Fever and Ague.

from which mankind suffer over a large part Of
!he 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 aud rises with
me watery vapor from it. While the sun is below
the horizon this vapor fingers near the earh's
,ace' and the virus is taken with it through the
lungs into the blood There it acts us an irritating
poison on the internal viseera and exereting
OF the body. The liver becomes torpid and fails to
secrete not only this virus, but also the bile from
the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate
IN the circulation, and produce violent consiitu-
uonal disorder. The spleen, the kidneys. and the
stomach sympathize with the liver, and become
oiSordered also. Finally, the instinct of our Or
9anism, as II In an attempt to expel the noxious
INFUSION, concentrates the whole blood OF the body
IN the internal excretories to force them it
out The blood leaves the surface, and rushes to
the central organs with congestve violence. This
Is the CHILL But in this effort it fails. Then the
FEVER follows, in which the blood leaves the CEN
tral organs and rushes to the surface, as if in
another effort to expel the irritating poison through
tnat other great excretory-the skin. In this
also It fals, and the system abandons the attempt
exhausted, and waits for the recovery of strength
to repeat the hopeless effort another day. These
are the flts or paroxysms of FEVER AND AGUE.

Ayers Ague Cure.

Thtcl neutralizes this malarious poison in thu
oot, ana stun ates the liver to expel it from tbs
Gcdy As 1t should, it does cure this affecting
disorder with perfect certainty And it does more
or rather does what is of more service to those sub
ect to this infection. If taken in season it expels
IL from the system as it is absorbed and thus keeDs
thoSe VINO use 1t free from its attacks; keeps the
system IN health although exposed to the disease
Consequently it not only cures, but protects from
the great variety of affections which are induced
oy this malignant influence, such as Remittent
Fever. Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Aeue,
Periodical Headache. or Bilious Headache, Bilious
feVer7, Neuralgia rheumatism, Gout, Blindness.
i"othache, EaractIe, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpita-
tons, Painful Affections of the Spleen, Mysteries,
Collie, 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 tIe Intermittent type. This AGUE CURE -
removes c cause of these arrangements, and cures
the disease.
fhii it aceonnnlshes by stimulating the excre-
tories to expcl the virus from the system; and
these organs by degrees become habitcd to do this
thcir Office of their own accord. Hence arises what
we term GcctimnfattOa. Time may accomplish the
sa'ue end, but often life is not long enough or is
sacrificed III the attempt. while this AGuE CURE
does it at once, and with safety. We have great
reason TO believe this is surer as we'll as safer
remedy for the whole class of diseases which are
caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other
which has been discovered; and it has still anothcr
important advantage to the public, which is. that
it is cheap well good.
