is liable.
In many hundreds of certificnted lnstan-
ces, they have even rescued sufferers from
the very verge of an untimely grave, after
all the deceptive nostrums of the day had
utterly failed; and to many thousands they
have permanently secured that uniform
enjoyment of health, without which life
itself is but parta blessing. SO great, in
Iced, has their efficacy invariably and in
lallibly proved, that it has appeared scarce.
" less than miraculous to those who
we're unacquainted with the beautifully phi
osophical principles upon which they are
compounded, and upon which they conse-
qncnlly act. It was to their manifest and
sensible action in purifying the springs and
channels Of life, and cnduing them with
renewed tone and vigor, that they were
indebted for their name, which was bestow-
ed upon them at the spontaneous request
Of several individuals whose lives they
have obyionsl y saved.
The proprietor reioices in the opportuni-
ty afforded by the universal diffusion of the
daily press for placing his Vegetable Life
Pills within the knowledge and reach OF ev-
cry individual in the community. Unlike
the host of pcrnicious Quackeri%s, which
boast Of Vegetable Ingredients, the Life Pills
are purely and soLRLY VEGETABLE, and con-
tain neither Mercury, AntImony, Arsenic,
nor any other mineral, in any form whatev-
er. They are entirely composed of eX-
tracts from rare and powerful plants, the
virtues of which, though long known to soy
eral Indian tribes, and recently to some
eminent Pharmaceutical chmists, are al
together unknown to the ignorant pretend
crs Of medical sience: and were never be-
fore administered in so happily eificacious a
combination.
Their first operation is to loosen from
the coats Of the stomach and bowels, the
various impurities and crudities constant
settling around them and to remove the
hardened lnces which collect in the convo-
iutons of the small intestincs. Other med
icines only partially cleanse these, and
leave such collected masses behind, as to
produce habitual costiyeness, with all its
train of evils, of sudden darrhun, with its
imminent dangers. The fact is well known
to all regular anatomsts, who examine the
human bowels after death: and hence the
preiudce of these well.inlormed men
against the qnack medicine Of the age
The second effect the Vegetable Life Pills
is to cleanse, the kidneys and the bladder
ard by this means, the liver and the lungs,
the hellthful action of winch entirely de-
pcnds upon the regularity of the urinary
organs. The blood, which takes its red
color from the agency OF the liver and the
lungs before it passes into the heart, be-
ing thus purified by them, and nourished
by food coming from a clean stomach,
freely through the veins, reneWs ev-
cry part Vf the system, and trinmphantIy
the banner of health in the bloom
ing cheek.
The following are among the distressing
variety of human diseases, to which the
Veg etabe Life Pills are well known TO be
infaible:
DYSPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing the
first and second stomacls, and creating
flow Of pure healthy bile instead of the
stale and acid kind d;-FIatulency, Palpita-
tion of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart
burn and Headache, RestIessness, Ill.temp-
er, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, |
which are the general symptoms of Dys-
Depsn, will vanish, as natural conse
luence of its cure. Costvcncss, by cleans
ng the whole length of the intestnes
with solYent process, and without vio-
ence all violent purges leave the bowels
,ostivc within two days. Diarrhna and
Cholera, by removing the sharp acrid fluids
Jy which these complaints are occasioned,
md by promoting the lubricative secretion
If the mucus membrane. Fever Of all
;inds, by restoring the blood to IL regular
circulation, through the process OF perspi-
alton in some cases, and the thorough So
ulion of all ntestical cbstructions in others.
The Lie Pills have been known to cure
permanently in three weeks,
md Gout in half that time, by removing
ocal inflammation from the muscles and liga-
nents ofthe joints. Dropsles of all kinds,
~ freeing and strene thenmg the kidneys
md bladder they operate delightfully."- on
hcse important organs, and hence have ever
,een found certain remedy for the worst
ascs of Gravel. Also, Worms, by dislodg-
ng from the turnngs of the bowels and
imy matter to which these creatures ad
lerc. Asthma and Consumption, by rellev-
ng the air vessels of the lungs from the
nucus, which even slight colds will occa-
iou, which if not removed becomes hard
med, and produces those dreadful diseases.
icurvy, Ulcers, and lnveterate Sores, by
he perfect purity which these Life Pills
i've to the blood, and all the humors. SEQ,
