| DIGESTION.
Digestion is chiefly performt in the stom-
ach BY the aid Of a fluid which freely exudes
from the inner coat Of that organ, when in a
I state of health, called The Gastric Juice. This
| fluid is the Great Solvent Of the Food, the Pu.
lrifying, Preserving and Stimulating Agent Of
the stomach and ntestines. Without It there
will be no digestion--no conversion Of food
| into blood, and no nutrition Of the body; but

PEPsIN AND RENNET.
Pepsin is the chief element or great diges.
ting principle OF the Gastric Juice. Il is
found in great abundance in the solid parts
of the human stomach after death, and some
times causes the stomach to digest itself, or
eat itself up. 1t is also found in the stomach
of animals, as tho OK, calf. &c. 1t is the ma
teral used by farmers in making cheese,
called Rennet, the effect of which has long
been the special wonder Of the dairy. The
cording ofmllk is the first process of diges.
ton. Rennet possesesses astonishing pow
er. The stomach Of a calf will curdle nearly
one thousand times its own weight OF milk.
Baron Liebig states that ''One part OF Pepsin
dissolved in sixty thousand parts OF water,
| will digest meat and other food,n Diseased
stomacks produce no good Gastric Juice,
Rennet or Pepsin To show that this want
may be perfectly supplied we quote the fol-
lowing.
!, Baron Liebig, in his celebrated work on
| Animal Chemistry, says: IAN Artificial
Digestive Fluid may be readily prepared from
the mucous membrane Of thestomach of the
calf, in which various articles OF food, as
meat and eggs. will be softencd, changed
and digested, just in the. same manner as
they would be in the human stomach" a'5

more than fifty pages to an examination OF

Asa Dyspepsia Curer, Or, Houghton's pre-

marvellous effects, curing cases ofDebility,
Emacation. Nervous Decline and Dyspeptic

verge OF the grave. 1t is impossible 10 give
the details OF cases in the limits Of this ad

have been given of more than 200 remark

Boston alone. These were nearly all des-
perate cases, and the cures were NOT only
rapid and wonderful but permanent.

produce healthy digestion is believed to act
upon electromagnetic principles!
There is no form of old Stomach Complaints
which it does not seem to reach and remove
at once. No matter how bad they may be,
it gives instant relief! A single dose re-
moves all the unpleasant SYMPTOMS, and il
only needs to be repeated for a short time
to make these good effects permanent. Pu.

once. 1t is particularly excellent in cases
Of Nausea. Vomiting. Cramps, Soreness of the
