WHAT DYSPEPTIC PEOPLE' SHOULD EAT,

A DIFFICULT PROBLÈM WITH AN KANY SOLUTION.

The famous proverb, “ one man's mest is another man's poison, applice with peculiar force to the dyspeptic, and the same is true with regard to the drugs or dinarily prescribed for indigestion.

Fasting has, of late, bees greatly ad- Tocated in these cases, but it is by no means always a safe course to adopt, as it necessanly weakens the patient, who haa to subsist on his own tissues while his digestive organs get the complete rest which fasting ensures.

The chief thing is to discover a means feeding which combines the greatest of amount of nourishment with the least strain on the digestion; in other words, food which requires a very amall quantity

gastric juice to dissolve it and can be acted upon without much movement of the stomach, while, when absorbed, it must be readily assimilated to make actual flesh and blood.

of

All these qualities are forthcoming in Sanatogen, whose repotation has ed- vanced by leaps and bounds throughout the whole of the civilized world.

WHY THE BOLUTION 19 PABY,

Sanatogen's remarkable effects are due to its composition as well as to its quality. It is a powder of such exceptionally fine character that it is impossible for it to irritate the delicate lining of the stomach, even when that lining is infamed or ulcerated, Moreover, it is composed of the body-building part of pure cow's milk, chemically combined with that form of phosphorus which is found in the nervous ystery and tissues generally. The nutri- tive fements in it have been proved by the fost eminent authorities in the world to fe more easily absorbed than those of

other preparation known to Science. n many forms of indigestion there is an excessive loss of phosphorus salts from the system. Much modern dyspepsia is the result of overstrain of the nervous gye tem, due to the onerous conditions of life, worry and excitement of all kinds, so that the nervous system becomes exhausted and is not able to supply the much needed force for the mechanism of digestion to be arried on perfectly. In this way, again, the stomach becomes more enfeebled and digestion in further rained. By means of however,

the phosphorus if Banstoletely restored the nervous system is to health, so that it can soon supply the tonic force which helps the stomach to recover its normal powers.

CURIOSITIES OF TIBET.

THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17IN, 1912.

A review of the principal acquisitions mado during the year 1911 by the Vie toria and Albert Museum has just been. issed. Among the most interesting objects detailed are some recent purchase of articles relating to Tibet. One of the most important is a head from a full- sized figure of Avalokita, the patron god of Tibet. This is of copper, hammered, repousse, and chased; it is surmounted with an elaborate tiara of five points richly jewelled with turquoises, coral, and other precious stones. The ears have the customary prolonged lobes which are pierced with loops for the attachment of jewelled earrings. The eyes are indicated in coloured enamel, and a small jewel (now loat) has been set in the centre of the forehead, representing the sagrod area or the forehead-mark. The whole is heavily overlaid with gold, so that the effect is that of golden sculptura.

Another Gus specimen of Tibotan sculpture in copper, with similar chased and iuvised work, thickly overlaid in gold, is a figurs of Tara, the Goddess of Meroy, represented standing, in mystic) attitude, on a lotus-throne fitted with an aureole-back, which is detachable. The tiora, which is also detachable, is jewelled with turquoises. The throne and throne back are of wood faced with a decoration of repousse and chased copped overlaid in gold.

RICH JEWELLERY.

A characteristic feature of early Tibetan work is the rich Jewellery with which the gilt metal fgurce of deities were decorated. Two admirable speci mens of this work were acquired. One is 40 ear-ornament of gold in chased and granular filigree work, jewelled with carve (scalptured) turquoises, showing Bower surmounted by a trefoil_plaque #design of a large conventional lotus enclosing a mask of the demon Tamdin, probably anterior to the seventeenth can- tary. The other is a similar gold ear. ring richly jewelled with turquoises and other gems terminating in a pendant of gold wire strung with a pigeon's blood ruby and two pearls. It is monastic work of the eighteenth century, probably from Lhare.

Tibetan religion are two empowering Among the objects illustrative of the Vases (banbum) or holy-water vessels These facts go to show conclusively that used in the Lamaist church during the Sanatogen is the preparation par exce)- sarvice entitled "the obtaining of long lence in the rational treatment of every life," and an altar vessel or box to hold scute stomachic disorder, a fact which is the sacred cake. One of the cases in emphasised when it is atated that not only silvergilt, with hammered, chased, and does Sanatogen putno tax on the open-work ornament jewelled with tur.: stomach, but that it also helps that organquoises, rubies, and emeralde, is BUT. to digest other foods.

The other is of ivory carved with conventional lotus- petal ornament, probably anterior to the Afteenth century, and has a stopper of silver-gilt in the form of an opening lotus bud, surmounted by a miniaturo Chorten (relic-shrine) of carved crystal, together with the rim end foot, mounted in silver-gilt jewelled with turquoises and other gems.

MORE DIFFICULTIES OF THE PROBLEM. It must always be remembered that dyspepsia does not begin and end in the tomach. Dyspepsia due to faulty secre. tion in the intestines in quite as common, and may induce as much suffering. In this latter case, too, Saratogen exercises power for good which cannot be exag. gerated, for, by being all digested in the stomach and leaving no waste, it enables the intestines to recover their tone through the prolonged periods of rest it enables them to enjoy.

No more striking testimony could be plaques, repousse and perforated bearing given to the value of Sanatogen for dysfigures of Tantrik deities, cloud-dragons. peptica than is furnished by the following etc., jewelled with cornelian cameos bear- statement of a well-known medical man:-- "I used Sanatogen in a case of chronic ing similar figures. This is a nineteenth dyspepsis in a patient aged seventy-seven century example from Shigatse. years with very good results. Pain and nauren disappeared, and powers of as similation increased."

Another doctor writes: "I gave Banat ogen to a patient in a condition of extreme debility due to indigestion. It bridged her over this to a condition of convalescence, and her ordinary diet was taken with advantage.

That is always the dyspeptic's great de- sire to be able to take his ordinary diet with advantage and without pain. Sanat- ogen ensures his being able to do this.

TIBETAN ART.

Among the Tibetan religious emblems purchased in a series of objects illustra tive of local painting and textile art, including three tiares, such as are worn by Lamaist abbots, and seven Lamuist temple banners of the seventeenth con. tury, each mounted with an illuminated tempera painting on a cotton fabric pre- pared with a ground of lime. Each of: the tinras consists of ave hinged plaques bearing representations of the five Dhyani Buddhas; one is painted on carvas in illuminated colours, of the seventeenth or eighteenth century; the second is of gold and silk brocade sixteenth or seventeenth contury; the third consists of appliques of painted satin, of the early nineteenth contury; all these were acquired during the British expedition of 1804. The tom ple banners represent among other sub- jecta a deified Lama surrounded by celestial saints and Tantrik demous; a deified abbot with celestial attendants; Buddha Amitayas surrounded by other deities and attendances; and Vajra-pani shown in his fierce Tantrik form.
