A Cure

Is a purely vegetable bitter and power
full tonic, and is warranted a speedy and
certain cure for Fever and Ague, Chills
and Fever, Intermittent Of Chill Fee
Periodical or Bilious Fever, and all
malarial disorders. In miasmatic dis
tricts. the rapid pulse, coated tongue, thirst,
lassitude, loss of appetite, pain in the back
and loins, and GOODNESS of the. spine and
extremities, are only premonitions of
ague paroxysm, succeeded by high fever
and profuse perspiration.
It is a startling fact, that quinine, arse
mic and other poisonous minerals, form the
basis of most of the "Fever and Ague
aTppnics,s in the hhsp @affst' "ST{br e psepa ana
lions made from these mineral poisons,
although they are palatable, and may
break the chill, do not cure, but leave the
malarial and their own drug poison in
ringing in the ears. headache, vertigo, and
other disorders more formidable than the
disease they We're intended to cure.
AYERS AGUE CURE thoroughly eradicatcs
these noSious poisons from the system,
and always cures the scverest cases 1t
contains no quinine, mineral, or any thing
that could injurc the most delicate pa
tient; and its rowning excellence, above
its certainty to cure, is that it leaves the
system as free from disease as before the
attack.
For Liver Complaints, AYERS AGrE
CURE, BY direct action oil the liver and
hillary apparatus, drives out the poisons
which produce these complaints, and slim
ulates the system to a vigorous, healthy
condition.
We warrant it when taken according to
directions.

offered donation of el0,000, but the English
ambassador at Constantinople was directed by
the queen TO inform him that her contribu-

sultan could not, in good taste, give any
more; hence the net result OF the famine fund,
