Ague Cure

Is q purely vegetable bitter and power
full tonic, and is warranted speedy and
certain cure for Fever and Ague, Chills
and Fever, Intermittent or Chill Fe-
YER, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague,
Periodical or Bilious Fever, and all
malarial disorders. In miaslnatc dis
tricts, the rapid pulse, coated tongue, thirst,
lassitude, loss of appetite, pain i'll the back
and loins, and GOODNESS Of the spine and
extremties, are only premonitions of
severer symptoms, which terminate in the
ague paroxysm, succeeded by high fever
and profuse perspiration.
1t is a startling fact, that quinine, arse
mic and other poisonous minerals, form the
basis of most of the "Fever and Ague
Preparations" Specifics" "Syrups," and
"Tonics" in the market. The prepara-
tions 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
the system, producing quinism, dizziness,
ringing in the ears, headache, vertigo, and
ether disorders more formidable than tho
disease they were intended to cure.
AYERS AGUE CURE thoroughly eradicates
these noXious poisOns from the system,
and always cures the severest cases. 1t
contains no quinine, mineral or any thing
that could injure the most delicate pa
tient; and its crowning excellence, above
its certainty to cure, is that it leaves the
system as, free from disease as before the
attack.
For Liver Complaints, AYERS AdUE
CURE, by direct action on the liver and
hillary apparatus, drives out the poisons
which produce these complaints, and stim-
ulates the system to vigorous, healthy
condition. 4 all
We warrant it when taken according to
directions. = ~,
