TO PROMOTE
GOOD HEALTH,
USE THE
Dandelion and Wild Cherry
BITTERS.

TIME Undersigned would respectfully tender
l. his thanks to the people of Northern
Iowa for their liberal patronage during the
brief period the above named medicine has
been before the public. The high price Of
glass and other material used, together with
the direct government tax, has compelled
me to advance the price Of my medicine This
necessity regret no less than the intelligent
public who assure me of their confidence in
the healing virtue Of my bitters by the con-
tinuance of their patronage since the advance
in price.
i am now happy to assure my customers
and the public that the advance in the price
of my medicine does not 60 into my pocket,
but is deposited in the government treasury to
do its part towards subduing the rebellion.
''An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of
cure, J." is an old saying, but none the worse
for age; then if you would save many doc
tors bills,
Keep these Bitters' in Your
Family!
If You have symptoms of Dyspepsia take
them freely. In ordinary cases table spoon
full is dose, but much larger quantity can
be taken with safety. The dose should be
regulated to agree with your nervous system.
Hardly any two cases are alike in this respect.
In cases OF great prostration, or that feeling
described as sense of goneness,
IT NEEDS ONLY A TRIAL
To Effect a PERFECT Restoration.
Its exhilarating properties are not exces.
sive. like the vile compounds withwhich the
country Is Hooded, under the names of Cordial
Gins, Schiedam Schnaps, Roback's Bitters, etc.
containing few medicinal virtues of any value,
and which are intended merely as an evasion
of restrictive Maine Laws but instead of so
large proportion of alcohol,
These Bittcrs derive their Stimu-
lous from the Powerful Ma
ture of the Roots and
.#t Herbs of which they --
are Composed.
And rs they are, by allaying unnatural crav-
ugs of the stomach, directly promotive of

Ayers Sarsaparilla

Is compounded from the most effectual anti-
dotes that medical science has discovered for
this affecting distcmpcr, 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 n 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-
tons, Pimples, Blotches and Sores, Fry.
sipelas, Rose or st. Anthony's Fire, Salt
Rheum, Scald Head, Coughs from tu-
berculous deposits in tho lungs, White
Swellings, Debility, Dropsy, Neuralgia,
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Syphilis and
6yphilitic 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 AYER's 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 it has made when
all other remedies had failed to afford relief
Those cases are purposcly taken from all Sec
lions 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 depresses the vital energies, and thus
leaves its victims far more subject to disease
and its fatal results than are healthy constitu.
tons. Hence it tends to shorten, and does
greatly shorten, the average duration Of human
life. The vast importance of these considera-
tons has led us to spend years in perfecting a
remedy which is adequate to its cure. This
we now offer to the public under the name of
AYERS SARsAPARILLA, although it is com.
posed Of ingredients, some of which exceed the
best of SarsapariHa 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 cxpels the distempers which
Turk within the system or burst out on any
part Of it.
We know the public have been deceived by
many compounds of Sarsuparilla, that promised
much and 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 q 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.
