TIIE TRUE DIGESTIVE FLUID,
OR
A Great Dyspepsia curer, Prepared from
RENNET, or the fourth Stomach of the Ox,
after direction* of Baron Lie big, the great
Physiological Chemist, by J. S. Houghton,
M. D., No. 11, North Eighth Street, phila
| delphia, Pa. , . _
This is a truly wonderful remedy for Indi
gestion, Dyspepsia, Jaudice, Liver Com
plaint, Constipation, and Debility, Curing
after Nature's own method, by Nature's own
agent, the Gastric Juice.
E7* Half a spoonlul 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 performed in the
stomach by tho aid of a fluid which freely
exudes from the inner coat of that organ,
when in a state ol health, called the Gastric
Juice. This fluid is the Great solvent of the
Food, the Purifying, Preserving, and Stimula
ting Agent of the stomach and intenstineß.
Without it there will be no digestion,—no
conversion of food into blood, and no nu
trition bf the body; but rather a foul, torpid,
painful, and destructive condition of the
whole digestive apparatus. A wealt, half
dead, or injured stomach produces 110 good
Gastric Juice, and hence the disease, dis
tress and debility which ensue.
Pepsin and KenNTt.—- Pepsin is (he chief
element, or great Digesting Principle ot the
Gastric Juice. It is found 'a great abun
dance 111 the solid parts of tho hi'mar. stom
ach after deilh, and sometimes causes the
stomach to digest itself, or eat i'seii up. It
is also found in the stomach of animals, s 5
the ox, call', &c. It is the material used Ly
farmers in making cheese, called Rennet,
the effect of which has long been the spe
cial wonder of the dairy. The curdling of
rnilk is the first process of digestion. Ren- |
net possesses astotiishi' g power. The stom- 1
ach of a calf will curdle nearly one thou- !
sand liinus its own weight ol'milk. Baron
Liebig states that, 'One part of Pepsin dis
solved in sixty thousand parts of water, will
digest meal and other food." Diseased
stomachs produce no good Gastric Joice
Rennet or Pepsin. To show that this want
may be perfectly supplied, we quo'.e the
following
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE!
BARON LIEBIG, in Lis celebrated work on
Animal Chemistry, says: "An Artificial Di
gestive Fluid analogous to the Gastric Juice, j
may be readily prepared from the nucoiis
membrane of the stomach of the Call, in |
which various articles of food, as meal and
eggsj will be softened, changed, and diges
l"d, just in the same mannes-ae-they would
be in the human stomach,"
Dr. Pereira, in his famous treatise on
"Food and Diet," published by Fowlers &
Wells, Now York, page 35. states the same
great fact, and describes the method of prep
aration. There are few higher authorities
than Dr. Pereira.
Dr Combe, in his valuable writings on
the "Physiology of Digestion," observes
that "a diminution of the due quantity of
the Gastric Juice is a prominent and all pre
vailing cause of Dyspepsia;" and he states i
that "a distinguished orofessor of medicine
in London, who was severely afflicted with ,
this complaint finding cvijry thing else to I
fail, had recourse to the Gastric Juice, ob- I
tained from the stomach of living animals, j
which proved completely successful."
Dr. Graham, author ot the famous works :
ou "Vegetable Diet," says : "it is a fernar- j
kablu fact in physiology, that (lid stomachs
of animals, macerated in water, itripart to |
the Huid the properly of dissolving various i
articles of food, and of effecting a kind of !
artificial digestion of them in no wise dif- j
ferent from the natural digestive process." j
Dr. Simon's great work, the "Chemistry
of Man," (Lea & Blanchnrd, Phila., 1846, j
pp. 321-2): "The discovery of PEPSIN j
to ms a new era in ihe chemical history of!
Di gestion. From recent experiments we ]
know that food is dissolved as rapidly in an j
artificial digestive fluid, prepared from Pep- j
sin, as it is in the natural Gastric Juice it
self."
Professor Dnnglisoii of the Jefferson Col- j
lege, Philadelphia, in his great work oil Hit- j
man Physiology, devotes more than fifty I
pages to an examination of this subject. J
His experiments with Dr Beaumont, ou the I
Gastric Juice, obtained from the living hi.- !
man stomach and from aatisals are well 1
known. "In all cases,'' ho "digestion 1
occurred as perfectly in the artificial as the :
natural digestions."
