Gus and fourishing merchant in the lower
part of the city and having consulted and
employed number of our most skilful ply
sicians, 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 40 singular and remarkable, that ne
Immediately determined to offer 10 the world
madeleine to which he had not only owed
his life, but his happiness. The uniform
success which has since attended their ad-
mnistration in every instance, where fair
trial has been given them, has been attesicd
by thousands, and incontestibly proves their
intrinsic merit.
The LIFE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT 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 10 the undoubted fact that at a very early
period in their history they had rescued snt'
fcrers from the very verge OF an untImely
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 vut partial bless
ing. So great indeed had their efficacy in
variabiy 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
ed, and upon which they consequently act.
THE PHOENIX BlTIERS are so called
because they possess the power of restoring
the exniring embers of health, to glowing
xisor throughout the constitution, as the
Phonix is said to be restored to life fro n the
ashes of its own dissolution. The Phoenix
Bitters are entirely vegetable, composed OF
rons found only in certain parts Of the west
ern country, which will infallihiy cure
TEvERS AND AGUES of all kinds; will
scycr ,a,, =, ,r,.,;cate entirely all the effects
of Mercury, infinitely sooner tnau TIC mpst
powerful preparations of Sarsapartiia, and
will Immediately cure the determination OF
BLOOD TO THE HEAD; never fail in the
sickness incident to young females; and Will be
found a certain remedy in all cases OF nerr-
Gus debility and ,veakness OF the most impaired
constitutions, AS remedy for Chronic and
Inanmmatorv Rheumatism, the efficacy of the
Phoenix Bittcrs will be demonstrated by the
use of single bottle.
The proprietor rejoices in the opportunity
afforded bv the universal diffusion OF the
press. for placing his VEGETABLE LIFE
MEDICINES within the knowledge ana
reach Of every individual in the community.
Unlike the host of perncious quackeries,
which boast of vegetable ingredients, the
Lite Pills are purely and SOLELY VEGETABLE,
and contain neither Mercury, Anthony,
Arsenic, ncr any other mineral, in any form
whatever. They are entirely composed OF
extracts from rare and powerful plants, the
virtues of which, though long known TO sew
eral Indian tribes, and recently to some en-.
inent pharmaceutical chemists, are alto
aether unknown to the ignorant pretenders
to medical science and were never before
administered in so happily etticacious COM
bination.
Their first operation is to loosen from the
coats of the stomach and bowels, the various
impurities and crudities constantly setting
around them; and to remove the hardened
tnces which collect in the convont'ons OF
the small intes;ines. Other medicines only
nortially cleanse these, and leave such col
iected masses behind as to produce habItual
costiyeness, with all its train of evils, or sud-
den diarrhoa, with its imminent dangers
This fact is we'll known to all regular anato-
mists. who examine the human bowels after
death and hence the prejudice of these well
informed men against the quack medicines
of the age. The second effect Of the We
GETABLE LIFE PILLS is to cleanse the
kidneys and the bladder, and by this means
the liver and the lungs, the heal,hful action
of which entirely depends upon the rcguiori-
tv 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 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
blooming cheek.

variety of human diseases, to which the We
