FAST EATING CAUSES DYSPEPSIA. Few people chew their food sufficiently, and to this fact is ascribed a good deal of dyspepsia. The first action of the digestion of food occurs in the mouth — mastication and the mixing of food with saliva. Too often food enters the stomach in a more or less unbroken state and remain* undigested. A famous London doctor used to bluntly teH his patients that the stomach is not a gizzard and resente being put upon. The late Sir Andrew Clarke made his patients count their bites. He said that every mouthful of animal food required thirty-two bites, and he made them count accordingly. Persons who have been careless in their eating or from some other cause are subjects of dyepepsia, should try the tonic treatment for their complaint. They should avoid haute at meal time and take a course of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to restore stomach tone. They act directly on the blood, and the first response from the stomach is a better appetite, freedom from distress after eating, and an increaee in ambition and. energy generally. Try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as a. stomach tonic and gee how your general health improved. These pills are sold by all medicine dealers.— Advt.
