LADvEsTisEmaYr.l—Whilst millions of our fellow-beings
groan iu absolute despair under the various and contradic-
tory treatments" of which nauseous drugs, and every de-
scription of harassing and torturing appliances form the prin-
cipal ingredients, it is delightful to have to record the con-
tinuous progress, in general confidence, of a preparation
which, we aro justified in saying, has done more to, prevent
human misery and untimely death than any or all the agencies
which science had previously brought to light. We here allude
to Messrs. Du Barry's celebrated Revalcnta Arabica Food,
which, besides being a delicious article of general diet, effects
speedy and perfect restoration to health in ca ,es where
long and expensive courses of medicine have previously
been tried in vain. Amongst Vre maladies in which
it effects a complete and speedy cure, are dyspepsia (in-
digestion), constipation, functional irregularity, obstruc-
tions, acidity, cramps, fits, heartburn, diarrhoea, nervous-
ness, biliousness, affections of the liver and kidneys, fla-
tulency, distension, palpitation of the heart, nervous headache,
deafness, noises in the head and ears, giddiness, pains be-
tween the shoulders, and in almost every part of the body,
chronic inflammation and ulceration of the sto each, erup-
tions on the skin, scurvy, fever, scrofula, impurities, poverty
of blood, consumption (if not beyond human aid), dropsy,
rheumatism, gout, influenza, grippe, nausea, and vomiting
during pregnancy, after eating, or at sea, low spirits, spleen,
general debility, paralysis, cough, asthma, tightness across the
chest, phlegm, inquietude, sleeplessness, involuntary blush-
ing, tremours, dislike to society, unfitness for study, delu-
sions, loss of memory, vertigo, blood to the head, exhaus-
tion, melancholy, groundless fear, indecision, wretchedness,
thoughts of self-destruction, &c. When upwards of fifty
thousand respectable, individuals, any one of whom can be
p'-rsonally referred to, have come forward to express their
gratitude to Messrs. Dnßarry, it would be fruitless to attempt
to give an idea of the variety of the symptoms and circumstances
in which relief has been afforded. But we shall take an instance
or two at random. Mrs. Maria Jolly, of Worthain Ling, Nor-
folk, writes : " For 50 years I had suffered indescribable agony
from dyspepsia, nervousness, asthma, cough, flatulency,
spasms, sickness at the stomach, and copious vomiVngs."
She was cripp'ed through weakness and infirmity, and she
adds, " My sufferings were so awful (from flatulency, sic
.), that I
have many a time prayed for death as a happy deliverance."
This sufferer, "to the astonishment of all her friends " was
restored to health and sound sleep by the use of the food ;
and she states that since her recovery she had tried it with
similar happy effects upon "a little grl of seven years of
age, who had been suffering fearfully from an eruption of the
skin, large white lumps, itching dreadfully, an 4 making her
cry from pain." Miss Elizabeth Yeoman, of G iteacre, near
Liverpool, testifies to a similar cure of " ten years' dyspepsia
and neryousirritability, which had rendered life a perfect bur-
den to her," and f which she had vainly tried " the best me-
dical advice, bleeding and blistering, and an astonishing
amount of drugs " In infancy, as in maturity and old age, the
same [unvarying and unfdling effect is produced, and it is but
fair to acknowledge that, bythe introduetion of this food, kT essrs.
Du Barry have conferred a substantial boon upon mankind,.
