TIFICMI, DIGESTIVE
Fluid. ; or Gastric, Suicel
A GREAT DISPEPSIA CURER I
Prepared from Bennet, or the fourth Stommth
of the Ox, after directions of Baron Lie
big, the great' Physiological Chemist, by
J. S. Houghton. M. D, Nb. I I, 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.
rirHalf 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 or
that organ, when in a state of health, called l
the Gastric Juice. This fluid is the Great'
Sovent of the Food, the Purifying, Preserv- -
ing and Stimuating 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•
lion of the whoe 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.—Popsin is the chief
element, or great digesting principle of the
Gastric Juice. It is found in great abun
dance in the soid 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. 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 food." 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!—l3nron Liebig, in
his'elebrated work on Animal Chemistry . ,
says: -"An Artificial Digestive Fluid may
be readily prepared from the mucous mem
brane of the stomach of the Call, in which
various articles of food, as meat end 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 &
Co., New York, page 35, slates 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 Colletie of the Uni
versity of New York, in his "Text Book of
Chemistry," page 386, says, "it has beep
a question whether artificial digestion could
be performed—but it is now universally ad
mitted that it may be."
Professor Dunglison of Philadelphia, in
his great work ,n Human Physiology, de
votes more than fifty pages to an
.examitia
lion of this subject. His experiaents with
Dr. Beautnont, 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."
dsa 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
