ANOTHER SCIENTIFIC WONDER
IP IB IP SUSJ 8 ■
THE TRUE DIGESTIVE FLUID,
OR
A Great Dyspepsia curer, Prepared from
RENMST, or the fourth Stomach of the Ox,
after directions of Baron Liebig, 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, Dyspepsis, Jsodfee, Liver Com
plaint, Constipation, and Debility, Curiog
after Nature's own method, by Natuiu'a Own
agent, the Gastric Juice. .
I3T Half a spoonful of this Fluid, infqsed
in water, will digest or dissolve, Five Pounds
of Roast Bcrf 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 flu id is the Great solvent of the
Food, the Purifying, Preserving, and Stimula
ting Agent of the stomach and intenstines.
1 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 no good
1 Gastric Juice, and hence the disease, dis
tress and debility whioh ensue.
PEPSIN AKD 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 the human stom
ach after death, and sometimes causes the
' stomach to digest itself, or eat i'self up. It
I is also found in the stomach of animals, as
> the ox, calf, &c. ft is the material used by
farmers in making cheese, called Rennet,
the effect of which has longbeen the spe
cial wonder of the dairy. The curdliug of
' milk ia the first process of digestion. Ran
f net possesses astonishing power. The stom
> acli of a calf will curdle nearly one thou
- sand times its own weight of milk. Baron
; Liebig stales that, 'One part of Pepsin dis
-1 solved in sixty thousand parts of water, will
digest meat and other food." Diseased
> stomachs produce no good Gastric Juice
t Rennet or Pepsin. To show that this want
) may be perfectly supplied, we quote the
f following
f SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE!
BARON LIEBIG, in Lis celebrated work on
Animal Chemistry, says: "An Artificial Di
gestive Fluid anatagous to the Gastric Juice,
may be readily prepared from the nucous
' membrane of the stomach of the Call, in
which various articles of food, as meat and
eggs* will be softened, changed, and diges
ted, 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 Fowlers &
Wells, New York, page 35. states the same
, great fact, and describes the method of prep
f aration. There are few higher authorities
, than Dr. Pereira.
; Dr Combe, in .his valuable writings on
j the "Physiology of Digestion," observes
, that "a diminution of the due quantity of
| the Gaslrio Juice is a prominent and all-pre
vailing cause of Dyspepsiaand he states
| that "a distinguished professor of medicine
in London, who was severely afflicted with
j- this complaint, finding every thing else to
fail, had recourse to the Gastric Juice, ob
' tained from the'slomach of living animals,
which proved completely successful."
Dr. Graham, author of the famous works
on "Vegetable Diet," says: "it is a remar
kable fact in physiology, that the stomachs
of animdls, macerated in water, impart to
the fluid the property of dissolving various
articles of food, and of effecting a kind ot
: artificial digestion of them in no wise dif
i ferent from the natural digestive process."
1 Dr. Simon's great work, the "Chemistry
■ of Man," (Lea Si Blanrhard, Phile., 1846,
; pp. 321-2): "The - discovery of PEPSIN
to ms a new era in the chemical history of
Di gestion. From recent experiments we
> know that food is dissolved as rapidly in an
I 'artificial digestive fluid, prepared from Pep
s sin, as it is in the natural Gastric Juice it
, sell"
, Professor Dunglison of the Jefferson Col
> lege, Philadelphia, in'his great work on Hit
r man Physiology, devotes more than fifty
) pages to an examination of this subject
) His experiments with Dr. Beaumont, on the
. Gastric Juice, obtained from the living hu
i man stomach and from animals are well
1 known. "In all cases," he says, "digestion
j occurred as perfectly in the artificial as the
1 natural digestions."
t As a DYSPEPSIA CURER, Dr Houghton's
preparation of Pepsin has produced the
moat marvellous effects, curing cases of De
. bility, Emaciation, Nervous Decline, and
dispeptic Consumption, supposed to be on
the very verge of 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
• drat Remarkable Cures , in Philadelphia, New
York, and Boston alone. These were
- nearly all desperate cases, and the cures
1 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 and Ague, and the evil
- effects of Quinine, Mercury, and other.drugs
- upon the Digestive organs, after a long sick
-5 ness. Also, for excess in eating, and the
• too free use of ardent spirits. It almost rec
-3 onciles Health with Intemperance.
OLD STOMACH COMPLAINTS.—There is no
, form of Old Stomach Complaints which it
) does not teem to reach and remove at once.
> No matter how bad they may be, it gives
. Instant Relief t A single dose removes all
. the unpleasant symptoms, and it only needs
. to be repeated, for a short time, to make
I these good effects permanent. Purity of
I Blood and Vigor of Body, follow at once. It
is particularly excellent in cases of Nausea
1 Vomiting, Cramps, Soreness of the pit of
the Stomach, distress after eating, low, cold
state ol the Blood, Heaviness, Lowness of
Spirits, Despondency, Emaneiation, Weak
ess, tendency to Insanity, Suicide, &c.

DR. CULLEN'S INDIAN VEGETABLE
PANACEA.
Dr Cullen'i Panacea la the only cartain cure
for Scrofula or King's Evil, Tetter, Erysipelas,
Old Sore* and Ulcers, Mercurial Diseases, and all"
other affealions, cutaneous or otherwise, arising
from impurities of (he blood.
