Free from all Mineral Poisons.

The great popularity which MOFFAT'SL LIFE
PILLS and PHOENIX BlTTERS have attained
in consequence of the extraordinary cures ef-
fected by their use, renders it unnecessary for
the proprietor to enter into a particular analy-
sis of their medical virtues or properties.-
Having been more than twenty years before
the public, and having the united testimony
of more than Three Millions Of persons who
have been restored to the enjoyment Of perfect
health by them, it is believed that their repu-
tation as the best vegetable medicine now be-
fore the public, admits of no dispute. In al
most every city and village in the United
States, there are many who are ready to testify
their efficacy in removing disease, and Civ:
into the whole system renewed v'gtr and
health.
In cases Of Scrcfula, Ulcers, Scurvy, or Ernp.
tions of the skin, the operation OF the LIFE
MEDICINES is truly astonishing often remov-
ing, in q few days, every vestige OF these loath'
some diseases, by their purifying effects on the
blood. Bilious Fsvers, Fever and Ague, Dgspep'
sin, Dropsy, Piles, and in short, most all diseases,
soon yield to their curative properties. No
family should be without them, as by their
timely use much suffering and expense may &C.
saved. Prepared BY ...@.-,
