Discovered, introduced, and extensively prescribed by Chakles Leslie Brioht M.D., Resident Surgeon to * St. -Mary's -.Hos*-; pital, 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 ajl the essential constituents off 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, while retaining all its extra* j ordinary properties ; and as a specific, sur- j passing all the known therapeutic agents of the day for the speeclj and permanent: cure — , ' Nervous prostration Shortness of breath j Liver complaints . : Trembling ;of the. Palpitation of the .hands and limbs heart ' Impaired nutrition j Dizziness .:■.-.■■•■■■ -Mental and physical Noises in the head depression.- I ..and ears Consumption (in its Loss of energy and incipient *.; or : firsli appetite r ; . :■• , .stageSjOnly) j Hypochandria : Erupti6hs of the skin Female complaints Impaired sight and General debility -..-,;•■ memory j Indigestion r; • , Nervous fancies ; Flatulence ' Impoverished 'blood; Incapacity for study ; Nervous debility in 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 Phosphodyne . is twofold— on < the oue hanii 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 con-, stitutions. 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 quantityand 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 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 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, 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. r The beneficial effects of. the Phosphodyne are frequently shown from the first day of its administration, by a remarkable increas of nervous power, wit ha feeling of vigor and comfort to which the ■. patient has long been unaccustomed. ; Dige stipn 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 action of the Phosphodyne on the organs of nutrition. Finally, the Phosphodyne maintains a certain degree of activity in the previously debiliated 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 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.

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 beneficialremedy, I 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.'
