THESE MEDICINES stand in the highestes-

years successfully p~racticed by DR.. Sicard in this

DR.. Sicard's long standing as a practitioner in the

eases Of the above nature, renders it unnecessary TO
say more on the subject.
As there are, no doubt, many persons who will
attempt to counterfeit the above Medicines, in con-
sequence of their great success, this is to warn the
public nor TO purchase any Medicines purporting
to be his, except from authorized agents. Itis or

timore. Accompanying each package are full d.
rections for the use of the same.

TO THE PUBLIC.

FNHE amount Of bodily and mental misery ari-
sing from a neglect of small complaints is in
calculable, and 1t is therefore Of the utmost impor-
lance that a strict attention TO the least and most
triiling bodily infirmities should be had; for disea-
ses of the body invariably affect the Kind. MoE
fats Vegetable Life Medicines, in every instance
where they have been thoroughly used, have trium-
Pied o0er disease in almost all ttdiversiied forms.
The salutary effects of the Life Medicines have, in
fact, been so universally experienced, that in the
short space of three years, they have become fully
established asthe most easy, safe and perfect mode
OF treatment ever offered To the public.
1t is unnecessary, here, for Mr.. MoiIat to reca-
pitulate all the reasons which have Induced him TO
arrive at this conclusion. Il is sufficient for him
to say, that the disinterested testimony of his fell
low.citizens who have been induced TO use the Life
Medicines will freely be offered to any one who
may feel disposed to call at his Office, 367 Broad.

tiers. voluntarily proflered by his patients. the re-
ceipt and pefusai of whichh has given him more plea
sure than all the wealth of the East could confer.
The reader may not perhaps be aware that the
origin Of Meffat's Life Medicines was the result Of
a protracted and painful illness Of their originator,
Mr.. JOHN MorfAr. When taken i'll, MIR. NJ. was
a prosperous and aoarishing merchant in the lower
part OF the city and having consulted and employ
ed a number OF our most skilful physicians; he, af
ter months Of suffering, was prevailed upon TO pur-
chase the recipe of the invaluable vegetable pre- pa
ration which he now offers to the public.
The effect Of the Life Medicines in his own case
was unparalleled in the history Of Medical expert
ence; aud he Immediately determined TO offer to
the world a Medicine to which he not only owed
his life, but his happiness. The Uniform success
which has since attended their administration in
every instance where a fair trial has been given
them, has been attested by thousands and incontes-
tibly proves their intrinsic merit.
The Life Medicines can be taken with safety by
persons Of any age; and The feeble, the inirm. the
nervous, and the delicate, are strengthened by their
operations, because by their prompt and proper ac-
tion upon the secretions Of the system, and their
assimilation with and publication ofthe blood, they
clear the system ofail bad humors, quiet all nervous
irritabtlity, and ihyariable produce sound health.
For full particulars relative to the various disea.
sea and modes OF treatment with the Life Medicines,

Peters Pills.

VNHE unparalleled reputation which P~eteTs'Pills,
L have acquired a. a Medical Restoratics is the
mos, unquesiionable p~reofthat can be given, OF their
Immense importance t@-te afflicted in almost every
class OF diseases. The hamber of letters received
from Patients recovered through their means, is re-
ally prodigions, aud the complaints they have cured
are almost as varied a. they are numerous. But
still there are some in which they are more espe-
ciaily beneficial than in others; aud among those
may be named the too often fatal complaints Of the
stomach and bowels, such as Chotic, FYataation, and
Indigestion, for which they are not only a certain
bat Nh immediate cure.
1t 10 weiiknown thatfrom the disarrangement OF
the stomach and bowels, arise nine-tenths OF all the
maiadies ofadult and declining life that this is the
foundation OF JataeHcg, s~paSmodic pains, tfdiges-
ton, Toss ~fappstite, &c. and that those IN their
turn give birth to Uropsy, Lirer Complaint, Con-
sumption, and habitual Iolcness Of spirits therefore
Peters Pills being the very best medicine which
has ever been discovered Tor the ~iacIpient diseses OF
the intestiness are necessarily the surest preventa-
tiTes OF those dreadful, and also general disorders
which embitter mature life aud drag so many mil
lions TO u~ntimcIy graves.
In speaking thus, DR.. Peters arrogates nothing to
himself that has not been conceded by the public.
He is no needy quack or unknown Spectator, who
comes before the world as hts own herald and wit
ness; bat is placed in a responsibility of situation BY
the patronage which he has enjoyed for years, and
which is increasing 10 an extent unprecedented in
the annnls of medicine, that makes him careful TO
assert nothing which is not borne out by the most
Inialib!e proof and hence he does not fear 10 be put
to the test in any thing which he has promised res.
pccting his Pills,
DR.. Peters is most happy to be able 10 state on
the authority Of several regular Physicians that
wherever his Vegetable Pills have been introduced,
they have almoit superceded the adoption Of mer-
curial experiments, for their peculiar faculty in swee.
,eniug the blood and stimulating il TO expel all nox.
ious juices, and in giving strength and tone TO the
nerves, prevents diseasefrom acquiring that strength
which must be got under, if at all, by dangerous
remedies.

QUACKS AND THEIR DESTRUC-
TIVE NOSTRUMS.

V'HE united testimony Of physicians, throughout
Il the United States, has fully proved the fact that
Pefers's Vegetable Pills are the only true Vegetable
Pttis, which will stand the test Of Anatization-
hence the proprietor would most earnestly urge them
TO the notice ofthosc who have been in the habit of
using as CathaYtics or Aperieats, the destructive and
Irritating Qagck Pals, SO generally advertised, and
which are at best but slow customers of the vital
functions and mlrderous agents, even TO the most
hale. ii IS true, most ofthem produce a p~ursatiye
effect, and sometimes transient relief, but in most
cases they injure the digestive organs, and an habit.
ual resort to them must terminate in confirmed dys-
pepsia,
ms true, that CaMGriic and dperienf Medicines
are often required, hat the incest discrimination
should always be observed in the selection, and
ifthis be done nothing injurious can result, from their
use.
To produce this much desired result, DIR Peters
has made it his study for several years, and feels
proud to say he has at length succeeded, far beyond
his expectations. The object of his Pills are 10 sn.
perscde the necessity of a frequent recourse TO inlu-
rions purgailves. and TO offer a medicine safe, certain,
and pleasant in its operation.
