preparation, the pains and evils of Indigestion and
Dyspepsia are removed, just as they would be by
a healthy Stomach. It is doing wonders for Dys- •
poptics, curing cases of Debility, Emaciation, Ner
vous Decline, and Dyspeptic Consumption, sup
posed to be on the verge of thegrave. The
Scientific Evidence upon which it is based, is in
the highest degree Curious and Remarkable.
SCIENTFIC EVIDENCE
BARON LEIBIG in his celebrated work on
Animal Chemistry, says: "An Artificial Diges
tive Fluid, analogous to the 'Gastric Juice, may
be readily prepared umaj the meat and eggs, will
be softened, changed, and digested, just in the
same manner as they would be in the human
stomach."
Dr. COMBE, in his valuable writings on the
" Physiology of Digestion," observes that "a
dimicutiou of the due quantity of the Gastric
Juice is a prominent and all-prevailing cause of
Dyspepsia;" and ho states that " a ditinguished
professer of medicine in London, who was severe
ly afflicted with this complaint, finding everything
else to WI, had recourse to the Gastric Juice, ob
tained from the stomachs of living animals, which
proved completly successful."
Dr. GRAHAM, author of the famous works
on "Vegetable Diet„” says : "It is a remarkable
fact in physiology, that the rtoinachs of animals,
macerated in water, impart to the fluid the prop
erty of dissolving various articles of food, and of
etibeting a kind of artificial digestion of thew in
no wise different from the natural digestive pro
cess."
tEr Call on the Agent, and got a Descriptive
Circular, gratis, giving a large amount of Scien
tific Evidence,' similar to the above, together with
Reports of Remarkable Cures, from all parts of
the United States.
AS A DYSPEPSIA CURER,
Er. HOUGHTON'S PEPSIN•has produced the
most marvelous effects, in curing cases of Debili
ty, Emaciation, Nervous Decline, and Dyspeptic
Consumption. It is impossible to give the details
acmes in the limits atlas advertisement; but
authenticated certificates have been given ohnore
thtufTwo Hundred Remarkable Cures, in Phila
delphia, New York and Boston alone. These
were nearly all desperate cases, and the cures
were not only rapid and wonderful, but perma
nent.
It is a great Nervous Antidote, and particularly
useful for tendency to Bilious disorder, Liver
Complaint, Fever and Ague, or badly treated Fo
yer and the evil effects of Quinine, Mercury, end
other drugs upon the Digestive Organs, after a
long sickness. Also, for excess in eating, and the
too free use of ardent spirits. It almost recon
ciles Health with intemperance.
OLD STOMACH COMPLAINTS,
There is no form of Old Stomach Complaints
which it does not seem to reach and remove as
once. No matter how bad they may be, it Uivet
Instant Relief ! A single dose restores all the un
pleasant symptoms; and it only needs to be repeat
ed for a short,time to make these good eilbets per

Stomach, distress after eating, low, cold state of
