 II that the origin of Mofat's Life Medi scines was the result of a protracted and pain tul illness of their originator, MT. John Moi fat. When taken ill, Mir. M. was a prosper 'ous and fourishing merchant in the lowel part of the city and having consulted ant employed a number of our most skilful phy. sicians, i1S, after months of suffering, was nr. ...saiied upon to purchase the recipe of the Invaluable vegetable preparation now offer. ed to the public.
 T,ha effect of the Life Medicines in his own rnse was 20 singular and remarkable, that he Smmediately determined to offer to the world . noe1;cine to wh hich he had not only owed his fife. but his har rrainess. The uniform success @ ~ which has since attended their ad. ministration in every instance, where lai1 4rial has been given them. has been a!tested by thousands, and incontessibly proves their intrinsic merit.
 THE LIFE MED1crNEs-G 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 undoubted fact that at very early period in their history they had rescued suf. ferers from the very verge of an untimeIy grave, after all the deceptive nostrumS of the day, prescribed by physicians, had utterly failed, 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- variably proved, that it was scarcely less than miraculous to those who were unac- Qua,nted with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they were compound cd, and upon which they consequently act
 THE PHGNIX BITTERS are so called because they possess the power of restoring the expiring embers of health, to glowing vigor throughout the constitution, us 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 only in certain parts of the west ern country, which will infallibly cure rEvERS AND AGUES of ali i, kin kinds vi. never fail to eradicate entirely all the effects of Mercury. infinitely sooner than the most powerful preparations of Sarsaparilla, and will immediately cure tho determination Of BLOOD TO THE HEAD; never fail in the sickness incident Co young females; and will be 1ound certain remedy in all cases of neru- oUs debility Gad sCeakness of tue most Impaired constitutions. As remedy for Chronic dnd I,sCiamnsotory Rheumaiisns, the efficacy of the PhDnix Bitters 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 Life Pills are purely and SOLELY VEGETABLE, and contain neither Mercury, Antimony, Arsenic, ncr any other mineral, in any form whatever. They are entirely composed ot extracts from rare and powerful plants, the virtues of which, though long known to sev- eral Indian tribes, and recently to some em. inent pharmaceutical chemists, are alto gether unknown to the ignorant pretenders to medical science; and were never before administered in so happily efficacious con- bination.
 Their first operation is to loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and cfudities constantly settling around them and to remove the hardened faeceS which collect in the coDvolutionS of the small intesiines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such col lecied masses behind as to produce habitual costiveness, with all its train of evils, or sud den diarrhcea, with it's imminent dangers.- This fact ls we'll known to oil reguiaT anato- mists, who examine the human bowels after death and hence the prejudice of these well informed men against tlle qnack medicines of inc age. The second effect of the VE' GETABLE LIFE PILLS is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means she liver and the lungs, the healthful actioT of which entirely depends upon the regularl ty of the urinay organs. The blood, whicl takes its red color from the agency of thu liver and the lungs before t passes into tn heart, being thus purified by them, an' .nourished by food coming from . clean sto .nnach, courses freely through the veins, re antlY mounts the banner of health in tn .blooming cheek.
