A GREAT DISPEPSIA CURER!
Prepared from Rennet, or the fourthStomech
bf the Ox, after directions of Baron Lee
big, the great Physiological Chemist, by
J. S. Boa ghlbh. M. D., No. 11, North
Eighth Street, Philadelphia, Pa.
This is a truly wonderful remedy for In
digestion, Dyapepsia. Jaundice, Liver
,Complaint, Constipation, and Debi lit
curing after Nature's own Meth.od, by
Nature's twin agent, the Gastric bra:
!"Half a teaipoimful of this Fluid, inf Used
• in water, will digest or dissolve,
Pounds of Roast Beef in about two hours,
out of the stomach. •
Digestion. Digestion is chiefly per:
formed in the stomach by the aid of a fluid . .
which freely exudes from the inner coal Bt,
that organ, when in a state of health, called'
the Gastric Juice. This fluid is the Grear
Solvent of the Food, the Purifying, Preserv.,: -
ing and Stimulating Agent of the stoMSCP
and intestines. Without it there will be ny'
digestion no conversion of food into blood,
and no nutrition of the body ; but rather
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 Ono
Gastric Juke. It is found in great abun
dance in the solid parts 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
Liebig states that, "One part of Pepsin
dissolved in sixty thousand parts of water,
will digest meat and other rood." Diseased
stomachs produce no good Gastric Juice,
Rennet or Pepsin. To show that this want
may be perfectly supplied, we quote the
following •
Scientific 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 Cali, 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 &
