MOFFAT"S LIFE MEDICINES

NTOFFAT'S LIFE MEDICINES
lVA EXAMINATION. Whom the
most important functions of life are sus-
pended, and those who are invalids by ill.,
herltance or imprudcnce are reduced 10 a
deplorable state Of nervous debility, they
should not even then despair. for it is not
in despair that relief can be found. No.
Let them first look around, and, laying
aside all prejudices, ask themselves this
questiou-''lf my physician cannot help
me. is his reputed skill my only resort?"
Ferhaps at that moment the heading of
this advertisement, 'Monal's Life Medi-
%cines,' would catch the eye and were they
in truth Invested Of foolish prejudlccs, they
might perhaps, be induced 10 inquire
whether Mr.. Moffat's theory and tre1tmen,
of diseases differed from that of Their own
physicians. They would then learn that it
did differ, and very widely, and with most
happy results, TOO.
lfthey pursued their inquiries still fur
Their, they would find that all practising
physicians of the present day prescribe
MERCURY, in some form, for almost ev.
cry disease. and they would learn, too, that
mercurlal medicines, though they give pres.
cnt relief, undermine the constitution, and
always leave the patient in a prccarious
state of health.
a GOOD vEGETAB LIE MEDICINE is just the
reverse OF all this. For hundreds of wears
before that scourge Of mankind, 'Mercury,'I
was employed in the healing art, Pbysi.
bible recommends as the 'skilful physician
he who prepnreth his medicines from herbs.
Witness Eccleslasticus, chap. xii.
y. 3. The shiJfui physician shall III up
his head; and in The sight Of The great men
he shat be in admiration.
Z. 4. For he hath prepared his medicines
out Of Qte HERBS IF The earth, and he
that is aDise wiU not abhor them.
WoBaEs Vegetabie Life Medicines pos
sess qualities of the most mild and benef.
clal nature. They are composed of arti-
Giles the most ami pu!rescent,, combined with
ingredients known as the only certain an.
tidote for fevers of every Descriptions
When the disease is produced either from
cold, obstruction, bad air, swompy and
camp situations, or putrid miasmi whether
malignant or epidemic, or by other causes,
these medicines are certain in their opera
ton or effects. They are possessed Of pc
culIar qualities which not only expel all
disease, but OF the same time restore and
!nvigorate the system. When first taken
into the stomach, they Immediately diffuse
themselves like vapor through every pore.
producing effects al once delightful sanitary
end permanent. When the spark Of life
begins to grow dim, the circulation languld.
and the faculties paralyZeG, these medicines
are found to give a tone to the nerves, ex-
hllerate the animal spirits, invigora,e the
body, and re-animate the whole man.
The LIFE MEDICINES have also been
used with the most happy success in Ner-
vous and Dyspeptic diseases, Consumption,
Asthma, Liver Complaint, Rheumatism.
(chronIc and i~nflammatory) Dropsies, &c.
&c.
