AYERS PILLS.
1 NEW and s%lngularly successful remedy for the
Il cure Of all Bilious diseases - Costiveness. Ind.
gestion, J~aundice, Dropsy, Rheumatism. FeveTs
Gout, Humors, Nervousness, Irritability, Inaamms
tions, Headache, Pains in the Breast. Side. Rackr
and Limbs, Female Complaints, &c. &c. Indeed
very few are the diseases in which a Purgative Medi,
enc IS not more or less required, and much sick
ness and suffering might be prevented, if a har$-
less but %efectual Cathartic were more freely used.
no person can feel well while a costiye habit of
body prevails besides, it soon generates serious and
0hten latal diseases, which might have been avoided
py the timely and j~udicious use of a good purgatiye.
This Is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and
BILIOUS arrangements. They all tend to become or
produce the deep seated and formidable distempers
winch load the hearses all over the land. Hence a
reliable family physic is of the first imnortance tn
the public health, and this Pill has been perfected
with consummate skill to meet that demand. An
extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians. Profess
sors, and Patients, has shown results SURPRISING
any thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cures
have been effected beyond belief, were they not sub
stantiated by persons of such exalted position and
character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth.
Among the many eminent gentlemen who have
testified in favor of these Pills, we may mention:
Prof. }. M. LOCKE, Analytical Chemist, of Gin
cinnat, whose high professional character is en-
dorsed by
JOHN MCLEAN, Judge of the Supreme Court Of
the United States.
THos. CoRwIN, Secretary of the Treasury.
Hon. J. NJ, WRIGHT, Governor of Indiana.
N. LoNGwORTH, great wine grower of the West.
Also, DR.. j. r. Chiffon, Practical Chemist, of
New York City, endorsed by
Hon, w. L. MARCY, Secretary of State.
WIN. B. Aston, the richest man in America.
S. LELAND & Co., Propr's of the Metropolitan
Hotel, and many Others.
Did space permit, we could give many hundred
certificates, from all parts where the Pills have
been used, but evidence even more convincing than
the experience of eminent public men is found in
their effects upon trial.
These Pills, the result of long investigation and
study, are offered to the public as the best and
most complete which the present state of medical
science can afford. They are compounded not Of
the drugs themselves, but of the medicinal virtues
only of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical
process in a state of purity, and combined together
IN such a manner as to insure the best results. This
system Of composition for medicines mas been found
in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to produce a
more efficient remedy than had hitherto been OBJ
tanned by any process. The reason is perfectly OBJ
yiouS. While by the old mode of composition, every
medicine is burdened with more or less OF acrI-
monious and injurious qualities, by this each indi-
viduai virtue only that IS desired for the curative
effect is present. All the inert and obnoxious quail
tiles of each substance employed are left behind, the
curative virtues only being retained. Hence it is
self-eyident the effects should prove, as they have
proved, mere purely remedial, and the Pills a surer,
more powerful antidote to disease than any other
medicine known to the world.
As it is frequently c~xpedient that my medicine
should be taken under the counsel Of an attending
Physician, and as he could not properly Judge OF a
remedy without knowing its composition, l have
supplied the accurate Formula by which both my
Pect0ral and Pills are made to the whole body of
Practitioners in the United States aud British Amer
lean Provinces. If, however, there should be any
one who has not received them, they VIII be
promptly forwarded by mail to his request.
Of all the Patent Medicines that are offered, how
few would be taken if their composition was known!
Their life consists in their mystery. l have no
mysteries.
The composition of my preparations is laid open
to all men, and all who are competent to judge on
the subject freely acknowledge their convictions Of
their intrinsic merits. The Cherry Pectoral was
pronounced by scientific men to be a wonderful
before its effects were known. Many en-
inent Physicians have declared the same thing of
Pills, and even more confidently, and are will
ing to certify that their anticipations were more
than realized by their effects upon trial.
They operate by their powerful influence on the
internal viiscera to purify the blood and stimulate it
into healthy action remove the distinctions Of
the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of the
body, restoring their irregular action to health, and
by correcting, wherever they exist, such derange-
ments as are the first origin of disease.
Being sugar-wrapped, they are pleasant to take.
and being purely vegetable, no harm can arise from
their use in any quantity