In the extraordinary cure ofMr. Brooks, peo
ple who visit him, hold up their hands in as
tonishment, that ANT medicine could beve ar
rested ins 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 cujp of Scrof
ulous sore throat was quite at extraordinary as
Mr. Brooks', when we reflect that from tbe dis
ease her tea or coffee would froquently pass out
of li*r ears, when attempting to driuk. [See
ner .certificate.] ,•
Tbe people are*beginning to understand, too
that the various Syrups of Sariaparilla are little
better than molasses, and that it ia madness to
throw away money on articles which, under the
moßt favorable circumstances, do not produce
any impression on tbe system until several gal
ons have been swallowed. One botlle of Dr.
Cullen's Panacea seldom fails to produce con
viction in the minds of patients that a radical
cure ia certain.
Thus hope, [so necessary, an ally to medi
cine.] spring* up *t the outset, and the patient
is cured before any othar preparation could have
mede the slightest impreseion upon the disease I
In fscl, the twelve ounce bottles of Di. Cul
len's Panacea, compared with the pint and quart
bottles of other purifiers, are veluable about in
the proportion of gold to copper. Those who
wonle prefer a penny to a half eagle, on account
of it* sixe, would make a poor selection to say
the least,
Sarsaparilla a good ponder I Dr. Cullen's
Panacea contain* its oxtraet in its most concen
trated form. Added f Arts are other extracts,
more active and powerful, and which effect in
combination with the Btrsaperilla, what the lat
ter article, or combined with tbe moat powerfo
poisons, cannot alone accomplish. .
It has cured where everything elso had failed
and this in a multitude of cases—not in Europe
or in tho moon, (where eo many great cures
have been pcrformedy) but in Philadelphia and
other pafts of the union. And be it distinctly
understood that we do not obtain our extracts by
"boling 400 gallons down to one," it being
known to every druggist's apprentice that boiling
destroy! the essential virtuea of medicinal plants
and roots.

CAM BE EFFECTUALLY CUBED BY
DR. HOOFLAND'S
CELEBRATED BITTERS^
PREPARED BY
DR. . H. JCKVOIV,
AT THE
GERMAN MEDICINE STORE,
N. ISO Arch Street, Philadelphia.
Their power over (he above diseases is
not excelled, if equalled, by any other rep.
aration in tne United States, as the cures
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 aflectionsof the di
gestive organs, they are, withal, safe, cer
tain and pleasant.
, Read and be Convinced.
I The Hon. Charles D. Hineline, Editor of
the "Camden Democrat," the best paper in
West Jersey, says, July 21:—
"HOOFLAND'B 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 pei
suaded to use it, and must say we found
it specific in its aotion upon diseases of the
liver and digestive organs, and the powerful
influence it exerts upon nervous prostration
is really surprising. It calms and stregthens
the nerves, bringing them into a state of re
pose, making sleep refreshing.
[From the "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 be has himself received an effectual
and permanent cure of Liver Complaint
from the use of this remedy. We are con
viuced that, in the use of these Bitters, the
patient constantly gains strength and vigor—
a fact worthy of great consideration. They
r are pleasant in taste and smell, and can be
' used by persons with the most delicate stom
achs with safety, under any circumstances.
We are speaking from experience and to the
afflicted we advise their use." ,
Judge M. M. Noah, a gentleman with
great scientific and and litterary attainments,
said in his "Sew York Weekly Messenger,"
January 6, 1850.
"Dr Hoofland's German Bitters. —Here it
; 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
I one of the most celebrated physicians of
, modern times, the late Dr. Christopher Wil
; helm Hoofland, Professor to the University
| of Jena, Private Physician to tho King. p(
i Prussia, and one of the greatest medical wri
ters Germany has ever produced. He was
emphatically the enemy of humbug, and
therefore a medicino of which he was the
invenlorjjfld endorser may be confidently re-,
lied on. recommended ■( in
, Liver ComplW|k Dyspepsia. Debility, Ver
' ligo, Acidity ofra#KStomach, Constipation,
and all complaints aßaiug from a disordered
condition of the stomach, the liver and (he
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 feel warranted, not
only in caling the Mention of our readers
to the present proprietor's (Dr. C. M. Jack*
son's) Preparation, but in recommending the
iTt'wle to all afflicted."
MORE EVIDENCE.
The "Philadelphia Saturday Gazette," the
t best family newspapet published in the Utii-
I ted Slates, the editor says of
I DR. HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS.
I "It is seldom that we recommend what
; are termed Patent Medicines to the confi
dence and patronage of our readers; and,
therefore, when we recommend Dr. Hoof
land's German Bitters, we wish it to be dis
tinctly understood that we are not speaking
of the nostrums of the day, that are noised
about for a brief period and 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 approval of the Faculty itself."
Evidence upon evidence has been re
ceived (like the foregoing) from all sections
ot the union, the lost three years, and the
strongest testimony in Us favor, is, that thero is
more of it used in the 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 aci
, entific preparation wiU meet with Iheir qui
. et 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 ditecteu. It acts specifically
I upon the stomach and liver—lt is preforable
, to calomel in alt bilious diseases —the effect is
immediate. They can lie adminbtejed to
FEMALE or INFANT with safoty and reliable
benefit, at any time.
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS.
This medicine has attained that high char
acter which is necessary for all medicines to
attain to induce counterfeiters to put forth a
spurious article at the risk of the lives of
those who are innocently deceived.
