peared a statement in the form of a card

counting his remarkable recovery from

AYERS CATHAETIC Pills are the best
OF all purgatives for family use. They
are the product OF long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians in
their practice, and by ali civilized ma
lions, proves them the best and most
efectual purgative Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
etable no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coated, they are
pleasant to take. In intrinsic yaluo
and curative powers no other Pills
can be compared with them: and every
person, knowing their virtues, viii
employ them. when needed They
keep the system in perfect order, and
maintain in healthy action the whole
machinery of life. Mild, searching and
edectual. they are especially adapted
20 the needs OF the digestive apparatus,
arrangements or which they prevent
