PEPSIN.

Inc True digestive Fluid, or Gastric Juice
prepared from Rennet, or the fourth stom-
ache OF the Ok, after directions from Baron
!iebig, the great Physiological Chemist, by
}. ;. Houghton, NJ. d., Philadelphia, Pa.
This is truly n wonderful remedy for in
digestion, Dyspepsia, Jaundicc, Liver Com
plalnt, Constipation and Debility, curing af-
ter Natures own agent the Gastric Juice.
,ER Halfa teaspoonful of Pepsin, infus-
Cd in water, Will digest or desolve Five
Pounds Of Roast Beef, in about two hours.
out of the stomach
Pcpsin is the chief element, or Great Di-
gesting Principle of the Gastric Juice-the
Solvent of the food, the Purifying, Prcsery-
ing and stimulating agent Of the stomach and
lntestines. IL 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 rs they would be by a
healthy stomach. II is doing wonders for
Dyspeptics, curing cases Of Debility, Emaci-
alton, Nervons Decline, and Dispep:ic Con-
sumption, supposed to be on the verge of
the grave. The scientific evidence npon
which 1t 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-
g"stIve fluid, analogous to the gastric iuicc.
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 softcncd changed and dipcs,cd.
Just IN the same manner as they would he
in the human stomach"
DIR. COmbr, in his valuable writings on the
"Physiology of Digcs ii H." observes that "a
diminntion of the ducq quantity of the gns.
trio 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 be perfectly successful"
Dr. Graham, author Of the fumons works
on vegetable Diet" says at il remark
able fact in physiology, that the stomachs of
ANIMALS, maceratcd in water, impart to the
nuld the property of dissolving various arti-
ci's OF iood' and Of efiectiug kind of 0r;i6-
ciH digestion of them in no wise different
from the natural digestive process"

DIR. Houghton's Pcpsin has produced the
most mdrreiOus effects, in curing cases of de-

have been given of more than tlco hundred
remarkable cures in Philadelphia, New York
and Boston alone. These were nearly all
desperate cases, and the cures were not ONLY
rapid ana wonderful, but permanent.
