the prelude Of serious Illness Some
fit of sickness is creeping upon you, and should
be averted by timely of the right remedy
Take Ayers Pills, and cleanse out the disordercd
humors purify the blood, and let the fluids move
on unobstructed in health again. They stimulate
the functions Of the body into vigorous activity,
purify the system from the distractions which
make disease. A cold settles somewhere in the
body, and deranges its natural functions. These,
if not relieved, react upon themselves and the
surrounding organs, producing general aggrava-
ton, suffering and arrangement. While in this
condition, take Ayers Pills, ana see how directly
they restore the natural action Of the system and
with the buoyent feeling of health again. WHAT'S
true and SO apparent in this trivial and common
complaint is also true in many of the deep seated
and dangerous distcmpers. The same purgative
effect expels them. Caused by similar obstruc-
tons and arrangements of the natural functions
of the body, they are rapidly and many of them
surely cured by the same means. None who know
the virtue of these Pills will neglect to employ
them when suffering from the disorders they cure
such as Headach Foul Stomach. Dysentery, Bill
ious Complaints, Indigestion arrangements of
the Liver, Costiveness, Constipation, Heartburn,
Rheumatism. Dropsy, Worms and Suppression,
when taken in large doses.
They are Sugar Coated, so that The most sensi
tive can take them easily, and they surely the
best purgative medicine yet discovered.

all conditions ordinarily called Bilious, Derange-
ments of the Digestive Organs; all forms of Con-
stipation, and for all the purposes of a Family
Pill, use cdr T. Rennolds celebrated Virginia
Hepatic and Purgative Pill''
This pill is not the invention of a quack or an
lmpostor, designed to impose upon public credu-
lity but was compounded by Dr. T. Rennolds,
OF Staunton, Va, regular graduate and eminent
practitioner of medicine in this section who, after
years of careful study, so arranged the proper
tons of the ingredients to render it applicable
to the diseases for which it is recommended. He
had 70 idea of extending their use beyond the
community in which he lived and practiced, but
after his DEATH which occurred in January 1864
having left the formula for compromising them to
his brother, VIM. Rennolds, of Louisa county,
Va, the latter, for reasons stated in pamphlet
around box containing them, has undertaken to
have them manufactured for the people of the
whole State
having been extensively used and highly valued
by the people of this section for many years, asis
substantiated by certificates contained in pam
Dhlet around box, as well as other evidences of
appreciation from many Of our most distinguished
and reliable citizens.
The price of this pill is fifty cents per box
Though this is apparently higher than the price
charged for those ordinarily sold to the public,
yet it must be remembered that the dose is less
than one half of the latter, and consequently is
just as cheap as any others.
To prove this, it is only necessary to call atten-
ton to the fact that boxes Of pills usually contain
from "a to 80 pills, the average dose being from
3 to g. Our boxes contain IL, the dose being on
ly one for ordinary purposes, and hence thequan-
tty is just great in smaller bulk without ref
erence to the certainty and efficiency of the rem
dy and obviatng the serious objection to taking
so many for one dose.
Nothing is claimed for this pill that we do not
believe, and if we cannot succeed
in introducing it to the people by stating the
truth, we will not degrade ourselves or try to inn
pose upon others by going beyond it.

was thus crippled he remained in the service in
