    ANOTHER SCIENTIFIC WONDER
IP 141 IPS'2S3" 8
THE TRUE DIGESTIVE FLUID,
OR
So
A Great Dyspepsia curer, Prepared from
RENNET, or the fourth Stomach of the Ox,
after direction* of Baron Liobjg, the great
Physiological Chemist, by J. S. Houghton,
M. D., No 11, North Eighth Street, Phiia
dclphia. Pa.
This is a truly wonderful remedy for Indi
gestion, Dyspepsia, Jaudiro, Liver Com
plaint, Constipation, and Debility, Curing
after Nature's own method, by Nature's own
agent, the Gastric Juice.
BP" Half a spoonful of this Fluid, infused
in water, will digest or dissolve, Five Pounds
I/ Roast Beef in about two hours, out of the
stomach.
DIfIESTKM,
Digestion is Chiefly performed in the
stomach by the aid of a fluid which freely
exudes from the inner coat of that organ,
when in a state ol httetlth, called the Gastric
Juioe. This fluid is the Great solvent of the
Food, the Purifying, Preserving, and Stimula
ig Agent of the stomach and intonstines.
Without it there will be no digestion,—no
•conversion of food into blood, and no nu-1
trition of tbe body; but rather a foul, torpid,
painful, and destructive condition of the
whole digestive apparatus. A weak, half
dead, or injured stomach produces no good
Gastric Juice, and hence the disease, dis
tress and debility which ensue.
PEPSIN ARD 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 tho human stom
ach after do ith, and sometimes causes the
stomach to digest itself, or cat i'self up. It
. is also found in the stomach of animals, as
the ox, calf, &c. It is the material used by
farmers in makirg cheese, called Rennet,
the effect of which has long boon the spe
cial wonder of the dairy. The curdliug of
milk is tho first process of digestion. Ren
net poetesses astonishi-g power. The stom
ach of a calf will curdle nearly 0r.9 thou
sand times iis own weight of milk. Baron
I.iebip states that, 'One part of Pepsin dis
solved in sixty thousand parts of water, will
digest meat and other food." Diseased
stomschs produce no good Gastric Juice
Rennet or Pepsin. To show that this want
may be perfectly supplied, we quote the
following
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE!
BARON LICBIG, in Lis celebrated work on
Animal Chemistry, says: "An Artificial Di
gesiivc Fluid analogous to the Gastric Juice,
may be readily prepared from tho nucous
membrane of the stomach of tho Call, in
which various articles of food, as meat and
egcsj will be softened, changed, and diges
t -d, just in the same manner as tliey would
to in the human stomach."
Dr. Pereira in his famous treatise on
"Food and Diet," published by Fowlers &
Wells, New York, page 35. stales the same
great fact, and describee the method of prep
aration. There are few higher authorities
than Dr. Pereira.
Dr Combe, in ,liis valuable writings on
rtie "Physiology of Digestion," observes
that "a diminution of the due quantity of
the Gastric Juice is a prominent and alt pro
vailing cause of Dyspepsiu;" and he states
that "a distinguished professor of medicine
in London, who was severely afflicted with
thisoomplaint, finding every thing else to
Jail, hud recourse to the Gastric Juice, ob
tained from the stomach of living animals,
which proved completely successful.".
Dr. Graham, author of the famous works i
on "Vegetable Diet," says: "it is a remar
kable fact in physiology, that the stomachs
of animals, macerated in water, impart to
the fluid the property of dissolving various
articles of food, auif of effecting a kind of
artificial digestion of them in no wise dif
ferent from tho natural digestive process."
Dr. Simon's great work, the "Chemistry
of Man," (Lea & Blaudiard, Phila., 184tj ;
pp. 321-2): "The discovery of PEPSIN
fo ms a new era in the chemical history of
Digestion. From recent experiments we'
know that food is dissolved as rapidly in an
artificial digestive fluid, prepared from Pep
sin, as it is IU the natural Gastric Juice it
self."
.Professor Dunglison of the Jefferson Col
lege, Philadelphia, in[his great work on Hu
man Physiology, devotes more than fifty
pages to an examination of this subject,
ilia experiments with Di Beaumont, on the
Gastric Juice, obtained from tbo living hu
man stomach and from animals are well
known. "In all cases," ho says, "digestion
occurred as perfectly in tbo artificial as the
natural digestions."
