PEPSIN,


The true Digestive Fluid, or Gastric Juice
prepared from Rennet, or the fourth stom-
ache of the Ok, after directions from Baron
liebig, the great Physiological Chemist, by
J. ;. Houghton, NJ. d., Philadelphia, Pa.
This Is truly a wonderful remedy for in
digestion, Dyspepsia, Jaundce, Liver Com
plant, Constipation and Debility, curing af-
ter Natures own agent, the Gastric Juice.

Pounds of Roast Beef, in about two hours.
out of the stomach
Pepsin is the chief element, or Great Di-
gesting Principle of the Gastric Juice-the
Solvent of the food, the Purifying, Presery-
ing and stimulating agent of the stomach and
intestines. 1t is extracted from the digestive
stomach of the OK, thus forming an artificial
digestive fluid, precisely like the natural
Gastric Juice in its Chemical powers, and
furnishing complete and perfect substitute
for it. BY the aid of this preparation, the
pains and evils Of Indigestion and Dyspepsia
are removed just as they would be by a
f:salthy stomach. II is doing wonders for
Dyspcptics, curing cases If Debility, Emaci-
alton, Nervous Decline, and Dispeptc Con-
sumption, supposed to be on the verge of
the grave. The scientific evidence upon

SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE.
Baron Iiebg in his celebrated work on
Animal Chemistry, says: "An artificial d;-
gestivc fluid, analogous to the pnstric mice
may be readily prepared from the mucous
membrane of the stomach 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"
Dr, Comb, in his valuable writings on the
"Phys'ology of Diges ii H." observes that 81
ammunition of the duequantity of the gas-
trlc juice IL prominent and all prevailing
cause of Dyspepsia; and he states that " n
distinguished Professor of Medicine in Lon
don, who was severely afflicted with this
complaint, finding everything else to fail. had
recourse TO the gastric juice, obtained from
the stomach of living animals, which proved
to be perfectly successful"
Dr. Graham, author Of the famous works
on Vegetable Diet" says: at is a remark
able fact in physiology, that the stomachs of
animals, maceratcd in water, impart TO the
fluid the property of dissoIving various arti.
cies OF food, and of cf1ccting n kind of ar:i6-
ctH digestion of them in no wise different
from the natural digestirc process"
