MARKS.
These medicines are indebted for their name Ia
their manifest and sensible action 10 purifying the
springs aud channels Of life, and enduing them with
renewed tone and vigor, aud 10 the undoubtcd Fact
that at a very early period in their history they
had rescued sufferers from the very verge Of an un-

was scarcely hess than miraculous 10 those who
were unacquaintcd with the beautifully phifosephi-
cal principles upon which they were compounded
and upon which they consequently act.
The PHGNIx BirTERs are so called, because
they possess the power of restoring the expiring
embers OF health, 10 a glowing vigor throughout the
tconstitoiioa, as the Phmnix is said TO be restored 10

The proprietor rejoices in the opportunity afford
ed BY the universal difusicn of the press, for placing
his VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES within the
knowledge and reach oil every individual IN the
community. Unlike the host Of pernicious quacke-
ries, which boast Of vegetable ingredients, the
Lille Pulls are purely aud SOLELY VEGETABLE, and
contain neither Mercury, Anthony, Arsenic, nor
any other mineral, 10 any form whatever. They
are entirely composed of extracts from rare aud
powerful plants, the virtues Of which, though long
