ANOTHER SCIENTIFIC WONDER
a> is IP s n sy 8
THE TRUE DIGESTIVE FLUID,
OR
72 £ S2 a
A Great Dyspepsia curer, Preparer! from
RF.NNET, or the fourth Stomach of the Ox,
after directions of Barmi Liebig, the great
Physiological Chemist, by J. S. Houghton,
M. D., No. 11, North Eighth Street, l'hila
delphia, Pa.
This is a truly wonderful remedy for Indi
geslion, Dyspepsia, Jaudioe, Liver Com
plaint, Constipation,-and Debility, Curing
after Nature's own method, by Nature's own
agent, the Gastric Juice.
PS" Half a spoonful 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 the aid of a fluid which freely
exudes from the inner coat of that organ,
when in a state ot 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 intenslines.
Without it there will be no digestion,—no
conversion of food into blood, and no nu
trition of the body; but rather a foul, torpid,
painful, and destructive condition of the
whole digestive apparatus. A weak, half
dead, or injured stomach produces 110 good
Gastric Juice, and hence the disease, dis
ircssatid debility which ensue.
PEPSIN AND RENNET. —Pepsin is the chief
element, or groat Digesting Principle of the
Gastric Juice. It is found in great abun
dance 111 the solid parts of the human stom
ach after de ilh, and sometimes causes the
stomach to digest itself, or eat itself up. It
is also found in the stomach of animals, as
lhe ox, calf, &c. It is the material used by
farmers in makirg cheese, called Rennet,
the effect of which has long been the spe
cial wonder of the dairy. The curdliug of
milk is the first process of digestion. Ren
net possesses astonishing power. The stom
ach of a calf will curdle nearly one thou
sand times its own weight of milk. Baron
Liebig states that, 'One part of Pepsin dis
solved 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 perlectly supplied, we quota the
following
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE!
BARON LIEWG, in Lis celebrated work on
Animal Chemistry, says : "An Artificial Di
gestive Fluid analagou" to the Gastric Juice,
may be readily prepared from the micous
membrane of the stomach of the Call, in
which various articles of food, aB meat and
eggs" will be softened, changed, and diges
ted, Just in the same manner as they would
be in lhe human stomach."
Dr. Pereira, in his famous treatise on
"Food and Diet," published by Fowlers A
Wells, New 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
that "a distinguished professor of medicine
in London, who was severely afflicted with
this complaint, finding every thine "I'se to
fail, had recourse to the Oasiric Juice, ob
tained from the stomach of living animals
which proved completely succ.isslul." '
Dr- Grabf-ii, author of the famous works
"'v ege'.gbie Diet," says: "it is a remar
kable tact in physiology, that the stomachs
of animals, macerated in water, impart to
the fluid the properly of dissolving various
articles of food, and of effecting a kind of
artificial digestion of them in no wise dif
ferent from the natural digestive process."
Dr. Simon's great work, the "Chemistry
of Man," (Lea & Blanrhard, Phila., 1846,
pp. 321-2): "The discovery of PEPSIN
fo ms a new era in the chemical history of
Di gestion. From recent experiments we
know that food is dissolved as rapidly in an
artificial digestive fluid, prepared from Pep
sin, as it is in 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.
His experiments with Dr Beaumont, on the
Gastric Jnice, obtained from tho living hu
man stomach and from animals are well
known. "In all cases," he says, "digestion
occurred as perfectly in the artificial as the
natural digestions."
As a DYSPEPSIA CURER, Dr Houghton's
preparation of Pepsin lias produced the
most marvellous envois, curing eases of De
bility, Emaciation, Nervous Decline, and
dispeptic Consumption, supposed to bo on
tho very verge ol the grave. It is imposs
ble to give the details of cases in the limit
of this advertisement—but authenticate
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
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 Ague, or
badly treated Fever anil Ague, and tho 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.
Ou> STOMACH COMPLAINTS. —There is no
form of Old Stomach Complaints which it
does not seem to reach and removo at once.
No matter how bad they may be, it gives
Instant Belief I A single dose removes all
the unpleasant symptoms, and it only needs
to bo 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 in cases of Nausea
Vomiting, Cramps, Soreness of the pit of
the Stomach, distress after eating, low. cold
state of the Blood, Heaviness, Lowr ess of
Spirits, Despondency, Emanciation, Weak
ess, tendency to Insanity, Suicide, &c.

