after which it moves easily. When the
joints, or hinges, of the body are stiffened
and infamed by rheumatism, they can
not be moved without causing the most
excruciating pains. Ayers Sarsaparilla,
by its action on the blood, relieves this
condition, and restores the joints to good
working order.
Ayers Sarsaparilla has effected, in our
city, many most remarkable cures, in
cases which baffied the efforts of the
most experienced physicians. Were it
necessary, could give the names OF
