AYer'sSarSaparilla

A compound remedy, in which W. have Ia
bored to produce the most ~effectual Alternative
that can be made. It is a concentrated extract
of Para Sarsaparilla, so combined with other
substances of still greater alternative power as
to afford an effective antidote for the diseases
Sarsaparilla is rcputcd to cure. l. Is believed
that such a remedy is wanted By those who
suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one
which will accomplish their cure mu It prove
of immense service to this large class Of our
afflicted fellow-citizcns How completely this
compound viii do it has been proven by expcr-
iment on many of the worst cases to b. found
of the following comploints:-
ScRoFULA AND ScRoFULoUS COMPLAINTS,
ERUpTIoNs AND ERUPTIvE DISEASES, ULcEUs,
PIMPLEs, BLorCHEs, TUMoRs. SALT RHEGI,
ScALD HEAD, SYPHfLIs M SYPHILTTIc Ar
FEcTIoNs, MERcuRIAL DISEASE, DRoPsY, Mt"
RALGIA OR Tic DouLoUREUx, DEBILITY, DYs-
PERSIA AND INDIGESTION, ERYsIPELAs, Rose
OR ST. ANTHoNY's FIRE, and indeed the whole
class OF complaints arising from IMPURIrY OF
THE BLOOD.
This compound will be found a great pro-
Inoter of health, when taken III the spring, to
expel the foul humors which tester in the
blood at that season of the year. BY the time
" expulsion of them many ranking disorders
are nipped in the bud. M~ultitules can, by
the aid Of this remedy, spare themselves from
the endurance of foul %eruptions and ulcerous
sores, through which the system will strive to
rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do
this through the natural channels of the body
by an Alternative medicine. Cleanse out the
vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities
bursting through the kin in pimples. eruptions,
or sores; cleanse it when you find it is OBJ
structed and sluggish in the veins cleanse it
whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell
you when. Even where no particular disorder
is felt, people enjoy better health, and live
longer, for cleansing the blood. Keep the
blood healthy, and all is well but with this
pabulum of life disordered, there can be no
lasting health. Sooner or later something
must go wrong, and the great machinery OF
life is disordered or overthrown.
Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, tho
reputation of accomplishing these ends. But
the world has been egregiously deceived by
preparations of it, partly because the drus
alone has not all the virtue that is claimed
for it, but more because many preparations
pretending to be concentrated extracts of 1t
contain but little of the virtue of S~arsaparilla
or any thing else.
During late years the public have been mis-
led by large bottles, pretending to give a quar-
of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Mos
of these have been frauds upon the sick, 70
they not only contain little, if any, Sarsapa
rilla, but often no curative properties whatey
er. Hence, bitter and painful disappomt1ncn
has followed the use of the various extracts G
Sarsaparilla which food the market, until tn
name itself is Justly despised, and has bccom
synonymous with imposition and cheat. ST.
we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intcn
to supply such a remedy as shah rescue Il
name from the load of obloquy which res
upon it. And we think we have ground ft
believing it has virtues which arc irresistib
by the ordinary run of tho diseases it's inten'
ed to cure. In order to secure their compile
eradication from tie system, the remedy shou
be j~udiciously taken according to directions
]. the bottle.
