GREAT DYSPEPSIA CURER!
The True Digestive Fluid, or Gastric Juice
Prepared from Rennet, or the fourth stomach of the
Gx, after directions of Baron Liebig, the great
Physiological Chemist, by J. S. Houvhton, M.
D., Philadelphia, Ps.
This is a great Natural Remedy for Indigestion,
and Dyspepsia, curing after Nature'a own Method,
b Nature's own Agent, the Gastric Juice. Pepsin
is the chief element, or Great Digesting Principle
of the Gastric Juice the Solvent of the Food, the
Purifying, Preferring, and SttmiiAting Agent ol
the Stemaoh and Intestines. Ills extracted from
the Digestive Stomach of the Ox,' thus forming an
Artificial Digestive Fluid, precisely like the naturil
Gastric Juicu, in itu Chemical powers, and furnish
ing a complete and pcrlect substitute for it. By
the aid of mis preparation, the pains and evils or in
digestion and Dyspepsia are removed just as they
would be by s healthy Stomach. It iedoitig wondsr
for Dyspeptics, curing cases of debility, emaciation,
nervous decline and Dyspeptic consumption, sup
posed to be on tho verge of the grave The Scien
tific Evidence upon which it Is based, is in the
highest degree curious and remarkable.
Baron Leicbig, in his celebratod work on Animal
Chemistry, says : "An Artificial Digestive Fluid,
anaogoua to the Gastric Juice, msy be preparedfrom
the mucous membrane of the stomach of the Ox, in
which various articles of food, as meat and eggs,
wlH be tqflentd, changed, and digested, Jutt in the
tame manner as they would be in Vu human elomach."
Half b teaspoonful of purs Pbfsir, infused or dis
olved in water, wlli digest or dissolve Five Pound

Private Circulars, for the use of Phvsiclan. mav
be obtained of Dr Houghton or his Agents, descri
bing the whole process of preparation and giving
the authorities anon which the,, claims of thia new
remedy s'fe based. Aa it la not a'aecret remedy",' (to

in respectable standing snd regulsr practice. Pries
