THE TRUE DIGESTIVE FLUID,
OR
<2 S3 a
A Great Dyspepsia curcr, Prepared from
RENNET, or the fourth Stomach of tho Ox,
after directions of Baron Liebig, tho great
Physiological Chemist, by J. S. Houghton,
M. D., No. 11, North Eighth Streot, Phila
delphia, Pa.
This is a truly wonderful remedy for Indi
gestion, Dyspepsia, Jaudice, Livfif Com
plaint, Constipation, and Debility. Curing)
after Nature's own method, by Nature's own
agent, the Gastric Juice.
ty Half a spoontul of this Fluid, infused
in water, will digest of dissolve, Five Pounds
of Roast Reef in about two hours, out of the
stomach.
DIGESTION,
Digestion is Chielly performed in the
stomach by tho aid of a liuid which freely
exudes from the inner coat of that organ,
when in a stato ol health, called the Gastric
Juice. This fluid is tho Great solvent of tiio
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 digestivo apparatus. A weak, half
dead, or injured stomach produces no good
Gastric Juice, and hence the disease, dis
tress and debility which ensue.
PEPSIN AD RENNET.—Pepsin is the chief
element, or grcnl Digesting Principle of tho
Gastric Juice. It is found in great abun
dance in tho solid parts of the human stom
ach alter death, and sometimes causes the
stomach to digest itsolf, or eat 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 making cheese, called Rennet,
the effect of which has long boon tho spe
cial wonder of the dairy. The curdliug of
mill; is the first process of digGst'CTi. i<s£.
net possesses astonishing po\\or. The stom
acti'of a calf will Ciiuio nearly one thou
sand limes its own weight cf milk, llaron
Liebig stales 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 siiow that this want
may be perfectly supplied, we quote the
following
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE!
BARON LIEBIG, in Lis celebrated work on
Animal-Chemistry, suy6: "An Artificial Di
gestive Fluid analagous to the Gastric Juice,
may he readily prepared from the nucous
membrane of the stomach of the Call, in
which various articles of food, as meat and
eggs: will be softoiietl, changed, and diges
ted, jest 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
aration. There are few higher authorities
than Dr. l'oreira.
Dr Combe, in .his valuable writings 011
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 Dyspepsiaand he states
that "a distinguished professor of medicine
in London, who was severely nfflicted with
this complaint finding every thing else to
fail, had recourse to the Gastric Juice, ob
tained from the stomach 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 stoihuchs
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 & Blauohard, 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 011 Hu
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
man stomach and from animals are well
known. "In allcasos," he says, "digestion
occurred as perfectly in the artificial us the
natural digestions."
As a DYSPEPSIA CURER, Dr Houghton's
preparation of Pepsin has produced the
most marvellous effects, curing cases of De
bility, Emaciation, Nervous Decline, nud
dispeptic Consumption, supposed to be 011
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
dred Remarkable Cures, in Philadelphia, New
York, and Boston alone. These were
nearly all desperate eases, 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 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 frc-e use of ardent spirits. It almost rec
onciles Health with Intemperance.
OI.D STOMACH COMPLAINTS.—Thero is 110
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
Instant Relief! A single dose removes all
the unpleasant 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 m cases of Nausea
Vomiting, Cramps, Soreness of the pit of
the Stumach, distress after eating, low, cold
state oi the Blood, lleavitws, Lowi ess of
Spirits, Despondency, Em&neiation, Weak
ess, tendency to Insanity, Suicide, &c.
Price, ONE DOLLAR per bottlo. One

PANACEA.
The Afflicted nro invited to call and see Mi
Isaac Brooks, Jr., at the corner of Third and

Beach street below Spraco street, < n the Schuyl
kill. These two persons have bien snatched
from the very jaws of the destioyer. through '.he
agency of tb.it most potent of all medicines,
Dll CULLEN'S INDIAN VEGETABLE
PANACEA.
Di- Cullen's Panacea is the only c.rlain cure
foi Scrofula or King's Evil, Tetter, Erysipelas,
Old Sores and Ulcers, Mercurial Diseases, and all
olhei afl'estions, cutaneous or otberwisq, arising
from impurities of the blood.
iu the extraordinary cure ofMr. Brooks, peo
ple who visit him, hold up their hands in as
tonishment, that ANY 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.
So with Christiana Sands—her cuie of Scrof
ulous soie throat was guile as extraordinary ns
Mr. Brooks', when we reflect that from the dis
ease hei lea or coffee would frequently pass out
of her ears, when attempting to drink, [See
her certificate.]
The people arc beginning to understand, too
that the varioua Syrups of Sartaparilla uro little
better than molasses, and that it is madness to
throw away money on articles which, under the
most favorable circumstances, do not produce
any impression on the system until several gal
ons have been swallowed. Ono bottle of Dr.
Cullen's Panacea seldom fails to produco con
viction in the minds of patients that a radical
I cure is certain.
Thus hope, [3O neceaeary, an ally to medi
cine.] springa up at the oot.et, and the patient
is cured before any otbor preparation could have
made the slightest impression upon the disease !
In fnct, tbetwolvu ounce bottles of Ui. Cul
leu's Panacea, compared with the pint and quart
bottles of other purifiers, are valuable about in
the proportion of gold to copper. Those who
woutc prefer a penny to a half eagle, on account
of its size, would make a poor selection to say
the least.
Barsaparllla a good purifier ! Dr. Cullefi's
Panacea contains its oxtracl in its most concen
trated form. Added to this ore other extracts,
more active and powerful, and which effect in
combination with the Hanuparilla, what the lat
ter article, or combined with the most powcrfu
poisons, cannot alone accomplish.
It has cured where everything else bad failed
and this in a multitude ol cases —not in Europe
or in tiro moon, (where so many great cures
have been performed.) hut in Philadelphia and
other plifts of the union. And bo 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
destioys the essential virtues of medicinal plants
and roots.