As a DYSPEPSIA CI'RER, Dr Houghton's
preparation of Pepsin has produced the
most marvellous effects, curing cases of De
bility, Emaciation, Nervous Decline, and
dispeplic Consumption, supposed to be on
the very verge ol the grave. It is imposs
blo to give the details of cases in the limit
of this advertisement —but authenticate
certificates have been of mote than two hun
dred 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 par
ticularly useful for tendency to billious dis
order, Liver Complaint, Fever and A ate, or
badly treated Fever and Ague, and the evil
effects of Quinine, Mercury, and other drugs
upon the Digestive organs, after a long sick
ness. Also, for excess in eating, and the
too free use of ardent spirits. It almost rec
onciles Health with Intemperance.
OLD STOMACH COMPLAINTS. —Thore 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
Inslanl Relief I A single dose removes all
the unpleasaut 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 particularly excellent iu cases of Nausea
Vomiting, Cramps, Soreness of the pit of
the Stomach, distress after eating, low. cold
state of the Blood, Heavir ess, _ Lo\vpess of
Spirits, Despondency, Emanciation, Weak
ess, tendency to Insanity, Suicide, &c.

PANACEA.
The afflicted are invited to call and see Mi
Isaac Brooke, Jr., at the corner of Third and ,
Wilcox streets, and Mies Christiana Sands,
Beach street below Spruce street,) nthoSchuvl
kill. These two persons have been snatched
from the very jaws of the destroyer through 'he
agency of that most potent of all medicines,
DJi CULLERS INDIAN VEGETABLE
PANACEA.
Dr Cullen's Panacea is the only cirtain cure
for Scrofula or King's Evil, Tetter, Erysipelas,
Old Sores and Ulcers, Mercurial Diseases, and all
olhei afleslions, cutaneous or otherwise, arising
from impurities of the blood.
In the extraordinary cure of Mr. Brooks, peo
ple who visit him, hold up their hands in as
tonishment, that AST medicine could have ar
rested ins disease—then go away resolved to re
commend i)r Cullen's Indian Vegetable Pana
cea to every one they hear of who has need of a
purifying medicine.
Bo with Christiana Bands—her cure of Scrof
ulous sore throat pras quite as extraordinary as
Mr. Brooks', when we reflect that from the dis
ease her tea or coflee would frequently pass out
of her ears, when attempting to drink, [See
her certificate.]
The people are beginning to understand, too,
that the various Syrups of cSarroparilla are little
better than molasses, and that it is madness to
throw sway money on articles which, under the
most favorable circumstances, do not produce
any impression on the system until several gul
ons have been swallowed. One bottle of Dr.
CUIICII'B Panacea seldom fails to produce con
viction in the minds of patients that a radical
cure is certain.*
Thus hope, [ro necessary, an ally to medi
cine.] springs up at the outset, and the patieut
is cured before any other preparation could have
mude the slightest impression upon thadiscase !
In fact, the twelve ounce bottles of Di. Cul
len's Panacea, compared with the pint and quart
hottles of other purifiers, are valuable about in
the proportion of gold to copper. Those who
wonle piefer a penny to a half eagle, on account
of its size, would make a poor selection to say
the least.
Sarsaparilla a good purifier! Dr. Cullen's
Panacea contains its extract in its most concen
trated form. Added to this nte other extracts,
more active and powerful, and which cfi'cct in
combination will) the tSarsjparilla, what the Ist
ter article, or combined with tho niost powerftt
poisons, cannot aloae accomplish.
It has cured whore everything else had failed
and this in a multitude of cases—not in Europe
or in the moon, (where so many great cures
have been porfuriued,) but in Philadelphia and
other pal'ta of the union. And be it distinctly
understood that we do not obtain our extracts by
"holing 400 gallons down to one," it being
known to every Oruggist's apprentice that boiling
destroys tho essential virtues of medicinal plants
and roots.

WORSDELI.'S PILLS. —This excellont family
medicine is daily winning now t-inmphs
over disease, ana consequently in the high
road to public favor. In the removal of tne
every day ills that flesh is heir to, we know
of no better compound. We hoard the oth
er day of a desperate case of scrofulous e
ruptions of the head and face being enirely
cured by them.
Du Solle of the "Timet," tayt:
fy The groat popularity of Worsdell's
Vegetable Pills, is attributed to the just iticr
it which they really possess. They have
been quietly gaining tlie fame they now
have, by the force of their own virtuos.
The means usually employed to give eclat
to new remedies have not been adopted by
the proprietors. They have been content to
let their medicine speak foi itself. It is now
doing it in every section of the country.
Tltoy are for sale by most of the Store
Keepers throughout the Country,and in quan
tities at reasonable rates, at the Laboratory

CAN IE EFF EOT A LLT CUBES BY
DR. IJOOFLAND'S
CELEBRATED BITTERS,
7BEPARED BY
DR. C. M. JACKSON,
AT THE
GERMAN MEDICINE STORE,
No. 120 Arch Street, Philadelphia.
