PEPSIN ! ~ 1 1?7'll'ICI.11, DIGESTIVE br Gastric S.u.icel• 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. Houghton. M. D., No. 11, North Eighth Street, Philadelphia, Pa. This is a truly wonderful remedy for In= digestion, Dyspepsia, Jaundice. Liver . Complaint, Jan•stipation, and Debility curing after Nature's own method, by Nature's own agent, the Gastric Juice FHnlf a teaspoonful of this Fluid, infused n waterw ill-d Ye 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 cont-fit that organ, when in a state of health, callrid the. Gastric Juice. This fluid is the Great- Sol vent of the Food, the Purifying, Preserv-- ing and Stimulating, Agent of the stomach and intestines. Without it there will be no di!restion -- no conversion offood into blood, and no nutrition of the body ; but rather a fool, torpid, painful, and destructive condi tiun 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 Juice. It is found in great ftbun•T 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 animal?, as the ox, calf, &c. It is the materiP I used by m farers in making cheese., Called Renner, the elfect of which long been the spe cial wonder of the dairy. The curdling of milk is the first process of digestion. Ren net poss:•sses astonishing, power. The sto mach of a calf will curdle nearly one thou sand times its ,‘%,n- weight Alf milk: Baron 1,11,13 t states that, "One part of Pepsin '.. it ssolved in sixty thousand parts of water, will digest meat and other f00d.." Diseased stomachs produce no good Gastric Juice, Renntit or Pepsin. To show that this want may be perfectly supplied, we ;pitite the hollowing Sriciiiific LW/kneel-13a mon Idebig, in his celebrated work on Animal Chemistry, says: -An Artificial Digestion Fluid may he readily prepared from the 11111CMIS ow l !, brane of the stomach of the Celt, in which carious articles oh food, as meat and eggs, will be softened, changed, and digested, just in the saint manner as they would be in the hu stomach." 1)r. Pereira, in his famous treatise on -Food and I list ," published by Wilson & , Nett , York, page :35, states the sumo rent Ittct, and describes the method of pre aration. There aro few b; 8 4,,., a „0,,-„; ties than 1)r. Pereira inistry in the ith , T - Cal"(_•Aiirtat.ls'lP,r,Pi r , ( 2 he " versity of New York, in his "Text Boolt - t 'Chemistry," page :356, says, "it has been a question whether artificial digestion could lie performed—but it is now universally ad !flitted that it may be." Professor Dunglison of Philadelphia, in his great work AI /Inman Physiology, de votes or than fifty pages to an examina tion of this sul.ject. His experiments with Pr. Pa•aumont, on the• Gastric Juice, ob tained Coon the living human stomach and from animals are well known. "In all ca ses," -he says" "digestion occurred as per fectly in the artificial as in the natural di gestions." .1s a Dyspepsia Curer.—Dr. Houghton's preparation of Pepsin has produced the most marvellous 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 in the limits of this advertisement—but authenticated certificates have been given of more than. 2:)0 Remarkable Cures, in Philadelphia, New York, and Boston alone. These were nearly all desperate cases, and the cures were not only rapid and wonderful, but per manent. • It is a great Nervous Antidote, and from the astonishingly small quantity necessary to produce healthy digestion, is believed to act upon Eleeoo-Magnetic Prineiplcs! 7 —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 CA single dose removes all the unpleasant symptoms, and it only needs to be repeated, for a short time, to make theso good effects permanent, purity of blood and vigor of body, follow at once. It is particu larly excellent in cases of Nausea, Vomiting ? , Cramps; Soreness of the pit of the Stomach,. distress after eating, low, cold, state of then Blood, Heaviness, Lowness of Spirits, Des. pondency, Emaciation, Weakness, tendert. cy to Insanity; Suicide, &c.
