O,.ieSss Of slte L6fe Medicines.

Osigise Of flte Life C4eG1tct1ses. VTNHE reader may not perhaps be aware II that the origin of Moffa,'s Life Medi- zines was the result of a protracted and pain. full illness of their originator, Mr. John Mol. fat. When taken ill, MT. M. was prosper ous and hourishing merchant in the lower part of the city and having consulted and employed number of our most skilful phy. sicians, he, after months of suffering, was prevailed upon to pOrchase the recipe of the invaluable vegetable preparation now ofter' cd to the public.
 The effect of the Life Medicines in his own case was so singular and remarkable, that he immediately deterMined to offer to the world a medicine to which he had not only owed his life, but his happiness. The uniform success which has since attended their ad- ministration in every instance. where far trial has been given them, has been attested by thousands, and incontessibly proves their intrinsic merit.
 TRE LIFE MED1cINEs-GENERAL 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 to the undoubted fact that at very early period in their history they had rescued suf. ferers 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 but partial bless in9. So great indeed had their efficacy in- v.riably 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 cd, and upon which they consequently act:
 THE PHOENIX BITTERS are so called because they possess the power of restoring to expiring embers of health, to glowing vigor throughout the constitution. as tne Ph0nix is said to be restored to lie iron the ashes of it's own dissolution. The Phoenix Bitters are entirely vegetable. composed ot ro1ts found only in certain parts of the west ern country, which will infaliibly cure FEvERS AND AGUES of all kinds; will never fail to eradicate entirely all the effects of Mercury, infinitely sooner than the most powerful preparations of Sarsaparilla. and will immediately cure the determination Of BLOOD TO THE HEAD; never fail in the. ssckness incident to young tensdles; and will be, found certain remedy in all cases of neru. GUS debility and sceakness of the most impaired constitutions. As remedy for Chronic and RnAammatory Rheumatism, tue efficacy of the Phoenix Bitters will be demonstrated by the use of . single bottle.
 The proprietor rejoices in the opportunity afforded by the universal diffusion of the press, for placing his VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES within the knowledge and reach of every individual in the community. Unlike the host of perDicious 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 sev- eral Indian tribes, and recently to some em. inent pharmaceutical chemists, are alto 9ether unknown to the ignorant pretenders tD medical science; and were never before administered in SO happily efficacious com. binasion.
 Their first operation is to loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities constantly settling around them and to remove the hardened fseces which collect in the convolutions of tho small intessines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such col lected masses behind as to produce habitual costiveness, with all its train of evils, or sud- den diarrhoea, with it's 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 we'll 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 tho liver and the lungs, the healthtul action of which entirely depends upon the regulari- ty of the urinay organs. The blood. which takes it's 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- uews every part of the system. and triumph antly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek.
 The following are among the distressing variety of human diseases, to which the Ve- getable Life Pills are well known to be in- fallible:
 DYSPEPSIA. by thoroughly cleansing the first and second stomachs, and creating . flow of pure healthy bile. instead of the stale and acrid kind ;-f1atulency, Palpitation of the Heart. Loss of Appetite. Heartburn and Headache, Restlessness. Ill-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy. which are the ge- neral symptoms of Dyspepsia, will vanish ns a natural consequences of its cure. Cost. iveness, by cleansing the whole length ofthe intestines with solvent process, and without violence all violent purges leave the bowels eoaliye within two days. DiGsrh0G and
 CRolera, by removing the sharp acrid fluids bv which these complaints are occasioned and by promoting the lubricative secretions of inc mucous membrane. FeUers of all kinda -.~Ao-;nn Nk.a hlnrA in q rpU1llaP circlIla.
