- AYERS CATHARTIc Puts are the best Of
all purgstives for family use. They are the
product Of long, lahorious, and successful
chemical investigation, and their extensive
use, by physicians in their practice, and by all
civilized nations, proves them the best and
most eifectaal purgatiye Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely vegetable
no harm can arise from their use, and being
sugar coated, they are pleasant to take. In
intrinsic value and curative powers no other
Pills can be compared with them; and every
person, knowing their virtues, will employ
them, when needed. They keep the system
in perfect order, and maintain in healthy ae-
ton the whole machinery oflife. Mild, search
ing and effectual, they are especially adapted
to the needs Of the digestive apparatus, de-
rangements Of which they prevent and cure,
if timely taken. They are the best aud safest
physic TO employ for children and weakened
constitutions, where a mild hut efecsnal ca
thartie Is required.
