50,000 CURES WITHOUT MEDICINE. 



TVU BARRY'S DELICIOUS 



\j REVALENTA ARABICA FOOD 



CURES indigestionidyspepsia), constipation, 

 and diarrlicca, dysentery, nervousness, bilious- 

 ness and liver comnlaints, flatulency, disten- 

 Bion.' acidity, heartburn, palpitation 9f the 

 heart, nervous headaehep, deafness, noises in 

 the head and ears, pains in almost every part 

 of the body, tic douloureux, faceaehe, chronic 

 inflammation, cancer and ulceration of the 

 stomach, pains at the j>it of the stomach and 

 between the shoulders, erysipelas, eruptions of 

 the skin, bolls and carbuncles, impurities and 

 poverty of the blood, scrofula, coueh, asthma, 

 consumption, dropsy, rheumatism, gout, 

 pausea and sickness during pregnancy, after 

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

 epileptic fits, 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 

 ielf-destruction, and many other complaints. 

 It is, moreover, the best food for infants 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 whooiiing cough, 

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

 it renders all medicine superfluous by re- 

 moving all inflammatory and feverish symp- 

 toms. 



Important Caution against the fearful 

 dangers of spurirus imitations : — The Vice- 

 Chancellor Sir Willinm Page Wood granted 

 an Injunction on March 10, )H54. against 

 Alfred Hooper Nevill. for imitating "Du 

 Barry's Revalenta Arabica Food."

 Guineas each. Every instrument warranted. 

 The peculiar advantages of these pianofortes 

 are best described in the following professional 

 testimonial, signed by the majority of the lead- 

 ing musicians of the age : — " We, the under- 

 signed members of the musical profession, 

 having carefully examined the Royal Piano- 

 fortes manufactured by MESSRS. D'AL- 

 MAINE & CO., have great pleasure in hearing 

 testimony to their merits and capabilities. It 

 appears to us impossible to produce instruments 

 of the same size possessing a richer and finer 

 tone, more elastic touch, or more equal tem- 

 perament, while the elegance of their construc- 

 tion renders them a handsome ornament for 

 the library, houdoir,or drawing-room. (Signed)
