DOCTOR,

WE OFFER YOU A COMPLETE SOLUTION OF THE QUESTION OF INFANT FEEDING.

It is universally Conceded that MOTHER'S MILK of good quality is the best nutriment for Infants. This is the nourishment that we enable nursing mothers to supply abundantly.

When our new preparation, NUTROLACTIS, is given to nursing mothers whose milk is scanty, although the breasts are almost entirely dry, it will in the course of two days, or three at the farthest, so increase the quantity that there will be milk enough to completely nourish a vigorous infant; the quality of the milk will be good, at the same time the health and strength of the mother will be improved.

If the quantity of a mother's milk be adequate, but the quality poor, lacking in nutritive elements, the use of this remedy will quickly and notably improve the quality and maintain the quantity until the end of normal lactation.

Physicians are assured that its use is always perfectly harmless.

Formula: Equal parts Galega officinalis, G. apolinea, G. tephrosia.

We are confident that we have reached the HIGHESTDEGREE OF PERFECTION in solving the INFANT FOOD PROBLEM.

Lacto-Preparata.

A Prepared Human Milk perfectly Sterilized and especially designed for Children from birth to six or eight months of age.

Made wholly from cow's milk, with the exception that the fat of the milk is partially replaced by cocoa butter. Cocoa butter is identical with milk fat in food value and digestibility, being deficient only in the principle which causes rancidity. The milk in Lacto-Preparata is treated with Extract of Pancreas at a temperature of 105 degrees, a sufficient length of time to render twenty-five per cent. of the casein soluble, and partially prepare the fat for assimilation. In this process the remaining portion of the casein not peptonized, is acted upon by the pancreatic ferment in such a manner as to destroy its tough, tenacious character, so that it will coagulate in light and flocculent curds, like the casein in human milk.

Lacto Preparata is not designed to replace our Soluble Food, but is better adapted for Infants up to eight months of age.

Carnrick's Soluble Food

Is the Nearest Approach to HUMAN MILK that has thus far been produced, with the exception of Lacto-Preparata.

During the past season a large number of Physicians and eminent Chemists visited our Laboratory at Goshen, N. Y., and witnessed every detail connected with the production of Carnrick's Soluble Food. This invitation to witness our process is continuously open to Physicians and Chemists. All expenses from New York to Goshen and return will be paid by us. The care used in gathering the milk, its sterilization, and the cleanliness exercised in every step, can not be excelled. Soluble Food has been improved by increasing the quantity of milk sugar and partially replacing the milk fat with cocoa butter.

SULPHO-CALCINE.

A Positive Solvent for Diphtheritic Membrane.

It is with great pleasure that we present to the medical profession this new and valuable combination. In over one hundred cases in the practice, and under the personal supervision of one of the most eminent and successful practitioners, in which he tested it, the membrane was dissolved in every instance, save one. This failure was not due to the want of efficacy of the preparation, but to the inability of the little patient's parents to enforce the use of it. Its action is rapid; in the majority of cases cleaning the tonsils and fauces within twenty-four hours, and in only one case of the hundred did it take forty-eight hours to accomplish its entire removal. In a case of relapse with most frightful extension of the membrane all over the whole vault of the mouth, fauces, tonsils and larynx, accompanied with the greatest prostration, the membrane was entirely removed in forty-eight hours. Its medical properties are antiseptic, resolvent, astringent, disinfectant and powerfully

solvent.

It is entirely non-poisonous, and will not injure the most delicate tissues of the youngest child. It contains:-Pure Oxide of Calcium, Flores Sulphuris Loti, thoroughly washed and purified, Benzo Boracic Acid, chemically pure, Oleum Eucalyp tus Globulos, Oleum Gaultheria, Extractum Pancreaticus, entirely free from fat. At a glance we see that Sulpho-Calcine contains, in intimate and chemical combination, all the ingredients which have proven to be of material benefit through past experience, in dissolving the membrane of Diphtheria.

Sulpho-Calcine is used either in the form of a gargle or spray. If as a gargle, it may be used pure or, which is just as well, diluted one-half with water. But if used as a spray, it must be in the concentrated form. This also applies when used with either the swab or the camel's hair brush. If any of the medicine is swailɔwed, no harm will ensue, but on the contrary it will help to relieve the constitutional symptoms, by its antiseptic action, as will be readily understood by a study of its component parts.

Samples of any of our preparations sent to physicians gratuitously for trial.

BOUDAULT'S PEPSINE

The only Pepsine used in the Hospitals of Paris for the last 30 Years. Unlike the various substitutes which, in most cases, are out unscientific or incompatible compoun forced upon the Medical Profession as aids to digestion by extensive advertising, but which, when submi to the proper tests, are found to be useless as digestive agents, Pepsine is constantly gaining in the estern s the careful practitioner.

Since the introduction of Pepsine by Boudault and Corvisart in 1854, the original BOUDAULT'S SINE HAS BEEN AT ALL TIMES CONSIDERED THE BEST, as it is attested by the awards it received at the Expositions of 1867, 1868, 1872, 1873, in 1876 at the Centennial Exposition of Philadelphia, a in 1878 at the Paris Exposition.

The most reliable tests, carefully applied, will satisfy every one that BOUDAULT'S PEPSINE HAS MUCH HIGHER DIGESTIVE POWER than the best Pepsines now before the Profession, and is them fore especially worthy of their attention.

BOUDAULT'S PEPSINE is prepared in the form of Pepsine Acid and Pepsine Neutral. It is sold bottles of one ounce, with a measure containing exactly five grains; also in bottles of 4, 8, and 16 ounces dispensing.

Boudault's Wine of Pepsine

FORMULA OF DR. CORVISART.

Sold only in bottles of 8 ounces.
