Moffat s Vegetable Life Medicines have been tho- roughly .tested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation ofthe Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heartburn and Headache, Restlessness, Ill- temper, Anitiety, Lan our and Melancholy, Costiveness Diarrhoea, Cholera, evers of all kinds.

In Fever and AUlle, particularl , the Life Medicmes have been most eminently success ole—so much so, that in the Fever and Ague Districts, Physici- ans almost universally prescribe them. ~

All that Mr. Motl‘at requires of his patients is, to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according to the directions. It is not by a Newspaper notice, or by any thing that he himself may say in their favor, that he hopes to gain credit. It. is alone by the results of a fair trial. A
