Our rs and....
....Other Eyes.

Our I's are just as strong as
they were fifty years ago, when
we have cause to use them.
But we have less and less cause
to praise ourselves, since others
J do the praising, and we are
more than willing for you to see
us through other eyes. This
is how we look to S. F. Boyce,
wholesale and retail druggist,
I Duluth, MINI, who after n
quarter of q century of obser-
vation writes:
"I have sold Ayers Sarsapa-
ril1a for more than as years,
both At wholesale and retail,
and have never heard anything
but words of praise from my
customers; not single COM
plant has ever reached me. I
believe Ayers Sarsaparilla to
] be the best blood purifier, that
1 has been introduced to the gen.
era1 public" This, from q
] man who has sold thousands Of
\ dozens of Ayers Sarsaparil1a,
is strong testimony. But 1t
