decay. The scrofulous contamination is va
riously caused by mercurial disease, low
living, disordercd digestion from unheaitly
food, impure air, filth and hlthy hapits,
the depressing vices, and, above all, by
the venereal Infection. Whatever pe us
origin, it is hereditary i'll the constitution,
descending " from parents to children unto
tbe third and fourth generation; " indeed, it
seems to be the rod of Him who says, u Will
visit the iniauities of the fathers upon their
children" The diseases it originates take
various names, according to the organs IL
attacks. In the lungs, Scrofula produces
tubercles. and finally Consumption; IN the
glands, swellings which suppurate and be.
come ulcerous sores; in the stomach ana
bowels, arrangements which produce anai-
gestion, dyspepsia, and liver complaints; on
the skim eruptive and cutaneous affections.
These, all having the same origin, require the
same remedy, viz, purihcation and nvlgora-
ton of the blood. Purify the blood, and
these dangerous distempcrs leave you. With
feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you cannot
have health; with that "lifc of the flesh"
healthy, you cannot have scrofulous dlsease'
Ayers Sarsaparilla
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 supe-
known by all who have given it trial. That
it does combine 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, OF Glandular Swellings, Tumors,
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
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 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 tho
vital energies, and thus leaves its victims fal
more subject to disease and its fatal results
than are healthy constitutions. Hence i
tends to shorten, and does greatly shorten
the average duration of human life. TIL,
vast importance of these considerations ha
led us TO spend years in pcrfectng remed.
which is adequate to its cure. This we nov

aid you may protect yourself from the suffer

out the foul corruptions that rot and festc
in the blood, purge out the causes of disease
and vigorous health will follow. By its pecu

which lurk within the system or burst ou
on any part of it.
We know the public have been deceive
by many compounds of SdrSapmiild, tina
promised much and did nothing; but the
will neither be deceived nor disappointed /
this. Its virtues have been proven by abun
dant trial, and there remains no question 0
its surprising excellence for the cure of III
aifiicting diseases it is intended TO rcacl
Although under the same name, it is a yer
different medicine from any other which ha
been before the people, and is far more et
fectual than any other which has ever bee
available to them.
