cessf'il treatment of almost every
species of disease by the use of
lIo(TaVs Jjife llctlicincs,
Is no longer a matter of doubt, as a refer
ence to the experience of many thousand
patients will satisfactorily prove. During
the present month alone, nearly one bun
dred c ases hav? come to the knowledge
.Mr. Moffalt, where the patient has, to al
appearance, effected a permanent cure by
the exclusive and judicious use of the Life
medicines some eiht or ten of these hai
been considered beyond all hope by their
medical attendants. Such happy results
are a source of great pleasure to Mr. HI
I and inspire him with new confidence to re
commend the use ol his medicines to his
fellow citizens.
The Ijife lledicines
Are a purely VEGETABLE preparation
They are mild and pleasant in their ope
ration, and al the same lime thorough
acting rapidly upon the secretions of the
system carrving off all acrimonious hu
mors, and assimilating with and purifying
the blood. For this reason, in aggravate
cases of Dyspepsia, the Life medicines v i 1
give relief in a shorter space of time than
any other prescription. In Fever ague,
Inflammatory rheumatism, Fevers of every
description, sick head ache, heart burn,
Dizziness in the head, pains in the chest,
b latulency, impaired appetite, and in eve
ry disease arising from an impurity of the
blood, or u disordered state of the stom
ach, the use of these medicines has always
proved to be beyond doubt, greatly supe
rior to any other mode of treatment.
All that Mr. Moffat asks of his patients
is, to be particular in taking them 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 lie
hopes to gain credit. It is alone by the
results of a fair trial. 1 the reader an in
valid, and does he wih to know whether
the Life medicines will suit his own case?
If so, let him call or send to Mr. Moffat's
agent in this place, and procure a ropy of
the Medical Manual, designed as a Domes
tic Guide to Health, published gratuitous
ly. He will there find enumerated ver
many extraordinary cases of rurei and
perhaps some exactly similar to his own

SOOTHING SYRUP
For children Teething,
PREPARED BY HIMSELF.
To .Mothers and jYurses.
rffl H E passage of the Teeth through the
gums produces troublesome and dan
gerous symptoms. It is known by moth
ers that there is great irritation in tht
mouth and gums during this process. The
gums swell, the secretion of saliva is in
creased, the child is seized with frequent
and sudden fits of crying, watchings, starl
ing in the sleep, and spasms of peculiar
parts, the child shrieks with extreme vio
lence, and thrusts its fingers into its mouth.
If these precursory symptoms are not spee
dily alleviated, spasmodic convulsions uni
versally supervene, and soon cause the
dissolution of the infant. If mothers w ho
have their little babes afilicted with these
distressing symptoms, would apply Ur
William Evans's Celebrated Soothing
Syrup, which has preserved hundreds of
infants when thought past recovery, from
being suddenly attacked with that fatal
malady, convulsions.
This infallible remedy has preserved
hundreds of Children, w hen thought past
recovery, from convulsions. As soon as
the Syrup is rubbed on the gums, the child
will recover. This preparation is so in
nocent, so efficacious, and so pleasant, that
no child will refuse to let its gums be
rubbed with it. When infants are at the
age of four months, though there is no ap
pearaure of teeth, one bottle of tin
Syrup should be used on the gums, to
open the pores. Parents should never be
without the Syrup in the nursery where
there are young children; for if a child
wakes in the night with pain in the gums,
i lie Syrup immediaiely givesease by open
ng the pores and healing the gums; there
by preventing Convulsions, Fevers, &c.
To the Agent of Dr. Evans' Soothing
Syrup: Dear Sir The creat bent fit
afforded to my suffering infant by your
Soothing Syrup, in a case of protracted
and painful dentition, must convince every
leeling parent how essential an early ap
plication of such an invaluable medicine
is to relieve infant misery and torture. M
infant, while teething, experienced such
acute sufferings, that it was attacked with
convulsions, and my wife and family sup
posed that death would soon release the
babe from anguish till we procured a hot
tie of your Syrnp; which as soon as ap
plied to the gums a wonderful change was
produced, and after a few applications the
child displayed obvious relief, and by con
turning in us use. I am glad to inform
you, the child has completely recovered,
and no recurrence of that awful complaint
has since occurred; the teeth are emana
ting daily and the child enjoys perfect
health. I give you my cheerful permission
to make this acknowledgment public, and
will gladly give any information on this
circumstance.
When children begin to be in pain with
their teeth, shooting in their gums, put a
little of the Syrup in a lea-spoon, and
with the finger let the child's gums be
rubbed for two or three minutes, three
limes a day. It must not be put to the
breast immediaiely, for the milk would
take the syrup off too soon. When the
teeth are just coming through their gums,
mothers should immediately apply the sy
rup; it will prevent the children having a
fever, and undergoing that painful opera
tion of lancing the gums, which always
makes the tooth much harder to come
through, and sometimes causes death.
Beware of Counterfeits.
fcfCaution. Be particular in purcha
sing to obtain it at 100 Chatham st.,
