Analytical Chemist, Andrew Ure, M.D., F.R.S., &c., &c,

" London, 24, Bloomsbury-square, June 8, 1849.
"I hereby certify, that hating examined Du Barry's Reva-
lenta Arabica,' 1 find it to be a pure vegetable Farina, perfectly
wholesome, easily digestible, likely to promote a healthy action
of the stomach and bowels, and thereby to counteract dyspep-
sia, constipation, and their nervous consequences.

A FEW CASES,

" Dublin, March 2nd, 1850.
" Respected Sir,—l have now suffered thirty years' indescri-
bable agony from Aneurism, and have applied in vain to the
most eminent of the faculty, both in London and here. I had
given up all hope of a cure, having experienced no relief from
any of the remedies suggested. As a last resource, I tried
your invaluable and delicious Food, and am at last happy to
say that lam perfectly cured. I think it due to the interest of
suffering humanity that the world at large should be acquainted
with and appreciate your delicious Food. I am, sir, your most
humble servant, '

"CORNELIUS O'SULLIVAN, M.D., F.R.S."
"London, August Ist, 1849.
"Dr. Harvey presents his compliments to Messrs. Du Bain-
and Co., and has pleasure in recommending their Revalenta
Food;' it has been singularly useful in many obstinate cases o
diarrhoea, as also of the opposite condition of the bowels an
their nervous consequences."

"3, Sydney Terrace, Reading, Berks, Dec. 3, 1847.
" Gentlemen,—l am happy to be able to inform you, that the
person for whom the former quantity was procured, has derived
very great benefit from its use; distressing symptoms of long
standing have been removed, and a feeling of restored health
induced. Having witnessed t: .e beneficial effects in the above-
mentioned case. I can with confidence recommend it, and shall
have much pleasure in so doing whenever an opportunity offers,
&c., &c. I am, gentlemen, very truly yours,
"JAMES SHORLAND, late Surgeon, 98th Regt.

" Gentlemen,—l have derived much benefit from the use of
the' Revalenta Fond.' It is only due to the public and to your-
selves to state, that you are at liberty to make any use of this
communication which you may think proper. I remain, gentle-
men, your obedient servant, "STUART DE DECI ES."
"4. Park-walk. Little Chelsea, London, Oct. 2, 1848.
"Twenty-seven years' dyspepsia, from which I had suffered

the advice of many, has been effectually removed by your ex-
cellent Revalenta Arabica Food' in six weeks' time, &c., &c.

Arabica. "ALEX. STUART, Archdeacon of Ross."
c" King's College, Cambridge, Oct. 15, 1849.
"I nnw consider myself a stranger to all complaints, except
a hearty old age. lam as well as ever I was, and even quite
free from the vexations and troublesome annoyance of an
eruption of the skin, and of which I had suffered for years,
and which my medical attendant had declared incurable at my
time of life, About sixty years ago I had a fall from my horse;
hemiplegia was the consequence; my left arm and leg were
paralysed, also my left eyelid ; and the eye was displaced.
From 1789 these dilapidations have resisted all remedies, until
now, at the age of 85, by two years' use of your delicious
Breakfast Food, my left arm and leg have been rendered as
useful to me as the right, and the left eyelid restored to health,
the eye so much that it requires no spectacles, &c. I deem this
extraordinary cure of much importance to sufferers at large,
and I consider it my duty to place the above details at your
disposal in any way you think will promote the vvelfare of
others. Faithfully,

"Respected Friend,—l think no one who had received or
seen so much good and comfort result from it as in my mother's
case, would be without it in sickness. Thou art at liberty to
use this letter as thou thinkest best, and I will cheerfully
answer any inquiries. I am, thy friend,

pleasant food, doing good to my own and others' functional
disorders. "Rev. CHARLES KERR."

" Royal Hotel, St. Heliers, Jersey, Nov. 4, 1849.
" My dear Sir,—lt is not to be told all the benefit your food
has been tome; and my little son (ri,s for a saucer of it every
morning—he never wanted a doctop sia 'e it came into the house.
I consider you a blessing to soci, ty at large. Most faithully,
yours, " WALTER KEATING."

her much good, &c., &c. " H. CLARK."

" .... For the last five years I have been in a most deplorable
condition of health, having been subject during that period to
most severe pains in the back, chest, right and left sides, which
produced vomiting almost daily..... Next to God I owe you a
great debt of gratitude. I have not had any sickness at the
stomach since I commenced your Food, &c., &c. I remain,
gentlemen, yours very truly,

"Gentlemen,—The lady for whom I ordered your food is six
months advanced in pregnancy, and was suffering severely from
indigestion, and constipation, throwing up her meals shortly
after eating them, having a great deal of heartburn, and being
constantly obliged to resort to physic or enema, and sometimes
to both. I am happy to inform you that your food produced
instant relief. She has never been sick since, had hut little
heartburn, and the functions are more regular, &c.

"THOMAS WOODHOUSE.'

"Pool Anthony, Tiverton, Nov. 8, 1848.
"All that I had suffered from for twenty-five years, and which
no medicine could remove or relieve, seems to vanish under
the influence of Revalenta. I enjoy sound and refreshing
sleep, which, until now, I could not procure. Nervousness is
pass►ng away rapidly, and I am much more calm and collected
►n everything I do, and it has quite sweetened my poor temper.
It now affords me pleasure to do for others what, before, I did
not dare to do for nervous irritation, &c.