As a DYSPEPSIA CUREIt, Dr Houghton's l
preparation of Pepsin has produced the '
m ost marvellous effects, curing cases of De- j
bility, Emaciation. Nervous Decline, and j
| e peptic Consumption, to be on . |
very verge of the grave. It is. itnpossi j
to give the details of cases in te 1 limits j
of this advertisement—but authenticated
certificates have been of more than two hun- ■
dred Remarkable Cures , in Philadelphia, New* |
York, and Boston alone. These were !
nearly all desperate cases, and the cures ;
wore not only rapid and wonderful, but per- '
mnnent.
It is a great Nervous Antidote, and par-I
ticuluriy useful for tendency to billions dis- j
order, Liver Complaint, Fever and Ague, or j
badly treated Fever and Anue, and the evil j
effects of (Joiuiiie k Mercury, and other drugs j
upon the D gestive organs, after a long sick- :
tiess. Also, for excess in eating, and the
too freo use of ardent spirits. It almost rec- j
onciles Health with Intemperance.
OI.N HTCMAI U COMPLAINTS.— 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 j
Instant Relief! A single dose removes all
tne unpleasant symptoms, and it only needs \
to be repeated, for a short time, to make j
these good effects permanent. Purity o '
Blood and Vigor of Body, follow at once. I j
is particularly excellent in cases of Nausea :
Vomiting, Cramps, Soreness of the pit o
the Stomach, distress after eating, low. cold
state of the Blood, Heaviness, Lowi ess
Spiri Is, Despondency, Emanciation, We

PAITACEA.
The Afflicted nre invited to call nnd aeo Mr
lanac Brooks, Jr., at the corner of Third and
Wilcox streets, and Miaa Christiana bands,
freach strfVl below Spruce street, on the Schujrl
kril. These two persons have been snatched
from the very jaws of the destroyer, throogh the
agency of tli.it most potent of all medicines,
I>R CULLENS INUIAN VEGETABLE
PANACEA.
Dr Cullen's Panacea is the onljr cartain cure
for Scroftffa or King's Evil, Tetter, Eryvipehs.
O.'d bores and Ulcers, Mercurial Diseases, and all
other nifestions, cutaneous or otherwise, arising
from impurities of the blood.
In the extraordinary -cure of Mr. Br. k., peo
ple who visit him, Jiold tip their hands in as
tonishment, that AVY medicine could havo ar
rested HIS disease—then go away resolved to re
commend i)r Calico's Indian Vegetable Pana
cea to every one they hear of who has need of a
purifying medicine.
bo with Christiana binds—her coir of Scrof- j
uloua sore throat was quite as extraordinary as j
Mr. Brooks', when wo reflect that from tbl dis
ease her tea or coffee would fluently puss cut I
of her ears, when attempting to drink, [bee j
her certificate.]
The people are beginning to understand, too,
that the various tiyrups of banspnrilla are little
tietter than molasses, and that it is madness to
throw away money on articles which, under the ,
most favoroble circumstances, do not produce
any impression on the system until several gal
ons have been swallowed. One bottle of Dr. 1
Cullen's Panncca seldom fails to produce con
viction in the minds of patients thai a radical
cure is certain.
Thus hope, [ o necessary, an any to medi
cine ] springs up at rhe outset, and IlK> patient
la cured lief >re any other preparation could have
mude the slightest in>l !
In fact, the twelve Dr. Cul
len's Panacea, compared with the pint and quart
I holticH of other purifiers, are valuable about in
I the proportion of gold to copper. Those who
wonlu prefer u penny to a half ingle, <>n ic.'ounl
of its size, would make a poor selection to say
the least.
bcrsspar'.lN a good purifier! Dr. Cullen's
Panacea contains its oxtracl in its most crmttn
tratfd form. Added to this nre other extracts,
more active and powerful, and which effect in
combination with the baroaparilla, what the lit
ter article, or combined with the most powerful
poisons, cannot alone accomplish.
It has cured where ever} thing else had failed
and this in a multitude of casts—not in Europe
or in the moon, (where so many great cures
i have been performed,) but in Philadelphia and
| oiher parts of the union. And be it distinctly
unJ-'stood that wo do not obtain our extracts by
