THE TRUE
DIGESTIVE FLUID,
or, (a*trie Juice.
Prepared from RENNET, orthe fourth STOMACH OF
Till-: ON, after directions of KAItON I.IKBIG, the
great Physiological Chemist, by J. S. HOUGHTON,
M. D. Philadelphia, Pa.
This is a truly wonderful remedy for IN" DIGESTION,
DYSPEPSIA, JAUNDICE, LIVER COMPI.AINT,
CONSTIPATION, and DEBH.ITY, Curing after Na
ture's own method, by Nature's own Agent, the Gas
tric Juice.
03-Half a teaspnnnfnl of PEI SIN, infused in water, will
digest or dissolve, jFicr Pounds of Koost Beef 1 7 about
two hours, out of the^toinach.
TEI'SIN is the chief element, or Great Digesting
Principle of the Gastric Juice—the Sulrent of the Food,
the Purifying, Preserving, and Stimulating Agent of the
Stomach and Intestines. It is extracted from the Diges
tive Stomach of the Ox, thus forming an ARTIFICIAL
DIGESTIVE FI.UID, precisely like the natural Gastric
Juice in hs Chemical powers, and furnishing a COIUI'LETK !
and I'F.ftKECT si BSTUITE for it. By the aid of this pre- [
paratinn, the pains and evils of DYDIGFSTIOJY and '
I) YSI'F.PSfJi are reinov. d. just as they would be by a
healthy stomach. It is doing wonders for Dyspeptics,
curing cases of DEBILITY, EMACIATION', NEK VOUS
DECLINE, and DYSPEPTIC CONSUMPTION, sup
posed to be on the verge of the grave. The Scientific
Evidence upon w liich it is based, is in the highest degree
CURIOUS and REM AUK ABLE.
Scientific Evidence!
BARON LIKBIG in his celebrated work on Animal
Chemistry, says: "An Artificial Digestive Fluid, ana
logous to the Gastric Juice, may be readily prepared
from the mucous membrane of the stomach of ihe Calf,
in w liich various articles of food, as meat and eggs, will
be softened, changed, ami digested, just in the same mufi
ner ns they would be in the human stomach'
Kr Call on the Agent, and get a Descriptive Circular,
gratis, giving a large amount of Scientific Evidence
similar to the above, together with reports of REM All K
III.E CURES, from all parts of the United States.
As a Dyspepsia €m'er,
Dr. HOUGHTON'S I'KPSIM has produced the most
marrtlluus effects, in curing cases of Debility, Foun
dation, oYerrous Decline, and Dyspeptic Consumption.
It is impossible to give tlie details of the cases in the
limits of this advertisement; but authenticated certifi
cates have been given of more than TWO HUNDRED
REMARKABLE CUKES, in Philadelphia, New York
atid Boston, alone. These were nearly all desperate
cases, and the cures were not only rapid and wonderful,
but permanent.
It is a great NERVOUS ANTIDOTE, and particularly
useful for tendency to Billions disorder, Liver Complaint,
Fever and Ague, and ihe evil effects of Quinine, Mercury,
ami other Drugs upon the Digestive Organs, after a long
sickness. Also, for excess In eating, ami the too free
use of ardent spirits. It almost reconciles Health Willi
Intemperance.
Dr. HOUGHTON'S PFI*SI \ is sold by nearly al
the dealers ii. line Drugs and Popular Medicines, through
out the United Stales. It is prepared in Powder and in
Fluid form—and in prescription vials for the use of
physicians.
PRIVATE CIRC! LARS for the use of physicians,
may be obtained of Dr. Houghton or his Agents, de
scribing The whole process of preparation, and giving the
authorities upon which the claims of this new remedy
are based. As it is NOT A .SECRET REMEDY, no ob

Completely Cured in Three Hays,
Isy Dr. J. W. Cooper's Vegetable Compound
Fever and Anc Fills.
r piir.sr. PILLS are composed entirely of Vegetable
T Mibstaiices, and in ninty-nineca.-e - out of every hun
dred, w ill perform a perfect and Complete rare in three
days. No instance has ever been known, where more
than six days have been required to perforin a complete
rure, even in the very worst cases, and on ihe strongest
constitutions. \A e would earnestly say to all who are
atfiicted with this distressing disease, to get one box and
try them, and in all cases, two boxes are warranted to
eure, if taken according to the directions, or the money
returned.
These pills not only perform a perfect cure in three
days, but remove the bile and create a healthy iction of
the liver, ami consequently fortify lite system against a
future attack.
A LSO.
My Vegetable Aiiti-Dysj cpsia Billers.
This Medicine is a certain cure for Dyspepsia in its
very worst forms. Thousands of cases have been com
pletely cured by it within the last year, which have
been entirely despaired of by the regular family physi
cians. We do not recommend it to cure everything—we
recommend il to cure Dyspepsia, and the il.senses origi
nating from it, and that it w ill cure in almost every case,
and it is recommended for nothing else. In many in
stances, even lite worst of cases have been completely
cured in two and three months, but it depends somewhat
upon the constitution of the patient. We would say to
all who are afflicted with Dyspepsia, give this medicine
a fair trial, anil if it fails to do good, your money will be
returned.
ALSO,
My Vegetable Worm Powders.
This is the most wonderful Worm Destroyer ever
known, and at the saute time, so pleasant to take, that
almost every child will be fond of it, and many instances
have been known of children crying for mure after once
takiug it.
