IT PAYS TO EAT SLOWLY. ' 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 1 state and remains undigested. A famous London doctor used to bluntly tell his patients that tho stomach is not a gizzard, and resents being put upon. The ]a.to Sir Andrew Clarice made his patients count their bites. He said that I every mouthful of animal food required thirty-two bites, and ho made them count accordingly. Persons who have been careless in" their eating or from some other cause are subjects oE dyspopsia, should try the tonic treatment for their complaint. They should avoid haste 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 increase in ambition and energy generally. Try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as a stomach tonic, and see how your- general health improves. These pills are sold by all medicine dealers. A useful booklet, "What, to Eat and How to Eat," will be sent free to any applicant who sends. a, request to the Dr. WilK&ms'' Medicine Co., Wellington,—Advi.
