keep up with the improvements of the times.
Upon this principle we have determined to
act. We will sell our Goods at such prices

dical Faculty of New York, who witnessed
the application upon a gentleman, who was
an inveterate stammerer, and had been
operated upon by other Physicians, without
the least benefit, and astonishing as it may
seem, Dr. iVyckofr cured him in 20 min

Erandreth's Pills,
FOR THE CURE OF
Consumption, Coughs, Colds, 4-c.,
TO THE PUBLIC!
THOSE who are suffering from remitting
or Intermitting Bilious Complaints, shoulp
rend the following, and be guided thereby :
Cause of Paire.—Pain is the consequence
of the exertion of the organ or part where it
is present to throw ofi morbid or corrupt hu
mors, for no pain can exist but from the pre
sence of those *matters which are of an ,un
healthy character. When we have pain
in the, head, in the bowels, or in any other
part of the body, it only proves the presence
of matters which the blood is trying to re
move, and it is this struggle which is the oc
casion of pain. To be bled, only removes
the an wish in ro Jirti tms the amount n
life is reduced, and the same may be said of
all lulling or soothing remedies. Not, so
with Brandreth's Pills ; they at once go to
the assistance of the blood in aiding it to
discharge bud humors, to conquer the Death
Principle. To relieve pain in this way
does not leave any bud eff; , cts, The Life
Principle is not reduced, nor are the teeth
destroyed ; 'but all the organs are cleansed
and their health insured.
11.1 - V-The above Pills are for sale by the
dozen or single box at the Register Office
in Allentown.

disease, distress and debility which ensue.
Pepsin and Rennet.—Pepsin is the chief
elhnent, or great digesting principle of the
Gastric Juice. It is found in great abun
dance in the solid parts of the human sm.
mach after death, and sometimes causes the
stomach to digest itself, or eat itself up. It
is also found in the stomach of animals. its
the ox, calf, &c. It is the material used by
farmers in making cheese, called Rennet,
the effi..ct of which has long been the spe
cial wonder of the dairy. The curdling of
rst-process-of-digestinilien
net possesses astonishing power. Theto
mach of a calf will curdle nearly one thou
sand times its , own weight of. milk. Baron '
Liebig states that, "One part of Pepsin
dissolved in sixty thousand - parts of water,
will digest meat and other food." Diseased
stomachs produce no good. Gastric Juice,
Rennet or Pepsin. To show that this want

following
Scientific Evidence!—Baron Liebig, in
his celebrated work on Anhnal Chemistry,
says: "An Artificial Digestive Fluid may
be readily prepared from the mucous mem
brane of the stomach of the Calf, in which
various articles of food, as meat and eggs,
will be softened, changed, and digested, just
in the same manner as they would be in the
human stomach."
Dr. Pereira, in his famous treatise on
"Food and Diet," published by Wilson &
Co„ New York, page 35, states the same
great fact, and describes the method of pre
paration. T a
here are few higher uthori- .
ties than Dr. Pereira
Dr. John W. Draper, Professor of Che
mistry in the Medical College of the Uni
versity of New York, in his "Text Book of
Chemistry," page asa, says, "it has been
a question whether artificial digestion could
be performed—but it is now universally ad
mitted that it may be."
Professor Dunglison of Philadelphia, iii
his great work on Human Physiology, de
votes more than fifty pages to an examina
tion of this subject. His experiments with
Dr. Beaumont, on the Gitstric Juice, ob. -
mined from the living humeri. stomach and
from animals are well-known. "In all ca
ses," "he says" "digestion °counted as per