kill. These two persons have bren snatched
from the very jaws of t'., e destroyer through 'he
agency of that Twist potent of all medicines,
V R ;Sy,kINDIAN VEGETABLE
PANACEA.
Dr '.ulUn's Panacea is the only*rtain cure
fot or King's Evil, Teller, Erysipelas,
Old Sores and Ulcera, Mercurial Diseases, and all
othci afl'estiona, cutaneous or otherwise, arising
front impurities of the blood.
In the extraordinary cure of Mr. Brooks, peo
ple who visit hitn, hoi J np their hands in as
b"!!?hmeni( 'J iMI medicine cO' l !'' !' avo ar "
reefed BIS disease—then go away resolved to re
commend Dr Cullen's Indian Vegetable Pana
cea to every one they hear of who has need of a
purifying medicine.
So with Christiana Sands—her enje of Scrof
ulous sore throat was quite as extraordinaiy as
Mr. Brooks', when wo reflect that from the dis
ease her tea or coffee would frequently pass out
of tier cars, when attempting to drink, [Sec
her certificate.]
The people are beginning to understand, too
that the various Syrups of Sartaparilla are little
better than molasses, and that it is madness to
throw away money on articles which, under the
most favorable cireumstancea, do not produce
any impression on the system until several gal
ons have been swallowed. One bottlo of Dr.
Cullen's Panacea seldom fails to produce con
viction in U> minds of patients that a radical
cure is certain.
Thus hope, [JO necessary, an ally to medi
cine.] springs up st the outset, and the patient
re cured before any other preparation could have
made the slightest impression upon the disease !
In fact, the twelve ounce bottles of Di. Cul
len's Panacea, compared with the pint end quart
bottles of other purifiers, are valuatde about in
the proportion of gold to copper. Those who
woulc prefer a penny Jo a he! f Ragle, on account
of its size, would make a poor selection to say
the least.
Sarsaparilla a good purifier! Dr. Cullen's
Panacea contains its oxlract in its most concen
trated form. Added to this nte other extracts,
more active and powerful, and which effect in
combination willi the Barsaparilla, what the Lit
ter article, orcoml.inetl with the most powerfu
poisons, cannot alone accomplish.
It has cured where every thing else had failed
and (his in a multitude of cases—Slot iu Eutope
or in tho moon, (wheie so many great cuies
have been performed,) but in Philadelphia and
other pal'ts 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 uruggist's apprentice that boiling
destroys the essential virtues of medicinal plants
and roots.

Wild Cherry.
PHILAD., April 15, 1850.
Dr. Swayne—Dear Sir—Being severely af
flicted with a violent cold and cough, which
settled upon my lungs attended with great
debility, soreness in my side, that 1 could
scarcely breathe, spitting of blood, no ap
petite, could get no rest at night, owing to
the severity of my cough, would spit as
muchasapint of blood at a time. This
mournful state of things continued tintil I
almost despaired of being cured, having
tried physicians and numer jus tilings with
out relief; but having heard of the great vir
tues of your Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry,
and its being approved ol by physicians of
the first eminence, I concluded to make a
trial of it, and am happy to state that three
bottles performed a perfect cure; roy sleep
is now undisturbed and sweet, and 1 firmly
believe that to your meiiicino I am indebted
for this great cure.
I shall be glad to communicate with any
person on the subject who may be pleased
to call on me, and corroborate what 1 have
said in the above certificate, at the factory or
my residence.
Yours, most respeotfully,
EDWARD HANFON,

