THE FAMILY LIFE MEDICINES.

HE celebrated Life Pills and Phamiz Bitters, pre- - pared and sold by Dr. Wm. B. Moffat, 375, Broadway, New York, may now be said to be the most res ectably established and extensively adopted family medicines in the nited States. They have not only won the sanction and recommendation of all the candid and pliilanthro ic portion of the medical profession, who have observed their invaria le efficacy in general derangements ofthe stomach and bowels, and their astonishing effects in many varieties of acute and chronic disease, but what is far better, these medicines have rccommended'lhemselves, and full and fairly achieved the distinguished and now certainly pre-eminent posnion which they now occupy in public and domestic estimation. They are proved by their works, and make no appeals to vulgar crcdulity. Ifthe proprietor were disposed to make an iiividious comparison be- tween thcsc self-established mdicines and any others, he might confi. dcntly assert and challenge contradiction that there is no medicine known to the medical profession, or named in their books, concerning which so many clear, unquestionable and conclusive evidences of use- fulness and remarkable cures are recorded as those which he can adduce coiiccrningthe Life Pills and Phoenix Bitters. Ifit be admitted that suf- fercrs are the bestjudgcs as to whether a remedy has relieved them and restored them to health and strength, :hen is the evidence in behalf of these medicines decisive and irresmtible. Dr. Mofl'at is in possession of an immense accumulation of» voluntary- testimonials from respectable persons and families in all parts of the Union, far and near, who give their names and residence to the unsolicited statement that they have been completely and speedily cured of the following diseases, and of many others not here enumerated, by these Life Medicines alone, when other medicines had been long employed in vain, viz: Scrofula, in its most dreadfully advanced and destructive stages, when large ortions of the flesh and bones of the face had been destroyed ; Piles of five, ten, twen- ty, thirty and even thirty-five 'ears standing; Rheumatism, both acute and chronic, of the most hope 855 character; Turgescence of the Liver, and various other liver complaints; Bilious Cholic, and every conceivap ble variet of bilious affections; Marasmus Tabes, or Decline, and Mans- mus Phthisic,or Consumption, in more advanced stages than any on record; D s psia, in all its chronic and acute varieties, with its fri t- ful traino distressing symptoms; \Vorms of all kinds, both in chil ren and grown persons. irihoea,hoth serious and bilious; Costiveness‘ both habitual and occasional ; Fever and Ague, in its three rincipa'l varieties, and intermittent and remittent fevers, of all kinds; ypocoiip driosis, and other extremely complicated nervous afiections, with nervous
