A chemical preparation of Phosphorus, with the Vegetable Alkaloids, Quinia, (Jypripeden, Xanthoxylin, &c. Discovered, introduced, and extensively prescribed byCiiAS. 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, and innocent in its action, wdnle 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 Liver complaints Palpitation of the heart Dizziness Noises in the head and ears Loss of energy and appetite Hypochondria Female complaints General debility Indigestion Flatulence Incapacity for study or business Sick headache Lassitude Shortness of breath Trembling of the hands and limbs Impaired nutrition Mental and physical depression Consumption (in its incipient or first stages only) Eruptions of the skin Impairad sight and memory Nervous fancies Impoverished blood Nervous debility in all its stages Premature decline and all morbid conditions of the system arising from whatever cause. The action of the Plrosphodyne 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 Phosphodvne acts electrically upon the organisation ; for instance, it assists nature to generate that human electricity which renews and rebuilds the osseous, muscular, nervous, membranous, and organic systems. It operates on the system without exciting care or thought upon the individual as to ihe process. It moves the lungs, liver, heart, kidneys, stomach, and intestines, with a harmony, vigour, yet; mildness, unparalleled in medicine. The Phosphodvne 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 Phosphodvne 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 speedv cure by the judicious use of this most invaluable remedy. DU HEIGHT'S PHOSPHODYNE is sold only in cases at L.l Is., containing Two bottles ; and L.2 25., containing Five bottles; — also in family cases at L.5, containing Sixteen bottles. To be had of all Chemists and upcountry Storekeepers throughout the Colonies, from whom Pamphlets containing Testimonials may he obtained. Full directions for use, in the English, French, and German languages, accompany each case. SELECT MEDICAL OPINIONS: Sir Charles Locock, Physician Accoucheur to her Majestv the Queen, stated at a meeting of the Royal Medical and Chirurgical Society that in thirteen cases of debility and nervous prostration he had effected permanent cures by the use of Dr Bright’s Phosphodyne. Sir Wm. Ferguson, Bart., F.R.S., surgeon to her Majesty the Queen, says :—“ I have repeatedly prescribed Dr Bright’s Phosphodyne and found it an agreeable and beneficial remedy. 1 have but one objection regarding it, and that is, the elaborate process required in the preparation will not allow of the retail price being within the reach of all classes. ” Dr Lancaster, the eminent coroner, says : “Dr Bright’s Phosphodyne is calculated to entirely supersede iron, mercury, sarsaparilla, j quinine, and cod-liver oil. | Dr H. Qua,in, F.!!.('. P.. physician to the Tlosj piLil for Consumption, Brouipton, remarks: | “It cannot be doubted that this Phosphatic | preparation will henceforth rank foremost in therapeutics ; it generates all the important elements of thebnimn frame, the peculiar character of this substance fitting it for vital uses.” Sir T. Lawrence siys: “I have found Dr Bright's Phosphodyne an excellent remedy in skin diseases. I presume it is by oxydisation." Professor Syme says The effects of the Phosphodyne in obstinate cases of disease are as ■ astonishing as perplexing.”
