Ayers SarsaparyNa

Is the onlyremedy that can be relied upon,
in all cases, to eradicate the faint of hered-
itary disease and the special corruptions
of the blood. It is the only Alternative
that is sufficiently powerful to thoroughly
cleanse the system of Scrofulous and
Mercurial impurities and the pollution
of Contagious Diseases. 1t also neu-
tralizes the poisons left by Diphtheria
and Scarlet Fever, and enables rapid
recuperation from the enfeeblement and
debility caused by these diseases.

ROBUST Health

Is not always enjoyed by those who seem
blood may be secretly undermining the
constitution. In time, the poison will GER
tainly showits effects, and with all the more
virulence the longer it has been allowed
to permeate the system. Each pimple, sly,
boil, skin disorder and sense of unnatural
lassitude, or languor, is one of Natures
warnings of the consequences of neglect.
