TO THE MEDICAL PROFESSION.

MALTINE

(EXTRACT OF MALTED BARLEY, WHEAT, AND OATS).

THIS PREPARATION

Contains from three to five times the Medicinal and
Nutritive elements found in Extract of Malt.

MALTINE is a highly-concentrated extract of malted Barley, Wheat, and Oats, containing, undiminished and unimpaired, all the medicinal and nutritious principles found in these cereals. By the most carefully-conducted scientific process we are enabled to offer to the medical profession a perfect article, possessing from three to five times the therapeutic and nutritive merit of any foreign or domestic Extract of Malt.

In support of our claims we invite the attention of the profession to the following points, viz.:

FIRST.-In the manufacture of MALTINE the evaporation necessary to reduce it to its great density is conducted in vacuo, at a temperature ranging from 100° to 123° Fahr., while most manufacturers of Extract of Malt resort to "open pan' or low pressure steam boiling, by neither of which processes can the extract be so produced as to preserve the Diastase, Phosphates, and Albuminoids, on which its remedial value so greatly depends, and the product is either of a dark color or of low specific gravity, possessing little virtue aside from the saccharine matter which it contains.*

SECOND.-Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Sulphur, Iron, Magnesium, and Potassium, are essential elements in the food of man, and it is only in MALTINE. containing the combined properties of malted Barley, Wheat, and Oats, that all these principles can be found in the proper proportions: Extract of Malt made from Barley alone is wanting in some of the most important of these elements.

THIRD-Gluten is the most nutritious principle found in the cereals, and is the only vegetable substance which will, alone, support life for any great length of time. It is composed of three distinct nitrogenous principles, together with fatty and inorganic matters, and is analogous to animal fibrin. MALTINE contains twenty times the quantity of Gluten found in any Extract of Malt.

FOURTH.-LIEBIG says: "Wheat and Oats stand first among our list of cereals in combining all the elements in proportions necessary to support animal life. They are especially rich in muscular and fat-producing elements" The only reason we use Malted Barley in the manufacture of MALTINE is that it contains larger proportions of mineral matters (bone-producers) and Diastase. It is deficient in all other essential elements.

We believe that any practitioner will readily recognize the superiority of MALTINE, and would request a trial and comparison of merits with any article offered for similar uses.

As a sure test for Diastase and the Albuminoids, a small quantity should be put in a test-tube or small vial largely diluted with Water, and heated to the boiling-point, when the Albumen, if present, will coagulate, and appear in little flocculent particles throughout the liquid. If the extract remains clear, it is proof that it has already been coagulated by excessive heat, and removed by filtration during the process of manufacturing. Any heat which will coagulate Albumen will inevitably destroy the digestive power of Diastase.

The Nitrogenous constituents of MALT INE have a composition identical with that of the chief constituents of the Blood, and therefore contain nearly every element requisite for the reproduction of the human body.

MALTINE AND ITS COMPOUNDS

CAN UNDOUBTEDLY BE USED WITH GREATER SUCCESS THAN ANY OTHER REMEDY NOW KNOWN
IN CASES OF GENERAL AND NERVOUS DEBILITY, INDIGESTION, IMPERFECT NUTRITION, AND
DEFICIENT LACTATION; PULMONARY AFFECTIONS, SUCH AS PHTHISIS, COUGHS, COLDS,
HOARSENESS, IRRITATION OF THE MUCOUS MEMBRANES, AND DIFFICULT EXPECTORA-
TION; CHOLERA INFANTUM AND WASTING DISEASES OF CHILDREN AND ADULTS;
CONVALESCENCE FROM FEVERS, AND WHENEVER IT IS NECESSARY TO IN-
CREASE THE VITAL FORCES AND BUILD UP THE SYSTEM.

We manufacture the following preparations, the formulas and doses of which are given in our dose-books and on the label attached to each bottle:

MALTINE, with Hops.

MALTINE, Ferrated.

This combination is specially indicated in Anemia and Chlorosis, and in all cases of defective nutrition where Iron is deficient in the system.

MALTINE, with Phosphates Iron and Quinia.

A powerful general and nutritive tonic.

MALTINE, with Phos. Iron, Quinia, and Strychnia.

A powerful nutritive, general and nervous tonic.

MALTINE with Pepsin and Pancreatine.

One of the most effective combinations in Dyspepsia, Cholera Infantum, and all diseases resulting from imperfect nutrition. It contains three of the all-important digestive agents. Diastase being one of the constituents of the Maltine. We believe there are

few cases of Dyspepsia which will not readily yield to the medicinal properties of the above combination, while the system is invigorated by its nutritive qualities.

MALTINE, with Beef and Iron.

One of the most valuable combinations in cases of general Debility, when there are deficient nutrition and a deficiency of Iron in the system.

MALTINE with Alteratives.

In this preparation Maltine is combined with the most valuable Alteratives known, such as Iodides, Bromides, and Chlorides, and will fully meet the requirements of the practitioners in Syphilis, Scrofula, and all depraved conditions of the blood.

MALTINE WINE.

This preparation contains all the medicinal and nutritive constituents of Maltine, less 60 per cent of the transformed starch or glucose, which renders the preparation lighter and more acceptable to some stomachs, and is recommended only in such cases.

MALTINE WINE with Pepsin and Pancreatine.

(Each fluid ounce of MALTINE WINE contains 15 grains pure PEPSIN and 15 grains pure PANCREATINE.)

We can recommend this preparation to the Medical Profession as being the most important remedy ever brought to their notice in all cases of Dyspepsia and Imperfect Nutrition, when the system needs invigorating and replenishing It will be found, we believe, a perfect remedy in Vomiting in Pregnancy, Cholera Infantum, and wasting diseases of children, and in Constipation and Chronic Diarrhoea resulting from malnutrition. It will agree with the most irritable stomach.

MALTO-YERBINE.

(Each pint of the above preparation contains 13 ounces MALTINE, 2 ounces CARRA-
GEEN, and 1 ounce YERBINE.)
With the nutritive, emollient, and demulcent properties of Maltine and Carrageen, and
the expectorant qualities of Yerbine (active principle of Yerba Santa), we offer this
preparation to the Profession with the fullest confidence that it is the most perfect
remedy yet produced in Chronic Pulmonary Affections, Irritation of the Mucous Mem-
brane. Difficult Expectoration, Bronchitis, and ordinary Coughs and Colds.

The Dose of all preparations of Maltine and compounds is from a dessert to a tablespoonful.
We also manufacture a perfectly prepared EXTRACT OF MALT, from Barley only.
MALTINE preparations are sold at the same prices as EXTRACT OF MALT and its combina-
tions, and are put up in half-pint, pint, and five-pint amber bottles; each bottle inclosed in a fold-
ing paper box.
