T E S E superlative Family Medicines have long suicc acquired an established reputation for direct and invariable ,efficacy in all the prevalent and ordinary diseases, as well as in many others ofa peculiar and aggravated character. Their virtues are proved by the voluntary testimonials of the ‘ersons 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. They embrace the most frightful and iii- vclerate cases of Scrojiilu, Piles, Dyspepsia, Junndice, Bilious and Litter lifleclians. acute and chronic Rhemnalisni, Asthma, Brant/tilts, SL‘rQ/‘u as as well as [Mucous Consumption, habitual Costir'elmss, IVorms, Stomach and Bowrl complaints of all kinds, headache, giddiiiess and nervous debility, eruptive diseases, and the clouded, sallow, unhealthy appearance of the skin, arising front various causes ol'ill health, Fetter and Agar of every variety, settled pains in the side, back, organs and linibs,hutnors,ulrcrs, oul breath and inward fermyiiight sweats, and general weakness and 055 of appetile, the mumps, swollen/ace and gums, affections of the bladder, kidney, spleen and pleura, and the sickness inci- dental tofemules, together Willi very many other maladies which cannot be here enumerated. The certificates of cure iii all these diseases are Immense in number, and clear, direct and explicit in description, and coming as they do, in every case, from the persons cured, they are indis- putable and conclusive in authority. These incslimable medicine sshould therefore be kept by every family and grown crson in the Union, as they will be found to be not only the best reme ies for disease, but also its most certain preventatives, and the surest renovators of sound, cheerful and elastic health. They are singularly mild and agreeable in their operation, and thouin perfectly effectual, never occasion even the temporary prostratiou and nausea which always follow the use of coarse drastic purrres and the use of ralomel.

HE celebrated Lift: Pills and Pltcenirc Bitters, pre- pared and sold by Dr. Wm. B. Mofi'at, 375, Broadway, New York, may now be said to be the most respectably established and extensively adopted family medicines in the United States. They have not only won the sanction and recommendation ofall the candid and pliilanlhro it: 1 portion ofthe medical profession, who have observed their invaria le elficacyin general derangcnients oftlie stomach and bowels, and their astonishing effects in many varieties of acute and chronic disease, but what is far better, these medicines have recommended themselves, and fully and fairly achieved the distinguished and now certainly pre-eminent position which they now occupy in public and domestic estimation. ' ‘hey are proved by their works, arid make no appeals to vulgar credulity. Ifthc proprietor were disposed to make an iiividious comparison be- tween these self-established mdicincs and any others, he might confi- dently assert and challenge contradiction that there is no medicine known to the medical protcssion, 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 concerning the Life Pills and Phoenix Bitters. Ifit be admitted that suf~ fcrers are the bestjudges as to whether a remedy has relieved them and restored them to health and strength, then is the evidence in behalf of these medicines decisive and irresistible. Dr. Motfat 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 anti residence to the unsolicited 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 ve, ten, twen- ty, thirty and even thirty-five years standing; Rheumatism, both acute and chronic, of the most hopeless character} 'I‘urgescence of the Liver and various other liver complaints; Bilious Cholic, and every conceive: ble variety of bilious affections; Marasmus 'I‘abes, or Decline, and Moras- mus Phlliisic, or Consumption, in more advanced stages than an on record; Dyspepsia, in all its chronic and acute varieties, with its fri ht- ful train of distressing symptoms; Worms of all kinds, both in chil real and grown persons. Dirrhoea, both serious and hilious; Costivenes both habitual and occasional; Fever and Ague, in its three riucipa varieties, and intermittent and rcmitteut fevers, ofall kinds; ypocon- rlriosis,aiid other cxtremcl ' complicated nervous afl‘ections, with nervous debilin in general; Salt heum, Running Scald, and eruptive diseases generally, including Enanthcsis, Eiysi elas or St. Anthony’s fire, and sallow, unhealthy complexion; Palpitatton ol the heart, and Determina. tion ofblood to the head, settled pains in the organs. limbs, back, head and side; affections of the bladder, kidnies, spleen, throat, and pleura; jaundice, dropsy and goat; together with those general affections of the system which arise from complicated causes.
