are still the most thorough and search
ing cathartic medicine that can be
employed; cleansing the stomach anu
bowels, and even the blood. In small
doses of one pill a day, they stimulate
the digestive organs and promote Wig
orOus health.
Ayrn's PILLS have been known for
more than u quarter Of century, and
have obtained q worldwide reputation
for their virtues. They correct dis
cased action in the several asslmiia-
tive organs Of the body, and are so
composed that distractions within
their range can rarely withstand or
evade them. Not only do they cure
the everyday complaints Of every
body. but also formidable and danger
Gus diseases that have bafiled the best
of human skill. While they produce
powerful effects, they are, at the same
time. the safest and best physic for
children. BY their aperient action
they grippe much less than the common
purgatives, and never give pain when
the bowels are not inAamed. They
reach the vital fountains Of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing
It from the elements Ofweakness.
Adapted to oil ages and conditions
in all climates, containing neither
calomel nor any deleterious drug,
these Pills may be taken with safety
by anybody. Their sugar-coating pre-
serves them ever fresh and makes
them pleasant to take; while being
purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use In any quantity.
