A GREAT DISPEPSIA CURER ! '
Prepared from Rennet,or the fourth Stomach
of the Ox, after directions of Baron Lie ,
big, the great Physiological Chemist, by -
.1. S. Hough/on, M. b., No. 11, North
Eighth Street, Philadelphia, Pa. .
This is a truly wonderful remedy for In
digestion, Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Liver
Complaint, Constipation, and Debility,
' curing after Nature's own method, by
Nature's own agent, the Gastric: Juice.
rirtialf a teaspoonful of this Fluid, infused
in water, wilt — digest or .05 - fintreFivsr
Pounds of Roast Beef in about two hours;
out of the stomach.
Pigestion.--Digestion is chiefly per.'
formed in the stomach by the aid of a fluid
which freely exudes front the toner. coat of
that organ, when in a state of health, called
the Gastric Juice. 'This fluid is the Great
Solvent of the Food, the Purifying, Preaerv ,
ing and Stimulating Agent of the stomach
and intestines. Without it there will be no .
digestion no conversion of food into blood;
and no nutrition of the body ; but rather a
foul, torpid, painful, and destructive condi ,
tion of the whole digestive apparatus. A
weak, half dead, or injured stomach produ
ces no good Gastric Juice, and hence the
disease, distress and debility which ensue.
Pepsin and Rennet„--Pepsin is the chief
element, or great digesting principle of the
Gastric Juke. It is found in great abort ,
.dance in the solid patts of the human sto
mach after death, and sometimes causes the
stomach to digest itself. or eat itself ,up. It
is also found in the stomach of animals, as
the ox, calf,.&c. It is the material used by
farmers in making cheese, called Rennet,
the effect of which has long been the spe
cial wonder of the dairy. The curdling of
milk is the first process of digestion. Ren
net possesses astonishing power. The sto
mach of a calf will curdle nearly one thou
sand times its own weight of milk. Baron
Ltebig states_ t.hat, "One Tart. of Pepsin
dissolved in sixty thousand parts of water,
will digest meat and other rood." Diseased
stomachs produce no good Gastric uice,
Rennet or Pepsin. To show that this want
may be perfectly supplied, we quote the
following-
Scient ifie Evidence!—Baron Liebig, in
his celebrated work on Animal 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 &
C 0.,. New York, page 35 . , states the same
great fact, and describes the method of pre
paration. There are few, higher authori
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 :ISO, says, "it has been
a question whether artificial digestion could
be performed—but it is now universally
'ad
mitted that it mily be."
Professor trunalison of Philadelphia, in
his, great work on Human Physiology,-de
votes more than fifty pages to an examina
tion of this subject. El is . experiments with
Dr. Beaumont, on the Gastric Juice, ob
tained from the living human stomach and
from animals are well known. "In altlit
sesi" "he says" "digestion occurred as per
fectly in•the artificial as in the natural di
gestions."
.11s a Dyspepsia Curer.—Dr. Houghton's
preparation of Pepsin has produced the
most morvellotis effects., curing cases of De
bility, Emaciation, Nervous Decline, and
Dyspeptic Consumption, supposed to be on
the very verge of the grave. .It is impossi
ble to give the details of. cases itt the limits
of this advertisement—but authenticated
certificates have been given of more than
200 Remarkable . Cures, in, Philadelphia,
New York, and Boston alene. These were
nearly • all desperate cases, and the cures
were not only rapid and wonderful, but per-
tnanent.
It is a great Nervous Antidote, and from
the astonishingly small quantity necessary
to produce healthy digestion, is believed to
act upon,
Eleclro-31agnelic Principles!—There is
no form of Old Stomach Complaints which
it does not seem to reach and remove at once.
No matter how bad they may be, it gives
instant relief ! A single dose retnoves all the
