Ayers Sarsaparilla

is compounded from the most effectual anti.
doteS that medical science has discovered for
this affecting diStemper and for the cure OF the
disorders il 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-
tons, Pinples, Blotches and Sores, Ery.
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 may be found in AYERS AMERICAN
ALMANAC which is furnished to the druggists
for grauitouS 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
tionS of the country, in order that every reader
VIC uNCNSS W sOHLC ullS WIN SpCdh W
him of its benefits from personal experience.
Scrofua 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-
tions 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 .SarSIpariHa 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 bN
many compounds of SarsdpariRa that promise,
much and did nothing; but they will neither -
deceived nor disappointed in this. Its virtue
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 a 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.

road, has been made; and when the fianking
manouvres are reckoned in, the result will dis
close contested march of fully two hundred
miles. 1t has been conducted through coun-
try defensibe at every step, by river and noun
tam, with the impregnable barriers of the
Blue Ridge everywhere interposed, now in
parallel ranges, now in sharp spurs, and now
N detached and solitary peaks, like Lost
Monntain aud kenesaw. Ths pitched battles
az Tunnel Hill, Resaea, Kenesaw, Altoona,
Dallas, Peaea Tree Greek and Atlanta, will
testify the reluctance with which the enemy
has suffered his long line OF defences TO be
successfully wrung from him. The removal
OF Johnston, a favorite and able General, and
no less the urgent cry of Governor Brown
for boys between sixteen and seventeen, and
old men between fifty and fiity-fve, to march
10 the field as the last hope OF the rebellion,
show that the enemy will fight to desperation
before he surrenders Atlanta. Here, In fact,
are at once the granary, the foundry, and the
arsenal of the Confederacy, in the region our
troops now occupy. We say, therefore,
again, the fall of Atlanta in itself crowns with
success the whole campaign.
