60,000 CURES WITHOUT MEDICINE. 



DU BARRY'S DELICIOUS 

 REVALENTA ARABICA FOOD 

 CURES indigestion tdyepepsia), constipation 

 and diarrlnoea, dysentery, nervousness, bilious- 

 ness and liver complaints, flatulency, disten- 

 sion, acidity, heartburn, palpitation of the 

 heart, nervous headacber, deafness, noises in 

 the head and ears, pains in almost every part 

 of the body, tic douloureux, faceoche, chronic 

 inflammation, cancer and ulceration of the 

 ■tomach, pains at the pit of the stomach and 

 between the shoulders, erysipelas, eruptions of 

 the skin, boils and carbuncles, impurities and 

 poverty of the blood, scrofula, cough, asthma, 

 consumption, dropsy, rheumatism, gout, 

 nausea and sickness during pregnancy, after 

 eating, or at sea, low spirits, spasms, cramps, 

 epileptic its, spleen, general debility, inquie- 

 tude, sleeplessness, involuntary blushing, pa- 

 ralysis, tremors, dislike to society, unfitness for 

 study, loss of memory, delusions, vertigo, blood 

 to the head, exhaustion, melancholy, ground- 

 less fear, indecision, wretchedness, thoughts of 

 self-destruction, and many other complaints. 

 It is, moreover, the best food for inf!;utB and 

 invalids generally, as it never turns acid on 

 the weakest stomach, nor interferes with a 

 good liberal diet, but imparts a healthy relish 

 for lunch and dinner, and restores the faculty 

 of digestion, and nervous and muscular energy 

 to the most enfeebled. In whooping cough, 

 measles, small-pox, and chicken or wind pox, 

 it renders all medicine superfluous by re- 

 moving all inflammatory and feverish symp- 

 toms. 



Important Caction against the fearful 

 dangers of spurious imitations : — The Vice- 

 Chancellor Sir William Page Wood granted 

 an Injunction on March 10, 1854, against 

 Alfred Hooper Kevill. for imitating "Du 

 Barry's Revalenta Arabica Food."
