Ayers Sarsaparilla

Is compounded from the most efectual anti
dotes that medical science has discovered for
this affecting distcmper and for the cure Of the
disorders il entails. That il is far superior to
any other remedy yet devised, is known by all
who have given it a trial. That it does com-
bine virtues truly extraordinary in their effect
upon this class of complaints, is indisputabiy
proven by the great multitude of publicly
known and remarkable cures it has made Of
the following diseases Kings Evil or
Glandular Swellings, Tumors, Erup
tions, Pimples, Blotches and Sores, Fry
sipelas, Rose or St, Anthony's Fire. Salt
Rheum, Scald Head, Coughs from tu-
berculous 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 NAV be found in AYERS AMERICAS
Almanac which is furnished to the druggists
for gratuitous distribution, wherein may he
learned the directions for its use, and some of
tho remarkable cures whicn it has made when
all other remedies had failed to afford relief
Those cases arc purposely taken from all sec
tions of the country, in order that every reader
NAV nave utCtso W Soiiic OuS WIZ sbNah W
him of its benefits from personal experience.
Scrofula depresses the vital energies, and thus
leaves its victims far moro subject TO disease
and its fatal results than are healthy constitu-
tions. Hence it tends to shorten, and docs
greatly shorten, the average duration Of human
life The vast importance of these considera-
tions has led us to spend years in pcrfectng
remedy which is adequate to its cure This
we now offer to the public under the name Of
AYERS SARsAPARILsA, although it is com
posed Of ingredients, some of which exceed the
best of Sarsupariiia 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 peculiar
virtues this remedy stimulates the vital func
tions, and thus expels the distempers which
lurk within the system or burst out on any
part Of it.
We know the public have been deceived by
many compounds of .Sarsapa1ila, that promised
much aud did nothing; but they will neither be
deceived nor disappointed in this Its virtues
have been proven by abundant trial, and there
remains no question Of its surprising excellence
for the cure of the affecting diseases it is in
tended to reach. Although under the same
name, it is very different medicine from any
other which has been before the people, and is
far more effectual than any other which has
ever been available TO them

contamination is variously caused by mcrcurial
disease, low living dSordcred digestion from
unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy
habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by
the yenereal infection. Whatever be its origin,
it is hereditary in the constitution, descending
"from parents to children unto the third and
fourth generation /" indeed, it seems to be the
rod of Him who says. +" l will visit the in9ui-
ties Of the fathers upon their children" The
diseases which it originates take various names,
according to the organs it attacks. In the
lungs, Scrofula produces tubercles, and finally
Consumption in the glands, swellings which
suppurate and become ulcerous sores in the
stomach and bowels, arrangements which pro-
duce indigestion, dyspepsia, and liver com,
plants; on the skin, eruptive and cutaneous
affections. These all having the same origin,
require the same remedy, viz. publication and
inauguration of the blood. Purify the blood
and these dangerous distempers leave you.
