These Medicines have now been before the
public for a period of FIFTEEN YEARS, and
during that time have maintained high charac-
ter in almost every part of the globe for their ex-
traordnary and immediate power OF restoring per-
feet health to persons suffering under nearly every
kind Of disease to which the human frame is llabe'
IN MANY THOUSANDS
Of certi6cated instances, they have even rescued
sufferers from the very verge of an untimely
rrava after all the deceptive nostruns of the day
had utterly failed and to many thousands they
hoys nermanentIv secured that uniform enjoy
n,ant Of health, without which life itself is but
. martial blessing. So great, indeed, has their
efficacy invariably and infalibly proved, tnat 1t
has appeared scarcely less than miraculous 10
those who were acquainted with the Deau'huily
pbilosophical principles upon which they are COM
ponrded. and upon which they consequently act
f was to their manifest and sensible action IN
purifying the springs and channels of life, and en-
duing them with renewed tone and Vlgor, that
thew were indebted for their name.
Unlike the host of pernicous quackeries which
boast of vegetable Ingredients the LIFE MEDl.
cTNEs are purely and solely vegetable; and
contain neither Mercury, nor Antlmony, nor
Arsenic. nor any other mlneral' III any 10TH
whatever. They are entirely composed OF eX-
of which, though long known to several Indian
tribes, and recently TO some eminent pharmaceu-
ticaI chemists, are altogether unknown to the
IGNORANT pretenders to medical science +; and were
never before administered in so happily eficacious
q combination. H
The first operation is to loosen from the coats
of the stomach and bowels the various lmpur-
ties and crudities constantly settling round them
and TO remove the hardened fRces which collect
in the convolutons of the small intestInes other
medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave
such collected masses behind to produce habitual
Costiveness, with all its train of evils, or sudden
Diarrhna with its imminent dangers. This fact
is wel-known to all regular anatomlsts who eX-
anime the human bowels after death; and hence
the prejudice of these well-nforned men against
the auack medicines of the age The second
effect of the VEGETABLE LIFE MED1-
CTNES is to cleanse the kidneys and the blad-
der and, by this means, the liver and lungs,
the healthful action of which entirely depends
upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The
blood, which takes it's 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 a 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 are among the distressing va
rietY of human diseases IN Whlch tne VEiE-
TABLE LIFE MEDICINES are well known
to be mfalble.
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
BURN, HEADACHE, REsTLEssNEss, lLL-TEMPER,
ANXIETY, LANGUoR, and MELANCHOLY, which
are the general symptoms of Dyspepsia, will
vanish, as natural consequence of its cure,
Costiveness. by cleansing the whole length
OF the mtestines with solvent process, and
without violence all violent purges leave the
bowels costive within two days.
Diarrhea and Cholera, by removing the
sharp acrid fluids by which these complaints are
occasioned, and by promoting the lubrcative Sc
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 Gout in half that time, by removing local
Inflammation from the muscles and igaments 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 a certain remedy for the
worst cases of Gravel.
Also Worms, by dislodging from the turnings
of the bowels the Shiny matter to which these
creatures adhere.
Asthma and Consumption, by relieving the
air-vesses 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 MEDI-
CINES give to the blood, and all the humOrs.
Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Complex
ions by their Alternative effect upon the fluids that
feed the skin, and the morbid state of which Occa-
sons all eruptive complaints, sallow, cloudy, and
other disagreeable compilations.
The use of these Pills for very short time
viii effect entire cure of Salt Rheum, and
striking Improvement in the clearness of the skin.
Common Colds and Influenza will always be
cured by one dose, or by two even in the worst
cases.
PILES. AS a 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 THiRTy-FIvE YEARS and
that he tried in Vain every remedy prescribed
within the whole compass of the MGteriG Medica.
He however at length tried the Medicine which
is now offered to the public, and he was cured ID
a very short time, after his recovery had been pro-
nounced not only improbable, but absolutely i'm
possible, by any human means.
