The new hydropathic cook-book : with recipes for cooking on hygienic principles : containing also a philosophical exposition of the relations of food to health : the chemical elements and proximate constitution of alimentary principles : the nutritive properties of all kinds of aliments : the relative value of vegetable and animal substances : the selection and preservation of dietetic materials, etc., ssing stronger solvent properties than anyother of the fluids concerned in digestion, is probably secretedby the minute extremities or arteries which are expanded uponthe villi of the mucous coat. A thick, strong, circular muscle surrounds the pyloric ori-fice, presenting the appearance of a prominent and even pro-jecting band. This muscular band is the 2jlorusi while theaperture itself is the pyloric orifice. The office of the pylorusis to guard the opening out of the stomach, and prevent thepassage of aliment until it has been sufficiently acted upon bythe gastric juice and the motions of the stomach. The importance attached to the nutritive function by theGreat Architect of the vital machinery, and its complexity ofcharacter, is well indicated in fig. 90, representing the vas-cular connection between the stomach, liver, spieen, and pan-creas. 1.

The stomach is plentifully supplied with arterial blood, the quantity sent to it being greater than that supplied to any other organ except the brain. The vessels of the stomach (fig. 91) form two distinct layers, the external of which is distributed to the muscular and peritoneal coats, and the internal to the villi of the mucous co