DR. HOOF LAND'S
CELEBRATED BITTERS,
FREPARED BY
DR. C. M. JCKSON,
AT THE
GERMAN MEDICINE STORE.
No. 120 Arch Street, Philadelphia.
Their power over tho above diseases is
not excelled, if equalled, by any other rep
aration in the United States, as the cures
attest, in many cases after skilful physicians
had failed,
These Bitters are worthy tho 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
iain and pleasant.
Read and he Convinced.
The Hon. Charles D. Hineliue, Editor of
the "Catnden Democrat," the best paper in
West Jersey, says, July 21: —
"HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS." —'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. From inquiry we were per
suaded to use it, and must say we found
it specific in its action upon diseases of the
liver and digestive organs, and the powerful
influence it exerts upon nervous prostration
is really surprising. It calms and stregihens
tho nerves, bringing them into a state ol re
pose, making sleep refreshing.
[From 'he "Boston Bee. ']
The editor said, Dec. 22d—
'Dr. Hoofland's Celebrated German Bitters
for the cure of Liver Complaint, Jaundice,
Dyspeysia, Chronic or Nervous Debility, is
deservedlv one of the most popular medi
cines of the day. These Bitters have been
used by thousands, and a friend at our elbow
says he lias 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 Bitlers, the
pai! p 9t constantly £iiis strength and vigor—
a fact worthy of great consideration. They
are pleasant in tnsfe and smell, and can be j
used by persons with the most delicate stom
achs with safety, under any circumstances.
We are speaking from experience audio the
afflicted we advise their use."
Judge M. M. Noah, a gentleman with
great scientific and and litterary attainments,
said in his "New York Weekly Messenger,"
January 6, 1850.
"Dr IlooJlaneTs German Bitters. —Hero is
a preparation which the leading presses in
the Union appear to be unanimous in re
commending, and the reason is obvious. It
is made after a prescription furnished by
one o: the most celobraled physicians of
modern times, the late Dr Christopher Wil
helm Hoofland, Professor to the Univeisity
of Jena, Private Physician to the King of
Prussia, and one of the greatest medical wri
ters Germany has ever produced. He was
emphaticaßy .the enemy of humbug, and
the.efore a medicine of which lie was the
inventor and endorser may be confidently le
licd on. lie specially recommended it in
Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Debility, Ver
tigo, Acidity of the Stomach, Constipation,
and 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
these 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."
MORE EVIDENCE.
The "Philadelphia Saturday Gazette," the
best family newspnpet published in the Uni
t ed Slates, the editor says of
DR. HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS.
"It is seldom that we recommend what
are termed Patent Medicines to tho confi
dence and patronage of our readers: and,
therefore, when wo recommend Dr. Hoof
land's German Bitters, we wish it to bo dis
linctly understood It at we are not speaking
of the nostrums of the day, that are noised
about for a brief period ami then forgotten
after they hare done their guilty race of mis
chif, but of a medicine long established,
universally prized, and which has met the
hearty appro?*' 0' the Faculty itself."
Evidence upou e\ld? l,r .e has been rc
[ ccived (like the foregoing) from all sections
ol the Union, the last three yeai, and the
strongest testimony in its favor, is, that there is
more of it used in tho practice of the regu
lor Physicians of Philadelphia than all other
nostrums combined, a fact that can easily
be established, and fully proving that a sci
entific. preparation will meet with their qur>
ct approval when presented even in this
form.
That this medicine will cure Liver Com
plaint and Dyspepsia, no one can doubt, af
ter using it as directed. It acts specifically
upon the stomach and liver—it is preferable
to calomel in all bilious diseases —the effect is
immediate. They can ha administrued to
FEMALE or INFANT with safety and reliuble
benefit, at any time.
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS.
This medicine has attained that high char
acter which is necessary for all medicines to
attain to indace counterfeiters to put forth a
spurious article at the risk of the livee of
those who are innocently deceived.
LOOK WELL TO THE MARKS OF THE GENUINK.

JACKSON upon the wrapper, and the name
Mown in the bottle, without which they are

in vain to obtain relief from any other
source. One of the Proprietors is a regular
physician of extensive experience, who de
votes his time exclusively, to their prepora
tion. For FEVER & AGuE, they have nev
er yet failed. At least one thousadd oases
in the neighborhood of Philadelphia, have
been cured since the first of Bept.. last. In
Dyspnpsin, Rheumatism, Liver Complaint,
Scrofula, for Worms, and all other diseases
of children, they are unequalled by anything
ever prepared for the purpose, while for the
various diseases of Females there is no me
dicine can compare with them. There is
more of them sold—they are in greater de
mand than any other pill—and when once
introduced in a family, they need no other
medicine. Each box containing Fifty Pills,
renders them the cheapest, while they are
decidedly the best, ns well as the mildest in
action, of any now in the market.
The Editor of the "City Item," thus
speaks of them:
IV READER, you are suffering from fever
and ague, and you have never tried U'ors
dell's Vegetable Restorative Pills. Shake no
inore. There issliJl hope for you—you may
yet be cured- Go, or send at once to A.
Weeks & Co., 70 North Fughlh street., and
procure a box of these unrivaled pills, which
are a sovrcigu untidote for this distressing
complaint.
Col. Forney of the Pennsylvunian,
says :
WORSDELL'S PII.LS. —This excellent family
medicine is daily winning new t-inmphs
over disease, and consequently in tho high
road to public favor. In the removal of the
every day ills that flesh is heir to, wo know
of no better compound. We hoard the oth
er day of a desperate case of scrofulous e
ruptious of tho head and face being enirely
cured by them.
Du Solle of the "Times," says •.
ty The great popularity ol Worsdell's
Vegetable Pills, is attributed to the just .tier
it which they really possess. They have
been quietly gaining tho fame they now
have, by tho force of their own virtue*.
The means usually employed to give eclat
to new remedies have not been adopted by
the proprietors. They have bepti content to
let their medicine speak foi itself. It is now
doing it in every section of the country.
