A Chemical Preparation of Phosphorus, with the Vegetable Alkaloids, Quiiiia, Cypripeden, Xanthoxylin, &c. : Discovered, introduced, and extensively prescribed by Cuakles Leslie Bkioht, I 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 thebody, by, its jsupplying all : the essential constituents of the blood, and nerye, 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, while retaining, all its extraordinary properties ; and as a opecific, surpassing all the known therapeutic' agents of the day for the speed j' and permanent cure of— . ... .: Nervous prostration Shortness of breath Liver complaints . . Trembling of the Palpitation of the hands and limbs heart Impaired nutrition Dizzmess . ... .Mental and- physical Noises iii the head' depression and ears Consumption (in. its Loss of' energy arid incipient' or first appetite stages only) : Hypochandria Eruptions of the skin Female complaints Impaired sight >and General debuity -rr memory Indigestiori Rerybus fancies Flatulence Impoverished, blood , Incapacity for study Nervous debility . iri or business all its stages Sick headache Premature decline Lassitude and all morbid conditions of. the system arising from whatever cause. The action of the Pnosphodyne.is twofold— on "the one hand increasing the principle which •constitutes nervous : eri>rgy, r arid' on the ; other the most powerful- blood and flesh 'generating 1 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 upon the organisation ; for instance, it assists nature to generate that huniah 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 the process. It moves the; lungs, liver, heart, kidneys, stomach, and intestines, with a harmony, vigor, yet mildness, unparalleled in medicine. • , ; The Phosphodyne gives. back to the human structure, ma suitable form, the phosphoric or animating element of life, which has been wasted, and exerts an important influence directly on the spinal marrow and nervpu's system, of a nutritive, tonic, and invigorating character; maintaining that buoyant energy of the brain arid 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. v. , . .., ' 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 whiek the patient has long been unaccustomed. Digestion is improved, the appetite increases wonderfully, the .bowels become regular, the eyes brighter; r the skin clear and healthy, and the hair acquires strength, showing the importance, of the action of the Phosphodyne on the organs of nutrition. .* , Finally, the Phosphodyne maintains a certain degree of activity in the previously debiliated nervous systetri ; 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 symptons which, this distressing disease assumes, may rest, assured of an effectual and even speedy, cure by the judicious use of this most invaluable remedy.