This medicine is in the form of a powder, the only
medicine ever used in that form, and it operates on a
principle entirely different from any oilier medicine ever
administered by any other physician. It is the only
medicine which has no Worm-seed Oil or Turpentine
combined with it, which is believed by all other physi
cians, to be the only two things which will destroy
worms, and these two things combined, together with
castor oil, are the active principles of till other worm
medicines, which every person who has ever tasted or
smelted, knows to be the most nauseous of all nauseous
medicines, and on account of which, there is generally
something added to destroy tiiis nauseous taste, and in
order to do this, it must be something stronger than Ihe
medicine itself, and therefore, it must necessarily destroy
some of iis medicinal properties. These powders are
simple and so harmless, that a child may eat a whole box
at once, and it will not be hurt, while at the same time,
the principle upon which it acts being different from any
thing else ever used, il will destroy all kinds of Worms
with a certainty never equaled. 11. will not i nly destroy
the seat worms, or Ascarides, and long, round worms,or
Teres, but is the most effectual medicine for the destruc
tion ofthe Tape Worm ever known. Ten doses have
brought as many as I'l VE Tape Worms front one person.
If your children have any symptoms of worms, try
these powders, and in nine cases out of ten, you will nev
er use any other. These are also warranted.
These medicines are all separate, and one for cash dis
ease, and each for only one disease. They are not re
comtnended, as many other medicines are, to cure some
fifteen or twenty diseases, and all of different natures,
hut they are each to cure hut one disease, and Hal they
w ill do in ninety -nine cases out of every hundred, and
where they have a fair trial and fail in all cases, tlie
money will be returned.

JOSIAII C. YOUNG, Dauphin, Dauphin county, Pa.,
in a letter to Dr. Jackson, of May 5,1551, said :
"For a long time 1 was aril ic ted with general debility
and intestinal weakness, costirmess, Sfc , for which I used
many different remedies, without change. At last lac
cideutally stumbled upon Hoofland's German Bitters,
| prepared by you. I took a few bottles according to di
! reclions, and was completely cured. 1 have not been so
: healthy for ten years as I have been since I took your
i litters, which was about one year ago. Some of my
neighbors are now using them, and deriving great ben
efit."
ANOTHER LETTER,
From Dr. .7. C. GILES, Newton Hamilton. Pa , said:
'•I have Ssed a half dozen of your German Hitlers my
i self, for Liver Complaint and diseases of a nervous chat*
I acter, resulting from the abuse of mercury. I was poi-
I soned and affected with spasms from the use of this lat
ter article, and your German Bitters w as the first article
from which 1 obtained relief, although I ha ve not yet
quite recovered. All who have used this medicine of
\ yours speak well ofit."
DYSPEPTICS AND SKEPTICS, READ.
In three-fourths ofthe cases of diseased Liver, Stoni
ach and Nerves, the effect of Dr. Hoofland's Celebrated
German Hitters, (prepared only by Dr. Jackson, at the
Medicine Store, liii) Arch street.) is as positive as in the
case of A. A. Kaufman, Esq. Head what he says!
LANCASTER, April 30, 18.10.
Hrspected Sir: I have been for a series of years attiict
ed with Dyspepsia, Inactivity of the Liver,and Nervous
j Debility. My mental powers have been so reduced as
1 to render lue quite unfit for the transaction of any kind
1 of business. After consulting many eminent physicians,
: and using their prescriptions, and after using the most
| popular remedies of the day, supposed to he applicable to
my case, I always failed to have permanent relief. A
friend, with much persuasion, induced me to try a bottle
: of your celebrated Bilters. I have used one bottle, and
I this day commenced the second. 1 can with cheerful
ness state that it has happily improved me. My npp.e
lite and spirits have astonishingly improved, and 1 begin
to feel as though 1 had grown (suddenly) ten years
1 younger, and really, I am almost prepared to say that 1
j now consider myself calculated for any business, while,
' ten days ago, 1 would have as soon undertaken to square
i a circle as to have attempted it.
Yours respectfully, A. A. KAUFMAN
| To Dr. C. M. Jackson,
120 Arch street, Philadelphia.
The Editor of "Scott's Weekly Paper," one of the
largest literary and family newspapers published in Phil;
adelphia, says:
j "Dr. Hoofland's German Hitters, manufactured by Dr.
Jackson, are now recommended by some of the most
prominent members of the faculty, as an article of nun h
j efficacy in cases of female week ness. As such is the
case, we would advise all mothers to obtain a bottle, and
j thus save themselves much sickness. Persons of debili
tated constitutions will find these bitter# advantageous
: to their health, as we knowHrom experience the salutary
effect ihey have upon weak systems."
That this medicine will cure Liver Complaint and Dys
pepsia, no one can doubt after using it as directed. It
i acts specifically upon the stomach and liver ; ii is prefer
; able to calomel in all bilious diseases- -the effect is imme
diate. They can he administered to I KMAI.E or INI A.NT
with safety and reliable benefit, at any time.
Beware of fonuterfells !
This medicine has attained that high character which
is necessary for all medicines to attain to induce cotiu*
j terl'eilers to put forth a spurious article, at the risk of the
i lives of those w ho are innocently deceived.
Look well to the Marks of the Genuine,
They have the written signature of C M.JACKSON
i upon the wrapper, and the name blown in the bottle,
without ichnh they are spurious.
