IT PAYS TO EAT SLOWLY.
Few people chew their fodd sufficiently and to this fac. ascribed a good deal of dyspepsia. The first action ol the digestion of food occurs in the mouth— mastication and the mixing oi food with saliva. Too often food enters l'he stomach in a more or less unbroken state and remains undigested. A famous London doctor used to bluntly tell his patients that the stomach is not a gizzard and resents 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 ne made them count accordingly. Persons who have been careless in their eatinn* or from some other cause are subjects of dyspepsia, should try the tonic treatment for thoir complaint. They should avoid hasUe 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. The Dr Williams ' Medicine Co has issued a free book, "What to Eat and how to Eat," that should be in every home, it pi yes just the information that you want regarding your diet; send a post card to Box 845, G.P.0., Wellington.
