Do you know all liquid sarsaparilla and blood
purifiers are unsafe to use? They contain a large
proportion of alcohol which not only neutralizes
to considerable extent their medicinal qualities
but is liable to create an appetite for alcoholle
stimulants. To the young they are particularly
dangerous, and parents cannot be too careful 10
avoid them. The danger OF arousing any latent
tendency TO alcoholism cannot ID 0yerestlmated.
G. E. Lane, M. d., promlnent Boston fhyslc,
ian says: "In my opinion liquid sarsaparllla ana
other blood purifiers are unsafe to be given 10
children as they contain alarge percentage OF al
cohol. Cases have come under my observation in
which there is no doubt the appetite for stimu-
lants was acquired by using medicines OF this
class Therefore it gives ime great pleasure to
use and recommend strictly non-alcoholic sar-
SARSAPARILLA
saparilla, Dinsmores sarsaparilIa Waters.
Iregard them as the best and most convenient
blood purifier in use."
G. W. Calvin, M. d., United States Hotel
Boston, says: Il have always disapproyed OF
liquid sarsaparillas, and consider them especially
injurious to invadS and children because OF their
large percentage of alcohol"
OinsmOre's sarsapariila Wafers are COLL
pounded of pure Spanish Sarsaparilla combined
with the best vegetable remedies known 70

eating disease and strengthening and building up
the tired and languid system. Prepared only by

Want of Sleep

Ia sending thousands annually to the
insane asylum and the doctors say this
trouble is alarmingly on the increase.
The usual remedies, while they may
give temporary relief, are likely to do
more harm than good. What is needed
is an Alternative and Blood-purifer.
Ayers Sarsaparilla is incomparably
the best. 1t corrects those disturbances
in the circulation which cause sleepless-
ness. gives increased vitality, and re-
stores the nervous system to healthful
condition.
Rev. t. G. A. Cote, agent of the Mass.
Home Missionary Society, writes that
his stomach was out of order, his sleep
very often disturbed, and some i'm
purity of the blood manifest but that
perfect cure was obtained by the use
of Ayers Sarsaparilla.
Frederick W. Pratt, 424 Washington
street, Boston, writes: My daughter
was Frustrated with nervous debility.
Ayers Sarsaparilla restored her to
health"
William F. BowSer, Erie, Pa, was
cured Of nervousness and sleeplessness
by taking Ayers Sarsaparilla for about
two months, during which time his
weight increased over twenty pounds.
