AYERS PILLS.

A large proportion of the diseases which
cause human suffering result from derange-
ment of the stomach, bowels, and liver.
AYERS CATHARTIC PILLS act directly upon
these organs, and are especially designed to
cure the diseases caused by their derange-
ment, including Constipation, Indiges-
ton, Dyspepsia, Headache, Dysentery,
and a host of other ailments, for all of
which they are safe, sure, prompt, and
pleasant remedy. The extensive use of these
PILLS by eminent physicians in regular prac-
tice, shows Enthusiastically the estimation in
which they are held by the medical profess
sion.
These PILLS are compounded of vegetable
substances only, and are absolutely free from
calomel or any other I'M urious ingredient.
A Sufferer from Headache writes:
"AYER's PILLS are invaluable to me, and
are my constant companion. | have been
a severe sufferer from Headache, and your
PILLS are the only thing / could look to
for relief. One dose will quickly move my
bowels and free my head from pain. They
are the most effective and the easiest physic
have ever found. 1t is pleasure to me to
speak in their praise, and ! always do so
when occasion offers.

less instances as recommended by you, and
have never known them to fail to accomplish
the desired result We constantly keep them
on hand at our home, and prize them as
pleasant, safe, and reliable family medicine.
FOR DYSPEPSIA they are invaluable.
j. T. HAYES"
Mexia, Texas, June II, 1882.
The REV. FRANCIS B. HARLowE, writing
from atlanta, Ga, says: For some years
past / have been subject to constipation,
from which, in spite of the use of medi-
cines of various kinds, suffered increasing
inconvenience, until some months ago
began taking AYERS PILLS. They have
entirely corrected the costive habit, and
have vastly improved my general health.''
AYERS CATHARTIc PILLS correct irregu-
larities of the bowels, stimulate the appe-
tite and digestion, and by their prompt and
thorough action give tone and vigor to the
whole physical economy.

No printed periodical can take the place of
parent, pastor school teacher; but a good
magazine can supplant their work and Influence
to wonderful degree. In view of this. it is
not extrayagant to say that-instead of 'Can we
afford to take ST. Nicholas?"-the question of
every earnest household in English-speaking
countries to-day, should be ''Can we afford NOT
to take st Nicholas?'
The magazine during its eleven happy wears
OF existence, under the editorial charge of
MARY MAPES DODGE,
has grown familiar to hundreds eff thousands OF
young readers; and their interest and intelligent
enjoyment have constantly inspired the edit r
strength is in its wholesome growth, its sympathy
with young lite, its hearty recognition of the
good things already secured for future numbers
