DYSPEPSIA.

Sedentary habits, mental worry, nervous
excitement, excess or imprudence in eat
induce Constipation followed by general
arrangement of the liver, kidneys, and
stomach, in which the disorder of each
organ increases the infirmity of the Others
The immediate results are Loss of Appe-
tite, Nausea, Foul Breath, Heartburn, Flat
ulence, Dizziness, Sick Headaches, failure
of physical and mental viger, distressing
sense of weight and fullness in the stomach,
and increased Costiveness, all of which are
known under one head as Dyspepsia.
Inevery instance where this disease does
not originate from scrofulous faint in the
blood, AYERS PILLS may be confidently
relied upon to effect cure. Those cases
not amenable to the curative influence OF
AYERS PILLS alone will certainly yield if
the PILLS are aided by the powerful blood
purifying properties of AYERS SARsAPA-
RILLA.
Dyspeptics should know that the longer
treatment of their malady is postponed,
the more difficult of cure it becomes.

to the effect that dividend would be declared

refraining from selling 1t to any great extent. Up
to the close of business nothing had been heard in
regard to the doings of the COMMITTEES. The stock
