Orsgtss Of the ESfc .Medicisses.


 
 OTfgtse Of the E6fc eMedic6aeeS. gRHE reader may not perhaps be aware .A that the origin of Mofat's Life Medi- cines was the result of protracted and pain. fml illness of their originator, MT. John Mof- Eat. When taken ill, Mf. M. was prosper ous and f1ourishing merchant in the lower part of the city and having consulted and employed a number of our most skilful phy. sicians, he, after months of suffering, was prevailed upon to purchase the recipe or the Invaluable vegetable preparation now offer ed to the public.
 The effect of tho Life Medicines in his own case was SO singular and remarkable, that he immediately determined to offer to the world a medicine to which he had not only owed his life, but his happiness. The uniform success which has since attended their ad- ministration in every instance, where fair trial has been given them, has been attested by thousands, and incontestibly proves their intrinsic merit.
 THE LIFE MEDzc1NEs-GENERAL REMARKS. These medicines are indebted for their name to their manifest and sensible action in pu. rifying the springs and channels of life, and enduing them with renewed tone and vigor, and to the undoubtcd fact that at very early
 
 ferers from the very verge of an untimely grave, after all the deceptive nostrums of the day. prescribed by physicians. had utterly iuiled, in which cases they also permanently secured that uniform enjoyment of health, without which life itself is but partial bless ing. So great indeed had their efficacy in- variubly proved, that it was scarcely less than miraculous to those who were unac- qualnted with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they were compound ed, and upon which they consequently act.
 THE PHOENIX BITIERS are SO called because they possess the power of restoring the expiring embers of health, to glowing vigor throughout the constitution, as the Phoenix is said to be restored to life from the ashes of its own dissolution. The Phoenix Bitters are entirely vegetable, composed of roots found ohiyin certain parts of the west ern country, which will infallibly cure FEYERS AND AGUES of all kinds; will never fail to eradicate entirely all the effects of Mercury, infinitely sooner than the most powerful preparations of Sarsaparilla, and will immediately cure the determination of BLOOD TO THE HEAD; never fail in the sickness incident to young females; and will be found certain remedy in all cases of nerv- ous debility and ,ceakness of the most impaired constitutions. As a remedy for Chronic and InRGmma.ory Rheumatism, the efficacy of the Phoenix Ditters will be demonstrated by the use of single bottle.
 The proprietor rejoices in the opportunity afforded by the universal diffusion of the press, for placing his VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES within the knowledge and reach of every individual in the community. Unlike the host of pernicious quackeries. which boast of vegetable ingredients, the Lie Pills are purely and SOLELY VEGETABLE, and contain neither Mercury, Aniimony, Arsenic, ncr any other mineral in any form whatever. They are entirely composed of extracts from rare and powerful plants, the virtues of which, though long known 10 sev- eral Indian tribes, and recently to some en- inent pharmaceutical chemists, are alto. gether unknown to the ignorant pretenders to medical science and were never before administered in so happily etiicacious com bination.
 Their first operation is 10 loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities constantly settling around them; and to remove the hardened fnces which collect in the convolutions of the small intes:ines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such col lected masses behind as to produce habitual costiveness, with all its train of evils, or sud den diarrhoea, with it's imminent dangers This fact is we'll known 10 all regular anato- rnists, who examine the human bowels after death and hence the prejudice of these well informed men against the quack medicines of the age. The second effect of the VE- GETABLE LIFE PILLS is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means the liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regulari- ty of the urinay organs. The blood, which takes its red color from the agency of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the heart. being thus purified by them, and nourished by food coming from clean sto- mach, courses freely through the veins, re- news every part of the system, and triumph aAtly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek
