Ayers Sarsaparilla

Ayr OdTcdpdTAAd
Is compounded from the most cffectual anti
dotes that medical science has discovered for
this affecting distemper, and for the cure of the
disorders it entails. That it 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 indisputably
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
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 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 it has made when
all other remedies had failed to afford relief.
Those cases are purposely 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-
tions. 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 SdrsapdriUd 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
tons, and thus expels 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 Sarsdparilla, 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 very different medicine from any
other which has been before the people, and is
far more effectual than any other which has
over been available to them
