ENOLISII AND GERMAN JOB PRINTING, Neut.ly executed' at the "Register Office." Vivxick, or G astric, 3 thee. I.` Prepared from Rennet, or the fourth Stomach of the Ox, after directions of Baron Lie big, the great PhysiologictilChertilk; by .1. S. Honghtm. M. D., No. 11, North Eighth Street, Philadelphia, Pa. This is a truly Wonderful remedy for In digestion, Dylpepsia, Jaundice, Liver Complaint, Constipation, and Debility curing after Nature's own method, by Nature's own agent, the Gastric! Juice. ri'Llalf a teaspoonful of this Fluid, infused in water, will digest or dissolve, Five 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 froth the inner coat of that organ, when in a state of health, called the Ga stric Juice. This fluid is the Great Solvent of the Food, the Purifying, Preserv ing and Stimulating Agent of the stomach and intestines. Without it there will be no $1,28890 94 digestion -- no conversion of food into bli3Orl, 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 uml Rennet. --Pepsin is the chief element, or great digesting principle of the Gastric Juice. It is found in great abun dance in the solid parts of the human sto mach alter 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 fanners in making. cheese,-called Rennet, the efrect of which has long bceti the spe cial wonder of the dairy. The curdling of milk is the first process of digestion. Ben net possesses astonishing power. The sto mach of a calf will curdle nearly one thou sand times _its own weight of milk.- Baron , Liehig• states that, "One part of Pepsins dissolved in sixty thousand parts of water, will di g est 'neat and other rood." fiseased stomachs produce no good Gastric juice, Bennet or Pepsin: To show t iat t .16 want may he perfectly supplied, we Ttote the folloWing , Nrientific Erielrneel—P,,ron I,it•big, in his celebrated work on Animal Uhenos: ry, says: "An Artificial Digestive. Fluid iffity be readily prepared from the mar us mem brane of the stomach of the Call, in which various articles of food, as meat and I`,f4s, OM will be softened, changed, and just in the same manner as they would be in the human stoinach." Ti-:3m Dr. Pereira, in his famous treatise ors "Food and Diet," published by Wilson & col, New York, page :35, states the sante great fact, and describes the method of pre paration. There are few higher authori ties than Dr. Pereira Dr. John IV. Draper, Professor of Che mistry in the Medical College of the Uni versity of New York, in his "Text Book of Chemistry," page 356, says, "it has been a question whether artificial digestion could be performed—but it is now universally ad mitted that it may be." Professor Durirdison of Philadelphia, in his great work in flumnn Physiology, de votes more than fifty. pages to an examina tion of this subject. His experiments with Dr. Beaumont, on the Gastric Juice, ob tained from 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." :Is 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 200, 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 Eleelro-illagnelie 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 removes all the unpleasant symptoms, and it only needs to be repeated, for a short time, to make these 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 the Blood, Heaviness, Lowness of Spirits, Des pondency, Emaciation, Weakness, tenden-• Cy to Insanity, Suicide, &c: Price one dollar per bottle. , One bottle will often effect a lasting cure.
