Origss. of the Ltfc .Meascsnes.

bG A that the origin of Moffai's Life Medi- cines was the result of a protracted and pain ful illness of their originator, Mir. John Moi fat When taken ill, Mir. M. was prosper CuS and fiourishing merchant in the lower part of the city; and having consulted and employed a number of our most skiful phy- aicians, he, after months of suffering, was prevailed upon to purchase the recipe of the Invaluable vegetable preparation now offer ed to the public.
 The effect of the Life Medicines in his own case was so singular and remarkable, that he Immediatelv determined to offer 10 the world :, medicine to which he had not only owed his life, bu, his happiness. The uniform success which has since attended their ad- mtnis,ration in every instance, where fair frial has been given them, has been attested hy thousands, and iEcontestib'y proves their intrinsic merit.
 TaE LITE MEDICINES CENTRAL REMARKS These medicines are indebted for their name ro their manifest and sensible action in pu- rlfyimg the springs and channels Ot life, and Sldullx them with renewed tone and Vlgof, and to the undouhted fact that at very early period in their history they had rescued sui i.rers from the very verge of an un'nney grave, after all the deceptive nostruns of he day, prescribed by physicians. had utterly failed, in which cases they also permanently secured that uniform enjoyment of health, without which life itself is hut a partial Mess, ing. So great indeed had their efficacy in- variablv proved, that it was scarcely less than m. raculuus lo those who were unac- 0ua,ntp.i with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they were compound ed, and upon which they consequently uct.
 THE PHOENIX BIT lEitS are sn called because they possess the power of restoring inc expiring embers of health to glowing rignr throughout the constitution, hs the P!lpnix is said t0 he restored to life trn n the nshes Ot it's own dissolution.

 The proprietor rejbices in the opportunity ntf,rded bv the universal diffusion of the press. for placing his VEGETABLE LIFE. MEDICINES within the knowledge anu rench ot' every individual in the community. Unlike the host of perniciOus QuackericS. which boast of vegetable ingredients, the ].te Pills are purely and SOLELY VEGETABLE. and contain neither Mercury, Antimony. Arsenic, ner any other mineral. in any form whatever. They are entirely composed oi extracts from rare and powerful plants, the NeNh -IN lNrrr eral InIien tribes md recently to some em. inent pharmaceutical chemists, are alto gether unknown to the ignorant pretenders fo medical science and were never before administered in so happily eificacious con- bination.
 Their first operation is 10 loosen from tho ccets of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities constantly settling around them; and to remove the hardened fRces which collect in the cplvvlutions Ot the small intes;ines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such col. Iected masses behind as to produce habituaI costiveness, with all it's train of evils, or sud den diarrhCea, with it's imminent dangers.- This fact is well known to all regular anato- n,ists, who examine the human bowels after death and hence the prejudice Ot 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- W 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 a clean sto. mach, courses freely through the veins, re- news every part of the system. and triumph. antly mounts the banner of health in the hlooming cheek.
 The following are among the distressing variety of human diseases, tO which the Ve- getable Life Pills are we'll known to be in- faliible
