PILLS AND P9ENIX BITTERs.
These medicines have long been known and APP
nrec,ated for their extraordinary and immediate
bowers of restoring perfect heah,to persons surfer
ing under nearly every kind of disease to which The
HUMAN frame is liable.
IN m,nv hundreds of certificated instances, they
have even rescued sufferers from the very verge OF
an untimely grave, after all the deceptive nosirums
If the day have utterly failed; and TO many thou
sands they have permanently secured that UNIFORM
enjoyment of health, without which ire user IS
but a partial blessing. So great, indeed, has their
efficacy invariably and n!alby proved, that It mas
anpeared scarcely less than miraculous to those
who were unacquanted with the beautifully phlio-
sophcal principles upon which they are compound

IN their manifest and sensible action in purifying
the springs and channels of life, and enduing them

debted for their name, which was bestowed upon
them at the spontaneous request OF severa 'hu''io
uals whose lives they had obviously saved

ed nv the universal dfnsiun of the daily press, for
placing this VEGETABLE LIFE PILLS within
the knowledge and reach OF every indivIduai IN

so happily etficacious a combination.
Then first operation is to loosen from the coats
of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities
and crudties constantly settling around them; and to

tally cleanse these and leave such collected masses
behind as to produce habitual costveness, with all
i,stran of evils, sudden darrhoea, with Its lml-
nent dangers. This fact is well known 10 all reg
uIar anatomsts, who examine the human bowels

age The second effect ofthe VEGETABLE LIFE
FILLS is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder,
and by this means, the liver and the lungs, the
bealthful action of which entirely depends upon the
regularity of the urinary organs. The blood which
takes its red color from the agency of the liver and
lungs before it passes into the heart, being thus pu-
rified by them, and nourished by food coming from
the clean stomach courses freely through the veins,
renews every part of the system, and triumphantly
mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek.
