THE TRUE
DIGESTIVE FLUID,
GASTRIC JUICE

ACH OF THE OK, alter directions OF Baron
Liebig, the great Physiological Chemist, by
US. H0UGHToN, NJ. D., Philadelphia, Pa.
This is truly wonderful remedy for Indiges-
tion, Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Lirer Complaint.
Constipation and Debility, curing after Natures
own method, by Nature's own agent, the
Gastric Juice.

pEpSIN is the enlightenment, or Great Digest
ing Principle of the Gastric Juice-the Solvent
Of the Food, the Purifying, Preserving & Slim
ulating Agent Of the Stomach and Intestines.
It 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 Completeand
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 healthy stomach. tits doing wonders
for Dyspeptics, curing cases of Debility, Emaci-
alton, Nervous Decline and Dyspcptic Consump-
ton, supposed to be on the verge Of the grave.
The scientific evidence upon which it is based
6 In the highest degree curious and remarkable.
Scientific Evidence.
Baron Liebig in his celebrated work on AMI
NAL Chemistry says: Gan Artificial Digestive
Fluid, analogous to the Gastric Juice, may be
readily prepared from the mucous membrane Of
the stomach ofthe Calf, in which various arti-
cles flood, as meat and eggs, will be softened,
changed aid digested, just in the same manner
as they would be in the human stomach
Dr.. Combe, in his valuable writings on the
Physiology Of Digestion, observes that a dimi-
mutton Of the due quantity Of the Gastric Juice
is prominent and all-preyailing cause Of Dys-
pepsia : and he states that a distinguished pro-
fessor Of medicine in London, who was severe
ly afflicted with this complaint, finding every
thing else to fail, had recourse to the Gastric
Juice obtained from the stomachs Of living AMI
mails, which proved completely sueeessful.'
Professor Dunglison, Of the Jefferson College,
Philadelphia, in his great work on Human Ply
siology, devotes more than fifty pages to an OK
animation of this subject. His experiments with
Dr.. Beaumont, on the Gastric Juice obtained
from the living human stomach and from ami
mails, are well known. In all cases. he says,
digestion occurred as perfectly in the artificial
as in tho natural digestions.'
