August 8 PEPSIN .411 r ✓IRTIFICI.I3I. DIGESTIVE or Gastric Snicei 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 J. S. Houghton. M. D., No. 11, North . Eighth Street, Philadelphia, Pa. This is a truly wonderful remedy for In digestion, Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Liver complaint, t:onstipation, and Debility curing - after Nature's own method, by Nature's own agent, the Gastric Juice. C3'Half 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 from the Inner coat of ihat_organ, when in a state of health, called: the Gastric Juice. This fluid is the Great . Sovent of the Food, the Purifying, Preserv ing and Stiinuating Agent of the storriacV , and intestines. Without it there will be no digestion no conversion of food into blood' t * and no nutrition of the body ; but rather a foul, torpid, painful, and destructive condi tion of the ‘vhoe digestive apparatus. A weak, haf 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 abun dance in the sold 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 mik is the first process of digestion. Ron 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 food." Diseased stomachs produce no good Gastric Juice, Rennet or Pepsin. To show that this want may be perfectly supplied, ive 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 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 stoinach." Dr. Pereira, in his famous treatise orb "Food and Diet," published by Wilson & Co., New York, page 85, 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 386, says, "it has been a question whether artificial digestion could be performed—but it is now universally ad- • milted that it may be." Professor Dunglison of Philadelphia, in his great work m flunnin 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 us per fectly in the artificial as in the natural di gestions." ../ls a Dllspepsia Curer.—Dr. Houghton's preparation of Pepsin has produced the most marvellous efkcts, curinff ° 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(10 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 ' 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, tendon- . cy to Insanity, Suicide, &c. Price one dollar per bottle. One bottle will often effect a lasting cure.
