None But Ayers at the Worlds Fair.
Ayers Sarsaparilla enjoys the extra
ordinary distinction of having been the
only blood purifier allowed on exhibit at
the worlds fair, Chicago. Manufact-
urers of other sarsaparillas sought by
every means to obtain showing of their
goods, but they were all turned away

worlds fair authorities in favor of Ayers
Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows !:
"Ayer's Sareaparilla is not patent
medicine. 1t does not belong to the
list of nostrums. It is here on its
merits"
