decay. The scrofulous contamination Is va.
riously caused by mercurial disease, low
living, disordercd digestion from unhealthy
food, impure air, flth and filthy habits,
tho depressing vices, and, above oil, BY
the yenercal Infection. Whatever be its
origin, It Is hereditary in the constitution,
descending "from parents to children unto
the third and fourth generations; indeed, it
seems to be the rod of Him who says, will
visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their
children" The diseases il originates take
various names, according TO the organs Il
attacks. In the lungs, Scrofnla produces
tuberclcs, and finally Consumption; in the
glands, swellings which suppnrate and be.
come ulcer0us sores; in the stomach and
bowels, arrangements which produce indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, and liver complaints; ON
the skin, cruptiye and cutaneous affections.
These, all having the same origin, require the
same remedy, viz, publication and invigora..
ton Of the blood. Purify the blood, and
these dangerous distcmpcrs leave you. With
feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you cannot
have health; with that "lifc Of the flc,h"
healthy, you cannot have scrofulous disease.
-. Ayers sarsaparilla
Is compounded from the most eficctual anti.
dotes that medical science has discovered for
this affecting distemper, and for the cure Of
the disorders It entails. That II Is far supe-
rior to any other remedy yet devised, Is
known by all who have given II q trial. That
II does combine virtues truly extraordinary
in their effect upon this class of complaints,
Is indisputably proven by the great multitude
of publicly known and remarkable cures 1t
has made of the following diseases: Kings
Evil, or Glandular Swellings, Tumors,
Eruptions, Pimples, Blotches and Sores,
Erysipelas, Rose or st. Anthony's Fire,
Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Coughs from
tuberculous deposits in the lungs, White
Swellings, Debility, Dropsy, Neuralgia,
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Syphilis and
Syphilitic Infections, Mercurial Diseases,
Female Weaknesses, and, indeed, the whole
series Of complaints that arise from impurity
of the blood. Minute reports Of individual
cases may be found in AYERS AMERICAN
ALMANAC, which Is furnished to the druggists
for gratuitous distribution, wherein may be
learned the directions for its use, and some
of the remarkable cures which 1t has made
when all other remedies had failed to afford
relief. Those cases arc purposely taken
from all sections Of the country, in order
that every reader may have access to some
one who can speak to him Of its benefits from
personal experience. Scrofula deprcsscs the
vital energies, and thus leaves its victims far
more subject to disease and its fatal results
than are healthy constitutions. Hence 1t
tends to shorten, and docs greatly shorten,
the average duration of human life. The
vast importance of these considerations has
led us to spend years In pcrfecting remedy
which is adequate to its cure. This We now
offer to the public under the name of ArER's
SARsApARILLA, although II is composed OF
ingredients, some of which exceed the best
of Sarsapari2a in alternative power. BY its
aid you may protect yourself from the suffer-
ing and danger of these disorders. Purge
out the foul corruptions that rot and tester
in the blood, purge out the causes OF disease,
and vigorous health will follow. BY its pecu-
liar virtues this remedy stimulates the vital
functions, and thus expels the distempcrs
which Turk within the system or burst out
on any part of it.
We know the public have been deceived
by many compounds of SdrsapdriNd, that
promised much and did nothing; but they
will neither be deceived nor disappointed in
this. It's virtues have been proven by album
dant trial, and there remains no question Of
its surprising excellence for the cure of the
affecting diseases 1t Is intended to reach.
Although under the same name, 1t is very
different medicine from any other which has
been before the people, and is far more eff
fectual than any other which has ever been |
available to them.
