This medicine, for nearly fifty years,
has enjoyed reputation, and made
record for cures, that has never been
equaled by other preparations. AYERS
Sarsaparilla eradicates the faint of he
reditary scrofula and other blood dis
eases from the system, and it has, deser-
vedly, the confidence of the people.
