IT PAYS TO EAT SLOWLY
Few people chew their foodsufßciently and to this fact is ascribed a good cteal 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 remains undigested. A famous London doctor used to bluntly tell his patients that the stomach is not a gizzard and resents being put lipon. 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 mad© them count accordingly. Persons who have been careless in their eating or from some ether cause are subjects of dyspepsia, should try the tonic treatment for their complaint. They should avoid haste at meal time and take a couse of Dr. William's Pink Pills to restore stomach tone. They act directly on the blood and the first response from Hie 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.
