The Supreme Court of the State of New
York have issued perpetual injunction
against Eaton and Jenkins for counterfeiting
Ayers Cathartic Pills holding them RESPONSE
BILE for the cruel imposition IN what they have
done and restraining them from further like
injury to the public. If any class of our peo
Pile more than another needs the nterposition
of law to shield them from imposture, it is the
sick and suffering who are unable to protect
themselves. A remedy so universally en-
ployed as Ayers Pills by all classes, both to
cure and prevent disease, should as it does,
have every security the law can afford it, from
counterfeit and imitation.-Cabnet, Schenecs
