l VEGETABLE LIFE PILLS AND PIHENIX BITTERS- H E S E superlative Family Medicines have long

since acquired an established reputation for direct and invariable efficacy in all the prevalent and ordinary diseases, as well as in many Others of a peculiar and aggravated character. Their virtues are proved by the voluntary testimonials Ofthe persons they have cured, and who accompany their certificates with their names and places of residence These certificates now amount to thousands, being hundreds to each particular kind of disease. The ' embrace the most frightful and in- veterate cases of Scrofula, Pi es, L‘ spepsia, Jaundice, Bilious and Liver ([rfleclions. acute and chronic R eumatism, Asthma, Bronchitis, Scrofu us as well as Mucous Consumption, habitual (.‘ostiveness, Worm: Stomach and Bowel complaints of all kinds, headache, giddiness and nervous debility, eruptive diseases, and the clouded, sallow, unhealthy appearance of the skin, arising from various causes ofill health, Fever and Agile of every variety, scttlcd ains in the side, back, organs and limbs, humors, ulcers, oul breath am inward fever, night sweats, and general weakness and 055 of appelilt’, the mumps, swollenface and gum, affections of the bladder, kid/m , spleen and pleura, and the sickness inci- dental tofenmles, together Wllh very many other maladies which cannot be here enumerated. The certificates of cure in all these diseases are immense in number, and clear, diiecl and cxplicit in description, and coming as they do, in every case, from the persons cured, they are indis- putablc and conclusive in authority.
