Pilts,-as a remedy for this most distressing and
obstinate mslady the Vegetable Life Pills deserve
a distinct and e~mphaiicr recommendation. Itis we'll

Of these invaluable Pills W as himself afflicted with
this complaintfo for upw ards of thirty fire years. and
that he tried in vain every remedy prescribed with
in the whole compass Of the Matcria Medica. He
however, at length, tried the medicine which he
now offers TO the public, and he was cured in very
short time, after his recovery had been pronouuced
not only improbable, but absolutely impossible, By
any human means.

be particular IN taking the Life Medicines strictly

established by the annual bills Of mortality, that one
half Of the children born, are cut of before attaining
seven years Of age, and the fruitful source Of this
mortality is found TO exist in that foul state of the
stomach and bowels which produces the generation
Of Worms. As the safe restoreT ofIntantiBe Health,
