-AYER'S
Ague Cure,

Intermittent Fever or Fever and Ague,
Rcmittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious FeYers, indeed
for the whole class of diseases Origi-
mating in hillary arrangement, caused
by the Malaria Of miasmatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called for by the
necessities Of the American people than sure
and safe cure for Fever and Ague. Such
we are now enabled to offer, with perfect
certainty that it will eradicate the disease,
and with assurance, founded on proof, that
no harm can arise from its use in any guam
tity.
That which protects from or prevents this
disorder must be Of immense service in the
communities where II prevails. Prevention is
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks Of
this baleful distelnper. This "Cung" expcls
the miasmatic poison of FEVER AND AGuR
from the system and prevents the develop
mcnt of the disease, if taken on the first ap-
proach Of its prenionitory symptoms. II is
not only the best remedy ever yet discovered
for this class of complaints, but also the
cheapest. The large quantity we supply for
u dollar brings it within the reach of every
body; and in bilious districts, where FEvRR
AND AGUE prevails, every body should have it
and use it freely both for cure and protection.
1t is hoped this price will place it within the
reach Of all-the poor as well as the rich. A
great superiority Of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and GER
tain cure Of Intermittcnts Is, that it contains
no Quinine or mineral, consequently it pro-
duces no quinism or other injurious effects
whatever upon the constitution. Those cured
by it are left us healthy as if they had never
had the disease.
Fever and Agucis not alone the consequence
Of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of
disorders arise from its iTritotion, among which
are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Govt, Headache,
Blindness. Toothachc, Earache, Catarrh, Asth-
ma, Palpitation, Painful Affection Of the
Spleen, Mysteries, Pain in the Bowels Cole,
Paralysis, and Derangement of the Stomach,
all of which, when originating in this cause,
put on the intermittent type, or become period
ical. This "CURE" cXpcls the poison from
the blood, and consequently cures them all
alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to immi-
grants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the maluriUus districts. If taken
occasionally or daily while exposed to the i'll
fiction, that will be cxcrctcd from tic system,
and cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity
to ripen into disease, Hence it is even more
valuable for protection than cure, and few will
ever suffer from Mtcrmittents, il they avail
themselves of the protection this remedy af-
fords,

Hard ways 81 Doing Things.

The culIivator Of fruit should always
bear in mind that the best way to get
rid Of destructive insects is to kill them.
The various remedies, short of this course
are often more expensive or laborious
than direct slaughter, and commonly in
efficient at best. AS an instance, We
see the old remedy oil tansey for the
peach grub going the rounds OF the pa
Pers again. This remedy may be etici-
ent, yet while the owner Of an orchard
of thousand peach trees is setting out
a thousand tansy plants at the foot Of
his trees, and nursing and protecting
them, 10 say nothing Of the impeachment
they would constantly occasion to good
cultivation, he might go over an orchard
of ten thousand trees and with the point
OF his knife destroy every grub in the
bark, the external indication OF which,
by gum and sawdust, quickly enables
him to know where 10 look We know
by experience that single hand will ef-
fectually clear many hundred trees in
single day, and repetition Of the work
two or three times year will keep an
orchard clear where the insects are abun.

There are many other illustrations of
the same principle, such. for example, os

generally greater than that Of killing the

insects may BIZ destroyed by wholesale,
as. for instance, the aphis BY soap suds,
and the currant worm by dry caustic

where it would be more profitable to

the day, with his thumb and finger, than
attemptto brighten them away by outside
