aa.,r;,,,, tIat time have maintained high charac-
ts- 4, almost eyery part of the globe for their
traord;narv and immediate power OF restoring per-
feet health TO persons suffering under nearly every
kind of disease to which the human frame Is liable
IN MANY THOUSANDS
of certiicated instances, they have even rescued
sufferers from the very verge OF an unuiley
grave, after all the deceptive nostrun1s on tle day
had utterly failed and to many thousands they
have permanently secured that uniform ENJOY
ment Of health, without which life itself IS but
a partial blessing. So great, indeed, has Their
efficacy invariably and infaFKbly proved, that 1t
has appeared scarcely less than miraculous 70
those who were acquainted with the beautifully
philosophical principles upon which they cona-
pounded, and upon which they consequently act.
II was to their manifest and sensible action in
purifying the springs and channels of life, and en-
DUNG them with renewed tone and vigor, that
they were indebted for their name.
Unlike the host of pernicious quackeries which
boast of vegetable ingredients, the LIFE MEDI.
CINES are purely and solely vegetable; and
contain neither Mercury, nor Antimony, nor
Arsenic, nor any other mineral, IN any form
whatever They are entirely composed of ex-
tracts from rare and powerful plants, the virtues
of which, though long known to several Indian
tribes, and recently to some eminent pharmaceu-
tical chemists, are altogether unknown to the
ignorant pretenders to medical science and were
never before administered in so happily eficacious
q 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 which collect
in the convolutions of the small intestines. Other
medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave
such collected masses behind to produce habtual
Costiveness, with all its train of evils sudden
Diarrhea with It's imminent dangers. This fact
is well-known to all regular anatomists who ex-
anime the human bowels after death ) and hence
the prejudice of these weII-informed men against
the quack medicines of the age. The second
effect of the VEGETABLE LIFE MED1-
CINES is to cleanse the kidneys and the blad-
der and, by this means, the liver and lungs,
the heathful 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 which the VEGE.
TABLE LIFE MEDICINES are well known
to be nfallible.
DYSPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing the
first and second stomachs, and creating flow of
pure healthy bile, instead of the stale and acrid
BURN, HEADACHE, REsrLEssNEss, ILL-TEMPER,
ANXIETY, LANGUoR, and MELANCHOLY, which
are the general symptoms of Dyspepsia, viii
vanish, as a natural consequence of its cure,
Costiyeness, 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.
DiarrhGa and Cholera, by removing the
sharp acrid fluids by which these complaints ara
occasioned, and by promoting the lubrcative se-
ereton of the mucous membrane.
EeVers of all kinds, by restoring the blood TO
regular circulation, through the process of perspi-
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 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 certain remedy for the
worst cases of Gravel
Also Worms, by dislodgng from the turrings
of the bowels the shiny matter to which these
creatures adhere.
Asthma and Consumption, by relieving the
ar-vessels of the lungs from the mucous which
even slight colds will occasion, and which, if not
removed, becomes hardened, and produces these
dreadful diseases.
Scurvv, Ulcers, and Inveterate Sores, by
the perfect purity which these LIFE MEDI-
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 skin, and the morbid state of which occa-
sions all eruptive complaints, sallow, cloudy, and
other disageeable compexions.
The use of these Pills for a very short time
win 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 maady, 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 MafeTid MedteG.
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
FEVER AND AGUE.
For this scourpe of the western country these
Medicines will be found safe, speedy, and GER
tain rsmedy. Other medicines leave the system
