HOUGTON'S GREAT DYSPEPSIA CURER1 The True Digestive Fluid, or Casti le Juice 1 Prepared Irom Rennet, or the folirlh elomach of the Ox, alter directions of Baron I.liblg, the great l'hysiolofiji'iil Chemist, by 4- S. Houghton, M I) , Philadelphia, Pa. This is a great Natural Remedy for Indigestion, and Dyspppia, curing after Nature's own Method, b) Nature's own Agent, ihe tiastrlc Juice. Pepsin is ihe chief ulnnent, or Great Digesting Principle of the Ga.-tric Juice-lho Sulvent of the Food, the Purifying, I're-ercirtg, and 'Stimulating Agent of the Stomach and Infi'slinca It if extracted from the Digestive Stomach ofthe fix, thus forming an Artificial Digestive Fluid, precisely like ihe naturil Gastric Juice, In its Chemical power, and furnish ing a complete and perfect substitute for it.' By ihe aid of mis preparation, the pains onr) evils ol In digestion and Dyspepsia ore removed just1 as they would be by a healthy Stomach. It la doing wonder for Dyspeptics, curing cases 'of debility, emaciation, nervous decline and Pyspepiio consumption, sup posed lo be on ihe verge of lire grave The Scien tific Evidenre upon which it is based, is in the highest degree curious and remarkable', ddaron Leiehig, in his celebrated work on Animal ChcmUiry, says u "An Artificial Digestive Fluid, analogous lo ihe Gastric Juice, may be prepared from the mucous membrane of the stomach of the Ox, in which various articles of.food, as meat and eggs, will be sqflentd, changed, and digested, just in the same manner as they would be in the human stomach." Half e teaspoonful of pure Pepsin, Infused or dis olvcd In water, will digest or dissolve Fire Pound Roast Heef in about tiro hour out of ihe Stom ach. Dr. Houchton's Pepsin.

It is prepared in Powder, Fand , FM(i r,)rman(i in Prescription vials for the use of Physicians. Private Circulars, for the use of Physicians, mny be obtained of Dr Houghton or his Agents, descri bing the wholo process of preparation snd giving Ihe authorities upon which the claim of ihis new remedy are based. As it is nol a secret remedy, no objection can be raised against its use by Physicians in respectable stanoing and regnlar practice. Price in Fluid foftn, One Dollar per bottle. PEPSIN IiN rOWl'KK.

For convenience of Fending to all parts of the country, the Digeslive matter of the Pepsin, is put up in i lie form of Powder, wilh directions to be dis solved in water by the patient.
