Ahe 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

This is truly wonderful remedy for ini
digestion, Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Liver Com
paint Constipation and Debility, curing af-
ter Natures own agent, the Gastric Juice.

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
lntestincs. 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
Tor 1t. BY the aid of this preparation, the
pains and evils of Indigestion and Dyspepsia
are removed, just as they would be by
healthy stomach. 1t is doing wonders for
Dyspcptics, curing cases of Debility, Emaci-
alton, Nervous Decline, and Dispeptic Con-
sumption, supposed to be on the verge of
the grave. The scientific evidence upon
which II is based, is in the highest degree
curious and remarkable.
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE.
Baron Licbig in his celebrated work on
Animal Chemistry, says: "An artificial di-
gestive fluid. analogous to the gastric Juice.
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 digcsted.
Just IN the same manner MS they would be
In the human stomach"
DR.. Combr, in his valuable writings on the
"Physiology of Digcs ii H." observes that "n
dimlnution OF the ducquantity of the gas-
trlc juice is prominent and al 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 he perfectly successful"
DIR. Graham, author of the famous works
on "Negetablc Diet" says: at il remark
able fact in physiology, that the stomachs Of
animals, maccratcd in water, impart TO the
fluid tho property Of dissoIving various arti-
cles of food, and of cffccting a kind of a-fi6-
c'dl digestion of them in no wise different
from the natural digestire process"
