Indigestion, a phase of dyspepsia which has been called the American disease, le very common, and its dis- agreeable symptoms are but toe, well known. Chronic indigestion, or 'dye. pepsia, is very prevalent, and in med. 'ical phrase an acute &tease is opposed' to chronic in the sense that while a chronic disease runs a long time the acute form is attended with severe symptoms and is likely to come speed-, ily to a crisis. Acute indigestion, therefore, Is a con., dition in which the digestive organs, because they are either naturally wealr or are woen out, overworked or tempo.. redly abused, fail to perform their functions and the whole system 10 'thrown "out of gear." This may be due primarily and directlyto overeat- ing or to eating improper food, to. gorg. Ing the .stomach with inadequately masticated food, to %retarding its' nor. mal action with too 'much liquid or td other local influences. In cases of acute indigestion or dm pepsia there generally is intense pain, often followed by sickness and vomit+ Ing of the surplus or offensive matter by which the stomacinseeks to correct the effects of abuse and regain a nor- mal eondition. But it does not always succeed. Other measures of relief also fall, the' anachinery breaks down, and death ensues..
