VEGETA BILE LIFE PILLS
AND PHOENIX BITTERS

ORIGIN OF TIE LIFE MEDICINES
The reader may not perhaps be aware that the
origin of Moiiat's LiG N.edincs was the result Of
n protracted and painful illness Of their Original
tor, Mr.. JOHN MoFFAr, When taken i'll, Mr.. VI.
WIS prosperous and hou!shing merchant in the
lower part of the city; and having consulted and
employed numbor OF our most stiliui physicians
he after months Of Suffering, was prevailed upon
10 purchase the recipe OF the invaluable vegeta-
bic preparation now Offered to the public.
The effect Of the Life Medicines in his own
case was so singular and remarkable, that lie inn
lnediItcly determined 10 offer to the world med
ieine TO which lie not only owed his lite, but lis
happiness. The uniform success which has since
attended tleir administration in every instance,
where fair trial has been given them, has been
attcsted BY thousands, and incontestibly proves
their intrinsic merit.
THE LIFE MEDlClNES-GENET AL RE-
MARKS,
These medicines are indebted for their name
10 their manifest aud sensible action in purifying
the springs and channels Of life, s. enduring them
with removed tone and vigor, & to the undoubtcd
fact that at very early period in their history they
& rescued sufferers from the very verge ofan I'M
timely grave, after all the deceptive nosrums of
tho day, prescribed by physicians, had utterly
failed, in which cases they also permanently Sc
cured that uniform cnIoymont ofhcalth without
which life itsolts but partial blessing. So great
eediud had their efficacy invariably proved, that
1t was scarcely less than miraculous to those who
were unacqualnted with the beautifully philoso
phical principles upon which they were conf
pounded and upon which they consequently act.
THE PIENlX BITTERS arc SO called
because they possess the power Of restoring em-
beers OF health, to glowing vgor Throughout the
constitution, us the Phoenix is said TO be restored
to life FROM the ashes of its own dissolution.
The Phoenix Dtters are entirely vegetable, com
posed Of roots found only in certain parts of tho
western country, which will infallibly cure FEE
NERS AND AGUESj of all kinds; will never
fail to eradicate entirely all the effects Of Mcrcu-
~, infinitely sooner than the most powerful pre-
parations Of Sarsaparilla, and will Immediately
euro the determination of BLOOD TO THE
HEAD never ftil in the sickness incident 10 uJung
females; and viii be found certain remedy in all
cases OF nervous debility and lreakneSs of the most
impaired constitutions. AS remedy for ClrOn-
ie aad infamatory RheunmtiSm, tho efficacy 0
the Phoenix B.ttcrs will be demonstrated by the
Use Of single bottle
The proprietor rcjoices IN the opportunity af
iordcd by the universal diffusion of the press for
placing lis VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES
within the knowledge and reach ofevcry indiy id-
ual in the community. Unlike the host of per-
nicious uackcrics, which boast Of vegetable in
gradients, the Life Pills are purely and SOLELY
VEGETABLE, and contain neither Mercury Anti.
inony, Arsenic, nor any other mineral. in any
form whatever. They are entirely composed Of
extracts from rare and powerful plants, the vir-
tues Of which, though long known to several In
dian tribes and recently 10 some eminent phar-
maceu'ical chemists altogether unknown, t.
the ignorant pretenders to medical science; anc
were never before administered in So happily CT
tcacious combination.
Their first operation is to loosen from Il Goa {,
OF the stomach and bowels, the various implI

Other medicines only partially cleanse these
and leave such collected misses behind as to pro

or sudden darrhGa, with its imminent dancers
This fact swell known to all regular anatomjst
who examine the human bowels after Death anf
hence the prejudice of these well informed mer
against the quaCk medicines of the age The Sc
