We do not often make any editorial mention
of the proprietary medicines advertised in
our columns. but we believe it to be duty
we owe to our readers to call their attention
to the advertisement of DIR. j. G.. Ayers Ague
Cure which appears in this issue of our paper
We know from sad experience that nothing
is more disheartening than the insidious ap-
proaches and periodical attacks of malarial
and miasmatic disorders. The remedy pre-
pared by DIR. Aver & Co. has been in use
many years, and has proved a positive
antidOte for disorders of this nature. 1t is,
withal. safe and harmless one to take. being
composed entirely Of vegetable ingredients,
without either quinine or minerals, unlike
other so-called Ague Cures, and consequently
incapable of producing the deplorable effects
which follow the use of these drugs Our
Western people owe debt Of gratitude to
DIR. Aver for the production of this valuable
medicine. Its timely use will save much
suffering, and We recommend it with the
greatest confidence in its ability to do all
that is promised for it.--Atkins, Ark., Ners.
