The most useful Family Medicine ever of

It is perfectly safe, and no child will refuse to take it.
Worms being especially a pt to infest persons of debil

much mischief is often done by the Ordinary worm med

Articles of this kind may destroy worms, but they de

Vermifuge has the peculiar advantage of removing the
general health, without removing the cause. Swaim's
Vermifuge has the peculiar advantage of removing the
cause of the worms, by giving vigour and healthy action
to the stomach. bowels and organs of digestion, thereby
relieving measles, croup, hooping cough, &c. This
medicine, by invigorating theintesnal functions Strenght

cause which creates morbid secretions, will relieve
Bowel Complaints, Cholic, Dysentery, Despepsia, and

As gelerabFamily Medicine, it stands unrivaled, as
the aapplicable to most of the diseases to which children
are subject. Switm's Vermituge will be loubd of some
utility to persons who occasionally indulge in the con
vivality of the table; a dose taken before dinner will
anticipate the effects of neidity of the stomach. not un

Diseases of the Lungs.
VUMEROS, remedies have been offered and puffed
into notice for DISEASES OF THE LUNGS
some of which has undoubtedly been found very usefu
but of all that have hitherto been known, it must be
universally acknowledged there is none that has ever
proved as suCcessful as the •• BALSAM OF WILD_
CHERRY " Such indeed are the astonishing resters—
five and healing properties of this BALSAM. that even
in the worst forms of CONSUMPTION. when the pa—
tient has suffered the most distressing cough. violent pain
in the chest. difficulty , of lirenthing,mght sweat*. bleeding
of the lungs, c and when the moat esteemed remedies
of our"Pharmacopias had failed to afford any relief. and
when Botanic. Homcepathic, and numerous other rem—
edies, had neen used for many months in vain, tbiti
invaluable remedy has Checked every symptom, and
been productive of the most astonishing relief. In the
early stages of, the disease. proceeding. from neglected
colds, termed Catarrahl Consumption, it has been used
with undeviating success. and in many instPnces, when
this disease seemed to have marked its victim for as
early grave,the,uso of this medicine has arrested every
symptom, and r restored the lungs to a state of perfect
health. •
• In-that form of CONSUMPTION, so prevalent a
mungst.delicate yourig females, commonly termed debil
ity or 'going into a decline.' a complaint with. which
thousandsiare lingering, it has also been used with sur
prising suecess. and `nix only possesses the power of
checking the progresi of his alarming disease, but
at the same time strengthens-and invigorates the whole
-system more effectually than any remedy we have ever
possessed.
DO - LIVER COMPLAINT—In diseases of the Liver,
particularly_ when attended with a cough, indigestion or
wandering pains in the side; it has also proved very
efficaciousqind cured many cases of this kind after the
most powerful remedies had failed.
t ASTHMA—In this complaint it also been used
in numerous instances with the most singular success.
It opens the chest. rendering the breathing perfectly
free,arrests the cough, and will seldom fait to give per
manent relief.
irrBRONCHITES.—As a remedy in all Bronichial
affections of the throat, attended with a hoarseness, cough
or soar in the throat, it will alsobe found a very effectual
remedy, and will mostly afford immediate relief if used
at the commencement of theattacir. , ,

winter, it will be found nibch more effectual than any
remedy in use, and when colds settle upOn,the lungs.
causing an intlamation with pains in the breast.difficulty
or shortness of breathing, &c. the use of this Baletam will
suppress such symptoms immediately, and at the 'same
time prevent the lungs from becoming more seriously
diseased
CROUP AND WHOOPING COUGH.—In these
complaints, so common to young children, this Balsam
will be found much superior to the Paregoric Elixer
Syrup of Squilla,and the various COUGH MIXTURES
in common use, as it is entirely free Irom any thing the

EY' AS A FAMILY MEDICINE for many other
compl.tints, this Balsam will also be found particularly
useful Besides having proved an invaluable remedy in
all Pulmonary affections, it exerts a powerful influence
over many diseases depending on a depraved condition
of the system, and those who have suffered from the
indiscriminate use of Mercury. or other deleterious
drugs, that are often compounded in different quack nos
trums, will find it a remedy of great value, rssessing
the power of strengthening and invigora.ing the whole
system more effectJal than any other medicine we pos
sess.
CAUTION TO PURCHASERS.—As this medicine
has already acquired great celebrity, there may prob
ably be some attempts to imitate it, and deceive the
Public with a spurious minute, to prevent which I would
wish all purchasers to observe the following marks of
the genuine Balsam. It is put up in bottles of two sizes
each, having the words WIS'i'AR'S BALSAM OF
WILD CHERRY, PHILADA , blown in the glass. and,
a label on the front with the signature of HENRY
WISTAR. M. - D. without which none are genuine.

r 'VIE perfectly safe, unerring, and successful treat
'went of almost every species of disease by the use
of MOFFAT'S LIFE MEDICINES. is no longer a
matter of doubt, as a reference to the eiper ience of
many thousand patients will satisfactorily prove. Dur
ing the present month alone. nearly one hundred cases
have come to the knowledge of Mr. Moffat, where the
patient has, to all appearance. effected a permaneat
cure by the exclusive and judicious use of the Life Me
dicines—some eight or ten of these had been consider
ed beyond all hope by their medical attendants. Such
happy results are a source of great pleasure to Mr. M.
and inspire him with new confidence to recommend
the use of his medicines to his fellow-citizens.
The LIFE MEDICINES are a purely VEGETABLE
preparation. They are mild and pleasant in their ope
rattan. and at the same time thorough—acting rapidly
upon the secretions of the system—carrying off allacti
moniene humors, and assimilating, with and purifying
the :blood. For this reason. In aggravated cases of
Dyspepsia. the Life Medicines will give relief in a shop
ter 'pace of time than any other prescription. In fever
and-Ague, Inflammatory Rheumatism, Fevers of every
description, Sick Headache, Heart-burn. Dizziness in
the head. Pains in the Chest, Flatulency, impaired ap
petite, and in every disease arising from an impurity of
the blood, or a disordered state of the stomach,t he use
of these Medicines has always proved to be beyond
doubt, greatly superior to any other mode of treat
ment.
All that Mr. Moffat asks of his patients is to be parti
cular in taking them strictly according to the directions.
It is not by a newspaper notice, or by any thing that be
bitiatelf may say in their favor, that he hopes to gain
credit. It is alone by the results of a fair trial. Is the
reader an invalid,and does he wish to know whether the
Life Medicines will suit his own 'mset If so, let him
call or send to Mr. Moffat's agent in this place. and pro
cure n copy of the medical Manual. designed as a Do
mestic Guide to Health, published gratuitously- Hewill
there find enumerated very many extraordinary cases of
cure; and perhaps !tome exactly similar to his own.
