IInIke the host of pernicious quackeries wIlcn
boast uf vegetable ingredients, the LIFE MEDl:
cTNES are purely and solely vegetable; ana
contain neither Mercury, nor Antlmony, nor
Arsenic. nor any other mineral, IN any 10TH
whatever. They are entirely composed OF e4-
tracts from rare and powerful plants, the virtues

tribes, and recently to some eminent pharmacen'
teal chemists, are altogether unknown TO the
IGNORANT uretenders to medical science and were
never before administered in SO happily efhcacous
combination.
The first operation is to loosen from the coats
of the stomach and bowels the various impure
ties and crudties constantly settling round them;
and to remove the hardened faces when coiiect
in the convolutions of the small intestines Other
medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave
such collected masses behind to produce habtuai
Costiveness with all its train of evils or sudden
Diarrhna with IFS imminent dangers. This fact
is weIl-known to all regular anatomists who ex.
anime the human bowels after death and hence
the prejudice of these well-informed men against
the auack medicines of the age. The second
effect of the VEGETABLE LIFE MEDl.
CTNCC is to cleanse the kidneys and the bad-
der and, by this means, the liver and lungs,
the healthful action of which entirely depends
upon the regularity of the urinary organs ihe
blood. which takes its red color from the agency
of the liver and lungs, before it passes into the
heart, being thus purified by them, and nourished
by food coming from clean stomach, courses
freely through the veins, renews every part OF
the system, and triumphantly mounts the BAN
ner of health in the blooming cheek.
The following among the distressing va
riety of human diseases in which the VEGE.
TABLE LIFE MEDICINES are well known
to be infallibe.
DYSPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing the
first and second stomachs, and creating flow OF
pure healthy bile, instead Of the stale and acrid
kind; Flatulency, Loss OF APPETITE, HEART.

ANXIETY, LANGuoR, and MELANCHOLY, which
are the general symptoms Of Dyspepsia, VIII
vanish, as natural consequence of its cure,
Costiveness. by cleansing the whole length
of the intestines with a solvent process, and
without violence all violent purges leave the
bowels costive within two days.
DiarrhRa and Cholera, by removing the
sharp acrid fluids by which these complaints are
occasoned, and by promoting the lubricative re-
sretion of the mucous membrane.
Fevers of all kinds, by restoring the blood to
regular circulation, through the process of Persp-
ration in such cases, and the thorough solution OF
all intestinal obstruction in others.
The LIFE MEDICINES have been known to
cure Rheumatism permanently in three weeks.
and Cont in half that time. by removing local
inflammation from the muscles and hgaments OF
the joints.
Dropsies of all kinds, by freeing and strength
ening the kidneys and bladder: they operate most
delightfully."- on these important organs, and hence
have ever been found certain remedy for the
worst cases of Gravel.
Also Worms. by dislodging from the turniugs
of the bowels the Shiny matter to which these
creatures adhere.
Asthma and Consumption, by relieving the
air-yessels of the lungs from the mucous which
even slight colds will occasion, and which, if not
removed, becomes hardened, and produces these
dreadful Diseases
Scurvy, Ulcers, and Inveterate Sores, by
the perfect purity which these LIFE MEDl-
CTNES give to the blood, and all the humors.
Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Complex
IONS by their Alternative effect upon the fluids that
feed the skim and the morbid state of which occa-
sions all eruptive complaints sallow, cloudy, and
other disagreeable compilations.
The use of these Pills for a very short time
will effect an entire cure of Salt Rheum, and
striking improvement in the cearness of the skin.
Common Colds and Influenza will always be
cured by one dose, or by two even in the worst
cases.
PILES As remedy for this most distressing
and obstinate malady, the VEGETABLE LIFE
MEDICINES deserve distinct and emphatic
Recommendation. 1t is well-known to hundreds
in this city, that the former proprietor of these
valuable Medicines was himself afflicted with this
compaint for upwards of THRTy-FIvE YEARS and
that he tried in vain every remedy prescribed
within the whole compass of the Materia Medica.
He however at length tried the Medicine which
is now offered to the public, and he was cured IN
very short tirne after his recovery had been pro-
nounced not only improbable, but absolutely inn
possible, by any human means.
