been given them, has been aiested by thous sands,

/ THE LIFE MEDICINES GENERAL RE
| MARKS.
These medicines are indebted for their name TO
their manifc aud sensible action in purifying the
springs aud channels Of life aud enduing them with
renewed tone and vigor, and to The undoubtcd fact,
that at very early period in their history they
had rescued sufferers from the very verge Of an I'M
timely grave, after all the deceptive nostruins Of
the day, prescribed BY physicians, bad utterly fail
/ ed, in which cases they also permanently secured
/ that uniform enjoyment Of health, without which
4 life itself l. but partial blessing. So great, in
deed had their efficacy invariably proved, that it
/ was scarcely less than miraculous 10 those who
were unacquainted with the beautifully philosophi
cal principles npon which they were compounded,
and upon which they consequently act.

cInbers Of health, TO glowing yigor throughout the

The proprietor relOices In the opportunity afford
ed by the universal diffusion Of The for placing
his VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES within the
| knowledge and reach OF every individual in the
community. Unlike the host Of pcnicous quacke-
] RES which boast Of vegetable ingredients, the
1 Life Pills purely and SOLELY VEGETABLE, and
contain neither Mercury, Antimony, Arsenic, nor
| any other mineral in any form whatever. They
| arerntirely composed Of extracts from and
weIful plants, the virtues of which, though long
known TO several Indian tribes aud recently TO
eminent pharmaceutical chemists, are altogether un
known TO the ignorant pretenders TO medical sci
ence; and were never before administered in SO
happily efficacious combination.
Their first operation is TO loosen from the coats OF
che stomach and bowels, the various impurities and
CTHuilieS constantly setting thSm 10
remove the hardened frees which collect in the
voutions ofthe small iniestnes. Other cledelnes
only partially cleanse these, and leave such collect
cd masses behind TO produce habtua costiveness,
with all IFS train Of evils sudden diarrbea, with
its imminent dangers. The fact is well known TO
all regular natomists, who anime the human bow
els after death, and hence the prejudice of these
well informed men against the quack dlcnes OF the
age. The second effect of the VEGETABLE LIFE
Pulls is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder and
by this means, the liver aud the lungs, the health
ful action of which entire " depends upon the regu
larty Of the urinary organs. The blood which
takes its red color from the agency of the liver and
the lungs before il passes into the heart beicg thus
purified by them, and nourished by food coming
from clean stomach, courses freely through the
veins, renews every part of the 81 stem, and tr
umphantly mounts the banner of health in the bloom

and by promoting the lubrcative secretions Of the
mucous membrane. Ferers Of all kinds, by restor- |

process of pcrspiration in some and the tho
rough solution OF all intestinal distractions IN others
The Lii e Medicines have been known TO Rheu |
matism permanently in three weeks, aud Gout in |
half that time, by removing local Inflammation from
the muscles and ligameus Of the joints. DrOpsies
of all kinds by freeing and streng ihening the kid

Of these inv aluable Pills himself afflicted with
thi complaint for upwards Of thirty fee years. and |
that he tried in vain every remedy prescribed with
in the whole compass Of the Macria Medica. He |
however, at lengih, tried the medicine which he |
offers TO the public, and he cured in a very
short time, after his recovery had been pronounced
not only improbable. but absolutely impossible, by
any human means.
