to that most disagreeable of disorders, .
TI3JE Z'lILES,
A remedy, the efficacy of which has been
tested by the experience of years, and the
utility of which has in no instance been
impaired from failure to relieve. To
those who have been subjected to this
disease, it will prove, if applied when re
attacked, n sure preventative to its contin
uance, without the hast pain; indeed ma
ny have pronounced it the most agreeable
remedy ever applied. There can be no
danger in its use, as its component pails
are of harmless vegetable matter.
The mother of the subscriber who is the
maker of the Ointment, has been in the
habit of giving it lo her friends and neigh
bors for the last five or six years, and in
no instance to her knowledge has its ap
plication been ineffectual, as will be seen
by a number of certificates annexed, as
well as the testimony of a medical gentle
man who has used it himself and prescri
bed it to the relief of others.
Those who are suffering will do well to
make a trial of the remedy. Its cflh-ary is
guaranteed, and there can be no doubt
but that the disorder may be arrested in its
earliest stale, if no delay be made in its ap
plication. . . directions for use will be found on
: t.oiile.

To Dr. Peters. Sir For upwards of
15 months I have been cruelly afllicted
with Fever and Ague, and during that time
could find nothing (tho' I had applied lo
every thing) that gave me any thing like
permanent relief. At length, however,
your Pilis were recommended to nic, by
one of our best physicians; and I am most
grateful and happy in being able loadd,
that I had scarcely used two boxes when
I found that they had restored me to per
fect health. Since then vaiious members
of my family have used them with equal
success anil consequently 1 feel it my duty
lo apprise you of the fact, and to request
you to -publish this certificate, as I am an x
ions lo add my public testimony to the
almost miraculous viifues of your unrival
led medicine. Rept ctfully ycurs,

rrn II ESE medicines are indebted f"t
their name to their manifest and
sensible action in purifying the springs smd
channels of life, and enduing them with
renewed lone ami vigor. In many hun
dreds of certified cases which have been
made public, and in almost every species
of disease to which the human frame io
liable, the happy effects ef

every form anel dcscrip.ion. Their first
operation is It) loseu IVeun the e-oa.s of
the stomach and bowels, the vaiious im
purities and crudities constantly settling
around them, and to remove the hardeueel
fajces which collect in the convolutions ed
the small intestines. Other nud'n ines
only partially cleanse these, and leave
such collected masses behind as to pro-
eluce habitual costiveuess, with all its
train of evils, or sudden diarrhoea, w ith its
imminent dangers. This fact is well
known to all regular anatomists, who ex
amine the human bowels after death; antl
hence the prejudice of these well informed
men against quack medicines or me
dicines prepared and heralded to the pub
lic by ignorant persons. The second
effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse
the kidneys and the bladder, and by this
means, the liver 5c the lungs, the healthful
action of which entirely depeueb upon the
regularity of the urinary organs. The
blood, which takes its reel cedor from the !
agency of the liver anel the lungs before it
passes into the heart, being thus purifiee! by
them and nourished by t'ooel coming from
a clean stomach, courses freely thro' the
veins, renew s every part of the system,
and triumphantly mounts the banner of
health in the blooming cheek.

FEVER AND AGUE, particularly, the
Life Medicines have been most eminently
successful; so much so that in the Fever
and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni
versally prescribe them.
All that Mr. Moffat requires of his pa
tients is, to be particular in taking the Life
Medicines strictly according to the direc
tions. 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.