settled upon my lungs attended with great

mournful statu of things continued until I
almost despaired ol being _cured, having
tried physicians and numerous things with
out relief; but having heard of the great vir
tues of your Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry,
and its being approved of by physicians of
the first emineuco, I concluded to make a
trial of it, and am happy to state that three 1
bottles performed a perfect cure; my sleep
is now undisturbed and sweet, and 1 firmly
believe that to your medicine I am indebted
for this great cure.
1 Uiull 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 abore certificate, at the factory or
my residence.
Yours, most respectfully,

DR. lIOOFLAND'S
CELEBRATED BITTERS,
7REFARED BY
DR. M. JACKSON,
AT THE
GERMAN MEDICINE STORE,
No. 120 Arcb Street, Philadelphia.
Their power over the above diseases is
not excelled, if equalled, by any other rep
aration in the United States, as the cures
attest, in many cases ufior skilful physicians
had fallod.
These Bitters aro worthy the attention of
invalids. Possessing great virtues in the
rectification of diseases of the Liver and ba
ser glauds, exercising the most searching \
powers in weakness aud aflectionsof the di
gestive orgaus, they are, withal, safe, cer
taiu and pleasant.
Read and be Convinced.
The Hon. Charles D. Hineline, Editor of
the "Camden 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 upou" diseases of die
liver and digestive organs, and tho 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—
"I)r. Hoojland'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 has himself received an effectual
aud permanent cure of Liver Complaint
from the use of this remedy. Wo aro con
vinced that, in the uso of these Bitters, the
patient constantly gains strength and vigor—
a fact worthy of great consideration. They
are pleasant in taste and smell, and can be
used by persons with the most delicate stom
achs tvith 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 anu litterary attainments,
said in his "New York Weekly Messenger,"
January 6, 1850.
"Dr. Hoojland's German Bitters.— Here 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 ot the most celebrated physicians of
modern limes, the late Dr Christopher Wil
helm Hoofland, Professor to the University
of Jena, Private Physician to the King of
Prussia, and one of the greatest medical wri
ters Germany has 6ver produced. He was
emphatically tho enemy of humbug, and
the.efore a medicine of which he was the
inveutor and endorser may be confidently re
lied on. He specially recommended it in
entific preparation will meet witn their oni
et approval when presented even in this
form. i
That this medicine will cure Liver Com
plaint and Dyspepsia, no one CUM doubt, af
ter using it as ailecled. It acts'' specifically
upon the stomach and liver—it is preferable
to calomel in all bilious diseases —the effect is
immediate. They can lie administered to
FEMALE or INFANT with safety ami reliable
benefit, at any time.
BEYVARK OF COUNTERFEITS.
This medicine has attained that high char
acter which is necessary for all modiciucs to
attain to induce counterfeiters to put forth a
spurious article at thu risk of the lives of
those who are innocently deceived.
LOOK WELL TO THE MARKS OF THE GENUINE.
They have the written signaluro of C. M.
JACKSON upon the wrapper, and the name
blown in the bottle, without which they are

more of them sold—they are in greater de-'

renders them the cheapest, while they are
decidedly the best, as well as the mildest in
aetion, of any now in the market.

speaks of them:

procuro a box of these unrivaled pills, which
are a sovreign antidoto for this distressing
complaint.
Col. Forney of the Pcnnsytvunian,
says :
WORSDELL'S PILLS.— This excellent family
medicine is daily winning new triumphs
over disease, and consequently in the high
road to public favor. In the removal of the
every day ills that flesh is heir to, we know
of no better compound. We heard the oth
er day of a desperate case of scrofulous e
ruptions of the head and face being enirely
cured by them.
I)u Solle of the "Times," says -,
ty The great popularity of Worsdell's
Vegetable Pills, is attributed to tho just mer
it which they really possess. They have
been quietly gaining the fame they now
have, by the force of their own virtues.
The means usually employed to give eclat
to new remedies have not been adopted by
the proprietors' Thoy have been content to
let their medicine speak foi itself. It is now
doing it in every section of the country.
They are for salo by most of the Storo

tities at reasonable rates, at the Laboratory
