Ayers sarsaparilla

Is compounded from the most ehectiial anti-
dotes that medical science has discovered fol
this affecting distcnper and for tho cure Of me
disorders it entails. That it is far superior TO
any other remedy yet devised. is known ny all
who have given II u trial. That il docs com
bine virtues truly extraordinary in their erect
upon this class of complaints, is indlSpuaD,y
proven by tho great multitude OF pnnliciy
known and remarkable cures 1t has maze Oh
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. Deh'''''- Dropsy, Neuralgia,
Dyspep: ~ lion, Syphilis and
Svphiiitic In,ao -Iercurial 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 rratuitons distribution wherein may be
learned the directions for its use, and some Of
the remarkable cures which it has made when
all other remedies hsd failed TO afford relief.
Those cases are purpoSely taken from all sec
tons of tie country, in order that every reader
NAV haye access 10 some one who can speak to
him of its benefits from personal experience.
Scrofula depreSscs the vital energies and thus
leaves It's victims far more sulcct TO dlsense
and its firal results than are healthy constitu-
tons. Hence it tends to shorten, and does
greatly shorten, the average duration of human
life Tie vast importance of these considcra-
tons has led us to spend years in pcrfecting
rcmcdy which is ad' quaie 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 Strs ,juriHd in alternative power BY
IT'S MD Won may protect yourself from The suffer
ing and danger of thcss disorders. Purge out
,hc foul c0rrupiiois rlat rot aud foster in the
blood; purge out the causes Of disease, and
vigorous health will follow. BY its peculiar
.irtnes this remedy stimulates the vital func-
IONS, ard thus cxpels the distcmpers which
lurk within the system or burst out on any
part Of it.
We know the public have been deceived by
many compounds of .SvMpar,iIa, that promised
ruch aud did nohlng; but they will p1iihcr be
deceived nor disappointed in this. H. virtues
ave hcrn proven by abundant Trial, and there
mains no question Of It's surprising excellence
or the cure of the afllicting diseases it il in
: ended to reach. Altbolgh under tho same
lame, it il u very different medicine from a,
