would be by a healthy Stomach. It Isdolng wonders

posed to be on the verge of the grave The Scien
tific Evidence upon which it Is based, is la the
Mgheef'degree curious and remajwble. ,
Baron Leiebig, In his celebrated work on Animal
Chemistry, says: "An Artificial Digestive Fluid,
anaogons to the Gastric Juice, may be prepared from
the mucous membrane of the stomach of the Ox, In
which various articlea of food, as meat and eggs,
will bo toftmtd, changtd, and diguUd, jut in th