Their power over the above diseases is
not excelled, if equalled, by any other rep
aration in the United States, as the euros
attest, in many cases after skilful physicians
had failed.
These Bitters are worthy the attention of
invalids. Possessing great virtues in the
rectification of diseases of the Liver and 1 la
ser glands, exercising the most searching
powers in weakness and affections of the di
gestive organs, they are, withal, safe, cer
tain and pleasant.
Read and be Convinced.
The Hon. Charles D. llineline, Editor of
the "Camden Democrat,"the bost paper in
West Jersey, says, July 21: —
"Hooflami's German Bittehs."—"We
have seen many flattering notices of this
medicine, and the source from which they
came, induced us to make inquiry respect
ing its merits. Prorr. inquiry we were pet
suaded to use it, ami must say we found
it specific in its action upon diseases of the
liver and digestive organs, and tho powerful
influence it exerts upon nervous prostration
is really surprising. It calms and strogthens
the nerves, bringing them into a state of re
pose, making sleep retreshing.
£From the "Boston Bee."]
Tho editor said, Dee. 22d—
'■Dr. lloofland's Celebrated German Bitten
for tho euro of Liver Complaint, Jaundice,
Dyspcysia, Chronic or Nervous Debility, is
deservedlv one of the most popular medi
cines of the day. These Hitlers havo been
used by thousands, and a friend at our elbow
says he has himself received an effectual
and permanent cure of Liver Complaint
from the use of this remedy. We are con
vinced that, in the use of these Bitters, the
patient constantly gains strength ntid vigor—
a fact worthy of great consideration, fhey
are pleasant in taste and smell, and can lie
used by persons with the most delicate stom
achs with safety, under any circumstances.
We arc speaking from experience and to tho
atllictcd we advise their use."
Judge M M. Nosh, a gentleman with
great scientific ami and litterary attainments,
said in his "A'ctc York Weekly Messenger,"
January 6, 1850.
"Dr Hoofland's German JSrflm.—-Here is
a preparation which the loading presses in
the Lnioti appear to bo unanimous in re
commending. and the rtrasou is obvious. It
is mado nfter a presc.ipuon furnibhed by
one o: the most eel'obtated physicians of
modern times, the fata Dr Christopher Wil
helni Hoofland, V roiessor to the Univeisity
of Jena. Privafe Physician to the King of
Prussia, and tine of the greatost medical wri
ters Germany has ever produced. Ho was
emphatically the enemy of humbug, and
the.efor'.: a, medicine of which he was the
inveu'.or and endorser may be confidently re
lied or,. He specially recommended it in
Live} Complaint, Dyspepsia, Debility, Ver
figj, Acidity of the Stomach, Constipation.
Mid all complaints arising from a disordered
condition of the stomach, the liver and the
intestines. Nine Philadelphia papers express
their conviction of its excellence, and sev
eral ot the editors speak of its effects from
their own individual experience. Under
those circumstances, we (eel warranted, not
only in calling the attention of our readers
to the present proprietor's (Dr. C. M. Jack
son's) preparation, but in recommending the
article to all afflicted."
MOKE EVIDENCE.
The "Philadelphia Saturday Gazette," the i
be6t family newspapci published in the l T ni- I
ted Slates, the editor say of
DR. HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS.
"It is seldom that we recommond what
are termed Patent Medicines to the confi
dence and patronage of our readers: and,
therefore, when wo recommend Dr. Hoot
land's German Bitters, we wish it to be (lis
tinctly understood that wo are not speakui"
of the nostrums of the day, that are noised
about for a brief period and then forgotten
after they have done their guilty race of rnis
cliif, but of a medicine long established,
universally prizod, and whioh has met the
hearty approval ol the Faculty itself."
Evidence upoq evidence has been re
ceived (like the foregoing) from all sections
ol the Union, the last three years, anil the
strongest testimony in its favor, is, that there is
morn of it used in the practice of the * regu
lor Physicians of Philadelphia than all other
nostrums combined, a fact that can casily
be established, and fully proving that a sci
entific preparation will meet with their qui
et approval when presented even in this
form.
That this medioino will euro Liver Com
plaint and Dyspepsia, no one can doubt, al
ter using it as diioctod. It acts specifically
upon the stomach and liver—it is prolerable
to calcmel in aliiUious diseases —the effect is
immediate. Tbey can he administered to
femalc or infant with safety and reliable
benefit, at anytime.
BEWARE OK COUNTERFEITS. !
Thin medicine has attained that high char
acter which is necessary for all medicines to
attain to induce counterfeiters to put torth a
spurious article at the risk of the lives of
those who are innocently deceived.
