DE BBIGrET'S PHOSPHODYNE, A Chemical Preparation of Phosphorous, vMh ihe Vegetable Alkaloids'Qumia, Cypnpeam, Xanthoxylin, &c, Discovered introduced, and extensively prescribed by Chahles Leslie Bkight.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 con stituents of the blood and nerve substance and for developing all the powers and functions of the system to the highest degree. It is a'Teeable to the palate and innocent in its action, while retaining all its extraordinary properties, and as a specific surpassing all the known therapeutic agents of the day for the speedy and permanent cure of - Nervous Prostration Trembling of the hands and Liver Complaints limbs Palpitation of the heart Impaired nutrition Dizziness Mental and physical de- Noises in the head and ears pression .... Loss of energy and appetite Consumption (in its mci Hynochondria pient or first stages only) Female complaints Eruptions of the skin General debility Impaired sight and memory Indigestion " Nervous fancies Flatulence Impoverished fancies Incapacity for study or Impoverished blood business . Nervous debibty in all its Sick headache stages Lassitude Premature decline Shortness of the breath 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 re novating 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 organi sation ; for instance, it assists nature to generate that human electricity which renews and rebuilds the 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, vigour, yet mildness, unparalleled in medicine. The Phosphodydne gives back to the human struc ture, in 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. Tke beneficial effects of the Phosphodyne are fre quently shown from the first clay of its administration by a remarkable increase of nervous power, with a feeling of vigour 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 action of the Phosphodyne on the organs of nutrition. . Finally, the Phosphodyne maintains a certain degree of activity in the previously debilitated nervous system j its use enables all delibilated organs to return to their sound state and perform their natural func tions. 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. DR. BRIGHT'S PHOSPHODYNE Is sold only in cases at £1 Is, containing two bottles ; and £2 2s, containing five bottles. Also in family cases at £5, containing sixteen bottles. To be had of all Chemists and Up - Country Storekeepers throughout the Colonies. FULL DIRECTIONS FOB. USE IN THE ENGLISH, FRENCH AND OERMAM LANGUAGES AC COMPANY EACH CASE. SELECT MEDICAL OPINIONS. Sir Charles Locock, Physical Accoucheur to Her Majesty the Queen, stated at a meeting of the Royal Medical and Chirurgical Society that in thirteen cases sf deoility and nervous prostration he had effected permanent cures by the use of Dr. Bright's Phosphodyne. Sir Win. Ferguson, Bart., F.R.S., Surgeon to Her Majesty the Queen, says :—" I have repeatedly pre" scribed Dr. Blight's Phosphodyne, and found it an agreeable and beneficial remedy. I have but one ob jection regarding it, and that is the elaborate process required in the preparation will not allow of the retail prices being within the reach of all classes." Dr. Lancaster, the eminent Coroner, pays:—"Dr Blight's Phosphodyne is calculated to entirely super sede iron, mercury", sarsaparilla, quinine, and cod-liver oil." Dr. R. Quain, F.R.C.P., Physician to the Hospital for Consumption, Brompton, remarks:—" It cannot be doubted that this Phosphatic preparation will hence forth rank foremost in therapeutics ; it generates all the important elements of the human frame, the peculiar character of this substance fitting it for vital uses." Sir T. Lawrence says:—"l have found Dr. Bright's Phosphodyne an excellent remedy in skin diseases. I presume it is by oxydisation."
