itl Well, we're much in the
condition Of the Bishop and the

said, "God might have made
better berry. But doubtless,
also, He never did. Why
don't we better the sarsaparilla1
We can't. We are using the

Indians and the Spaniards. It
has not been bettered. And
since ere make sarsaparilla CON-

we see no way of improvement.
OF course, il we were making

We're making the same old sar-
saparilla to cure the same old
diseases. You can tell it's the
same old sarsaparitta be-
cause it works the same old
cures. It's the sovereign blood
purifier, and-it's Ayers.
