Patent Medicines Protected by Royal Letters patent — dated October 11, 1869. UNDER DISTINGUISHED PATRONAGE. T\R BRIGHT'S PHOSPHODYNE. A chemical preparation of Phosphorus, with the Vegetable Alkaloids, Quinia, Cypripeden, Xanthoxylin, &c. Discovered, introduced, and extensively prescribed by Chas. Leslie Bright, M.D., Resident Surgeon to St. Mary's Hospital, London. This Phosphatic combination is pronounced by the most eminent members of the medical profession to be unequalled for its power in replenishing the vitality of the body, by its supplying all the essential constituents of the blood and nerve substance, and for developing all the powers and functions of the system to the highest degree. It is agreeable to the palate, aud innocent in its action, while retaining all its extraordinary properties ; and as a specific, surpassing all the known therapuetic agents of the day for the speedy and permanent cure of : Nervous prostration Shortness of breath Liver complaints Trembling of the hands Palpitation of the heart and limbs Dizziness Impaired nutrition Noises in the head and Mental and physical deears predion Loss of energy and ap- Consumption (in its inpetite Hypochondria _ Female complaints General debility Indigestion Flatulence cipient or first stages Female complaints Eruptions of the skin General debility Impairad sight and meTndigestion mory Flatulence Nervous fancies Incapacity for study or Impoverished blood business Nervou3 debility in all Sick headache its stages Lassitude Premature decline and all morbid conditions of the system arising from whatever cause. The action of the Phosphodyne is twofold—on the one hand increasing the principle which constitutes nervous energy, and on the other the most powerful blood and flesh generating agent known ; therefore, a marvellous medicine for renovating impaired and broken-down constitutions. It quickly improves the function of assimilation to such a degree, that where for years an emaciated, anxious, cadaverous, and semi-vital condition has existed, the flesh will rapidly increase in quantity and firmness, and the whole system return to a state of robust health. The Phosphodyne acts electrically iipon the organisation ; for instance, it assists nature to generate that human electricity which renews and rebuilds the osseou3, muscular, nervous, membranous, and organic systems. It operates on the system without exciting cire or thought upon the individual as to the process. It moves the lungs, liver, heart, kidneys, stomach, and intestines, with a harmony, vigour, yet mildness, unparalleled in medicine. The Phosphodyne gives back to the human structure, in a suitable form, the phosphoric or animating element of life, which has been wasted, and exerts an important influence directly on the spinal marrow and nervous system, of a nutritive, tonic, and invigorating character ; maintaining that buoyant energy of the brain and muscular system which renders the mind cheerful, brilliant, and energetic, entirely overcoming that dull, inactive, and sluggish disposition which many persons experience in all their actions. The beneficial effects of the Phosphodyne are frequently shown from the first day of its administration, by a remarkable increase of nervous power with a feeling of vigor and comfort to which the patient has long been unaccustomed. Digestion is improved ; the appetite increases wonderfully ; the bowels become regular; the eyes brighter ; the skin clear and healthy ; and the hair acquires strength, showing the importance of the Phosphodyne on the organs of nutrition. Finally, the Phosphodyne maintains a certain degree of activity in the previously debilitated nervous system ; its use enables all debilitated organs to return to their sound state and perform their natural functions. Persons suffering from Nervous Debility, or any of the hundred symptoms which this distressing disease assumes, may rest assured of an effectual and even speedy cure by the judicious use of this most invaluable remedy. M BKIGHT'S PHOSPHODYNE is sold only in cases at L. 1 Is., containing Two bottles ; aud L.2 25., containing Five bottles; — also in family cases at L.5, containing Sixteen bottles. To be had of all Chemists aud upcountry Storekeepers throughout the Colonies. Full directions for me, in the English, French, and German languages, accompany each case. SELECT MEDICAL OPINIONS!

Dr R, Quain, F.R.C.P.. physician to the Hos pital for Consumption, Brompton, remarks : - "It cannot bo doubted that this Phosphatii preparation will henceforth rank foremost ii therapeutics ; it generates all the important ele meats of the human frame, the peculiar charactc of this substance fitting it for vital uses."
