Fever and Ague,

nom which mankind suffer over a large part Of
the globe, is the consequence Of diseased action
in the system, induced BY the poisonous miasm Of
vegetable decay. This exhalation is evolved by
the action Of solar heat on wet soil, and rises with
the watery yapor from it. While the sun is below
the horizon this yapor fingers near the earths sur
face, aud the virus is taken with It through the
lungs into the blood. There il acts as an irritating
poison on the internal yiscera and excretng organs
Of the body The liver becomes torpid and iails 70
secrete not only this virus, but also the BILE nom
the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate
in the circulation, and produce violent eonsutu-
tional disorder. The spleen, the kidneys, and the
stomach sympathize with the liver, and become
disordered also. Finally, the instinct OF our Or
ganism, as If in an attempt to expel the noxious
Infusion concentrates the whole blood OF the body
in the internal excretores to force them to cast II
out. The blood leaves the surface, and rushes to
the central organs with cOngestiye violence. This
Is the CHILL But in this effort tit fails. Then tho
FEVER follows, in which the blood leaves the CEN
trail organs and mshes to the surface, as if in
another effort to eXpel the irritating poison through
that other great excretory skin. In this
also it fails, and the system abandons the attempt
exhausted, and waits for the recovery OF strength
TO repeat the hopeless effort another day. These
are the fits or paroxysms Of FEVER AND AGUR.
Such constitutional disorder will Of course under
mine the health If it is not removed.
We have labOred to find, and have found, an
antidote.
M'arthur Democrat. (McArthur, Vinton County, Ohio) 1853-1865, 1858-09-23
Ayers Ague Cure,

which neutrazes this malarious poison in the
blood and stimulates the liver to expel II from the
body AS it should, so it does cure this affecting
disorder with perfect certainty. And It does more,
or rather does what is Of more service to those sub
iect to this infection. II taken in season 1t expels
Il from the system as ii is absorbed and thus keeps
those who use it free from its attacks; keeps tho
system in health although exposed to the disease
Consequently II not only cures, but protects from,
the great variety Of affections which are induced
by this malignant influence, such as Remittent
Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious
Fevers, Neuralgia, rheumatism, Gout, Blindness,
Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpita-
tions, Painful Affections Of the Spleen, Mysteries,
Cello, Paralysis, and Painful Affections Of the
Stomach and Bowels, all Of which, when arising
from this cause, will be found to assume more or
less the intermittent type. This "AGUB CURE
removes the cause Of these arrangements and cures
the disease.
This it accomplishes by stimulating the excre.
tories TO expel the virus from the system and
these organs by degrees become habited to do this
their Office Of their own accord Hence arises what
we term acclimatation. Time may accomplish the
same end but often life is not long enough, or is
sacrificed in the attempt while this AGUE Cur" "
does it at once, and with safety. We have great
reason to believe this is a surer as well as safer
remedy for the whole class Of diseases which are
caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other
which has been discovered; and 1t has still another
important advantage to the public, which is, that
It is cheap as well as good.

HEAT IN INDIA---The London
Times has an article on the great heat
from which Europeans in India suffer
so much. The thermometer ranges
up to 1874 . in the shade, which is
SO . above the ordinary heat Of the
blood, and 80 > above that of the blood
when in high fever. We are warn
here, but that is q little warmer. We
have cool nights, but the nights there
are almost as hot as the days. Sun
stroke seems as fatal to life as cholera
in fact exceeds the mortality from al
othersources. How can English sold
iers fight in such a climate, agains
natives who revel in sunshine9 The
arrows of Sol must be far worse than
the balls Of the Sepoys. Think Of
this, ye grumblers about heat, who
have plenty of ice to cool off with; no
ice there, except little American
to be had at large price in few Of
the great coast cities none either ma
tive or foreign in the plains.
