The scrofulous contamination is va- Eously caused by mercurial disease, low living, dlsordered digestion from unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by the venereal infection. Whatever be it's 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, II will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their children" The diseases 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 be- come ulcerous sores; in the stomach and bowels, Arrangements which produce indi- gestion, dyspepsia, and liver complaints; on the skin, eruptive and cutaneous affections. These, all having the same origin, require the same remedy, viz, purifcation and invigora- ton of the blood. Purify the blood, and these dangerous distempers leave you. With feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you cannot nave health; with that "ife of the flesh" healthy, you cannot have scrofulous disease.
 t-:, Ayers Sarsaparilla
 is compounded from the most effectual anti- dotes that medical science has discovered for this affiicting distemper, and for the cure of the disorders it entails. That it is E.r rior to any oIner remedy yet devised, is known by all who have given it trial. That 1t does combine virtues truly extraordinary in their effect upon this class of complaints, IS indisputably proven by the great multitude 0f publicly known and remarkable cures it has made of the following diseases: Kings Evil, or Glandular Swellings, Tumofs, 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 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 it's 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 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 depresses the vital energies, and thus leaves its victims far more subject to disease and its fatal results than are healthy constitutions. Hence it 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 perfccting a remedy which is adequate to its cure. This we now offer to the public under the name of AYER's SARsAPARILLA, although it is composed of ingredients, some of which exceed the best of Sarsapa,sUG in alterative power. By it's aid you may protect yourself from the suffer- ing and danger of these disorders. Purge out the foul corruptions that rot and fester in the blood, purge out the causes of disease, and vigorous health will follow By its pccu- liar virtues this remedy stimulates the vital functions, and thus expels the distempers which turk within the system or burst out on any part of it.
 We know tic public have been deceived by many compounds of Sarsaparilla, that promised much and did nothing; but they will neither be deceived nor disappointed III this It's virtues have been proven by abun- dant trial, and there remains no question of its surpassing excellence for the cure of the afiicting diseases it is intended to reach Although, .ntcI l1ie naIne, II IS very different medicine from any other which has been before the people, and is far more ef- fectual than any other which has ever been available to them.
