TO administer remedies for disease, The gene

of the most prolific sources Of disease, suffer
ing. and early death. How many thousands OF
persons there are, at this moment, surrendering
! their constitutions TO the insidious inroads Of
almost every variety Of fnman malady, from
their reluctance 70 incur the expense Of con-
sulling physician, and from their silly pr ju-
dice against the lmpsi simple medicines, unless
sanctioned by me mysic authority Of preten-
dedly learned nrssctipton IL they could see
that prescripiion IN plain English, they won Id
find, in yast majority Of cases, that il ordered
nothing in The world but little rhubarb, or
SIENNA, or jalap. or aloes, mixed with sugar an d
water, and mysihrd With little peppermint,
or some other scented drug aud simple cath

druggist keeps The prescription when the pa
tent gets i'll again, he has again 10 consult the
physician, instead of procuring Tor himself at
mere fraction of the original expense the won
dorlul remedy which had relieved him. ID is
thus that majority Of The population Of every
civilized count suffer disease 10 work lis in
sidious way into their system, because the re-
lief they derive from medical aid is at once ex.
pen,ve, transitory, aud diff cult Of access and
thus is exempifed the memorable confession Of
an eminent physician, that g Prescriptions in
tho Roman language have indirccllykilled more
people than all the Roman armies.'
A medicine 50 compounded that Il will
cleanse the alimentary canal of all It's leculent
Accommodations and membranes, give new
and invigorating action 10 all the viscera that
contribute their agency 10 the digestive lunc-
tons, and, by promoting the insensible perspi-
ration, relieve the'whoe system Of febrile aud
indammatory symptoms must necessarily prove
great blessing 10 mankind, If rendered at a
price which pluces il within the reach of all
classes. If il have an extensive sale, il cannot
fail TO work more cures, aud 10 do far more
general good, than all the members of the med-
cal profession combined can possibly aecpm.
pish within the comparatively narrow lmis of
their private practice. Such a medicine the
public has in MOFFAT'S LIFE PILLs and
PHENIX DITTERS, the efficacy of which are
established throughout the United States, and
voluntarily certified by thousands Of individuals
whom they have relieved aud cured. II is in
vain that the Interested denounccrs of popular
medicine attempt TO exclude these in their in
discriminate opprobrium. Facts beat theories,
and are mere stubborn egen than preiudices.--
Could the most eminent and successful physi-
clan that ever lived collect so many testimonials
of remarkable cures, and Of so extensive an al
deviation of suffering under an almost endless
variety of human diseases, as have been spon.
taneously presented to the proprietor of the
LIFE PILLS and PHENlX BlT1ERS during

be happy to put the question to the test.
