Two Klnde of Stomacha Generally speaking there are two kinds of stomachs—the acid and the billons stomach. Everybody has one or tbe other, and each requires different food and care. Do traits, acid foods and drinks make yon feel bad. cause dyspep sia or colic pains nearly every time yon eat them? Then you have an acid stom ach, and it Is well to avoid all foods that nave an excess of acids in them. Yoni greatest remedy after a meal la bicar bonate of soda, carbonic writer or vieby. Do fat meats, greoae and other rich, fatty substances cause nausea, vomiting and sickness? Then yon have a biliona stom ach. Yonr greatest remedy is to avoid all fatty and greasy foods as mnch as possible, and eat fralta and food con taining plenty of acids. Acid drinks are tbe best medicines that you can take. These two kinds of stomachs are ronnd on all sides, and as soon as one be gins to know that be bos a stomach be most ascertain which one he has Then be can doctor himself easily. Occasion ally one changes Into the other In tbe coarse of years. Tbe acid stomach, by tbe continuous nse of fats and avoid ance of acids, becomes a biliona stomach, and vice versa.
