decay. The scrofulous contamination is va
riously caused by mercurial disease, low
living, disordered digestion from unhealthy
food impure air. filth and filthy habits,
the depressing vices, and, above all, by
the yenereal infection. Whatever be its
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, 9 / 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, Scrotula produces
tubercleS, and finally Consumption; i'll 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, publication and inyigora-
ton of the blood. Purify the blood, and
these dangerous distemperS leave you. With
feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you cannot
have health; with that life of the flesh"
healthy, you cannot have scrofulous disease.
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 it entails. That it is far supe-
rior to any other remedy yet devised, is
known by all who have given il 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, or Glandular SWellings, Tumors,
ETuptiOns, Pimples, Blotches and Sores,
Erysipelas, Rose or St. Anthony's Fire,
Salt RheUm, Scald Head, Coughs from
tuberCul0us deposits in the lungs, White
SWellings, Debility, Dropsy Neuralgia,
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Syphilis and
Syphihtic Infections, Mercurial Diseases,
Female W WGaknesses, and, indeed, the whole
series Of complaints that arise from impurlty
of the blood. Minute reports Of individual
cases may be found in AYERS AMERICAN
ALMANAC, which is furnished to the druggists
for gTatutOuS 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 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 does greatly shorten,
the average duration of human life. The
/ vast importance of these considerations has
/ led us to spend years III pertectng remedy
which is adequate TO its cure. This we now
/ offer to the public under the name of AYERS
/ SARsAPARILLA, although it is composed of
/ ingredients, some Of which exceed the best
Of Say5ayariHa in Alternative power. BY lbs
/ aid you may protect yourself from the suffer
ing and danger of these disorders. Purge
out the foul corruptions that rot and tester
I in the blood, purge out the causes of disease,
and vigorous health viii follow. BY its pecu-
/ liar virtues this remedy stimulates the vital
functions, and thus eXpeis the distempers
which lurk within the system or burst out
on any part Of 1t.
/ We know the public have been deceived
by many compounds OF SarsapariHa, that
promised much and did nothing; but they
will neither be deceived nor disappointed IN
this. Its virtues have been proven by abun-
dant trial, and there remains no question of
its surprising excellence for the cure Of the
affecting diseases it is intended 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 eff
fectual than any other which has ever been
available to them.
