 and diarrlioca, dysentery, nervousness, bilious- 

 ness and liver complaints, flatulency, disten- 

 tion, acidity, heartbnm, palpitation of the

 rtudy, loss of memory, delusions, vertigo, blood 

 to the head, exhaustion, melancholy, ground- 

 lees ftar, indecision, wretchedness, thoughts of 

 self-destruction, and many other complaints. 

 It is, moreover, the best food for inf nts and 

 invalids generally, as it never turns acid on 

 the weakest stomach, nor interferes with a 

 good liberal diet, but imparts a healthy relish 

 lor lunch and dinner, and restores the faculty 

 of digestion, and nervous and nmsculareiiergy 

 to the most enfeebled. In whooping cough, 

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

 K renders all medicine superfluous by re- 

 moving all inflammatory and feverish symp- 

 toms. 



Important Caction against the fearful 

 dangers of spurinus imitations : — The Vice- 

 Chancellor Sir William Page Wood granted 

 an Injunction on March 10, 1854. against 

 Alfred Hooper Nevill, for imitating " Du 

 Barry's Revalenta Arabica Food."

A few out ofbOfim Cures: 

 Cure No. 52.422 : — " I have suffered these 

 thirty-three years continually from diseased 

 lungs, spittiiifj of blood, liver derangement, 

 deafness, singmg in the ears, constipation, 

 debility, shortness of breath and cough j and 

 dnring that period taken so much medicine, 

 that I can safely say I have laid out upwards 

 of a thousand pounds with the chemisis and 

 doctors. I have actually worn out two medical 

 men during my ailments, without finding any 

 improvement in my health. Indeed I was in 

 ntter despair, and never expected to get over 

 it, when I was fortunate enough to become 

 acquainted with your Revalenta Arabica ; 

 which. Heaven be praised, restored me to a 

 rtate of health which I long since despaired of 

 attaining. My lungs, liver, stomach, head, 

 and ears, are all right, my hearing perfect, and 

 my recovery is a marvel to all my acquaint- 

 ances. I am, respectfully,
