a good deal of dyspepsia. Tho first action of the digestion of food occurs in the mouthmastication and the mixing of food with saliva. Too often food enters the stomach in a more or less unbroken, stale, and remains undigested. A famous London doctor used to bluntly toll his patients that the stomach, is not a gizzard and resents being put upon. Iho lale Sir Andrew Clarke made his patients count thoir bites. Ho said that every mouthful of animal food required thirtytwo bites, and he made them count accordingly. Persons who have been careless in iheir eating or from some other cause are subjects of dyspepsia, ■should try the tonic treatment for their complaint. They should avoid haste at mea time, and take a course of Dr. Williams Tink Pills to restore stomach tone. Ihey act directly on the blood, and the first response from the stomach is a better appetite, freedom from distress, after eating, and "an increase in ambition and energy «enorally. Try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as a stomach tonic and eeo how your general health improves. These pills are sold by all medicine dealers. The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co. has issued a free book, "What to Eat and How to Eat," that should bo in every home. It gives just tho information that you wnnt regarding youi\ diet; send a postcard to .Box 815, G.P.0., Wellington.
