Henry Ward Beccher, in his lecture on
Extravagance philosophises thus :—" t is not ex
travagant to wear jeweles and precious stones,
and to be arrayed in silks and satins and costly
vesture, not extravagant to indulge in handso ne
equipage and delightful parks and ploasure
grounds. Not extravagant to have a luxurious
home and costly appendages, provided always,
the cost of them is within our means to pay for
them." He is regarded as good authority on
what is beautiful, and says that houses speak,
from which we infer that walls speak too. These
covered with tosteful Paper Hangings with neat
appearance and inviting look, say, "We arc cheer
ful, come enjoy our association," while others
hare or defaced, with repulsive look, repel, if'they
do not totally unfit one for business or employ

PROF. WOOD : —Thee wilt please accept a lino to
in r orm thee that the hair on my head all fell off
over twenty years igo, caused by a complicated
chronic disease, attended with an eruption on the
head. A continual course of suffering through
life having reduced me to a state of dependence,
I have not been able to abtain stuff for caps,
neither have I been able to do them up, in conse
quence of which my bead bas suffered extremely

PROF. O. J. WOOD: Dear Sir:—ln tho latter
part of the year 1852, while attending tho StatJ
and National Law School of the State of New
York, my hair, from a cause unknown to me, com
menced falling off' very rapidly, so that in the
short space of six months, the whole upper part ol |
my scalp was almost entirely bereft of its cover
ing, and much of the remaining portion upon tho
side and back part of tny head short" y after be- j
came gray, so that you will not be surprised when
I tell you that upon my return to the State of In- j
diana, my more casual acquaintances were not so
mucn at a loss to discover the cause of the change
in my appearance, as my more intimate aequain
ces were to recognize me at all.
I at once made application to the most skillful
physicians in the country, but. receiving no as
surance from them that my hair could again be
restored. I was forced to become reconciled to my
fate, until, fortunately, in the latter part of the
year 1557, your Restorative was recommended to
me by a druggist, as being the most reliable Hair
Restorative in use. I tried one bottle, and found
to my great satisfaction that it was producing the
desired effect. Since that time, I have used seven
dollars' worth of your Restorative, and as a re
sult, have a rich coat of very soft black hair,
which no money can buy.
As a mark of my gratitude for your labor and
skill in the production of so wonderful an article,
I have recommended its uso to many of my friends
and acquaintances, who, I am happy to inform
you, are using it with like effect. Very respect
fully, yours, A. M. LATTA,
Attorney and Counsellor at Law.

! Sarsaparilla
j FOR PURIFYING THE BLOOD.
Ami for the speedy cure of the following complaints:
Scrofula and Scrofulous Affections,sucb
as Tumors, Ulcers, Sores, Eruptions,
Pimples, Pustules, Klotclics, Bolls.
JBlains, and ail Skin Diseases.
OAKLAND* I nd., 6th June, 1559.
J. C. AYER & Co. Gents: I feel it my duty to a<\
j knowledge what your Sarsaparilla has done for nie.
! Having inherited a Scrofulous infection, I have suffered
• from it in various ways for years. Sometimes it burst
! out iu Ulcers on my hands and arms; sometimes it
| turned inward and distressed me at the stomach. Two
i years ago it fcruke out on luy head aud covered my scalp
j and etus with one sore, which was painful and loathsome
beyond description. I tried many medicines and several
physicians, but without much relief from any thing. In
fact, the disorder grew worse. % At length 1 was rejoiced
to read in the Gospel Messenger that you had prepared
an- alterative (Sarsaparilla), for I knew from your reputa
tion that any thing you made must be good. I sent to
Cincinnati and got it, and used it till it cured me. I took
it, as you advise, in small Uooea of a teaspoonful over a
mouth, and used almost three bottles. New and healthy
skin Boon began to for in under tho scab, which after a
while fell off. My skin is now clear, and 1 know by my
feelings that the disease Las gone from uiy system. You
can well believe'that I feel what I am saying when I toll
i you, that I hold you to he one of the apostloa of the age,
aud remain ever gratefully. Yours,
ALFRED B. TALLEY.
St. Anthony's Fire, Rose or Erysipelas,
Tetter and Salt Rlit um. Scald Head,
Ringworm, Sore Eyes, Dropsy.
I)r. Robert M. Preble writes from Salem, N. Y., 12th
Sept., 1859, that he has cured an inveterate case of
Dropsy . which threatened to terminate fatally, by the
persevering use of our Sarsaparilla, and also a dangerous
Malignant Erysipelas by large doses of the same; eays
he cures the common Eruptions by it constantly.
Broncliocele, Goitre or Swelled Neck.
Zebulon Sloan of Prospect, Texas, writes : "Three hot
ties of your Sarsaparilla cured me from a Goitre a hid
eous swelling on tho neck, which 1 had suffered from
over two years."
Leurorvhcpn or Whites, Ovarian Tumor,
Uterine Ulceration, Female Diseases.
I)r. J B. S. Chnnning, of New York City, writes ; " I
r.iost cheerfully comply with the request of your agent in
saying I have found your Sarsaparilla a most excellent
alterative In the numerous complaints for which w(
employ such a remedy, but especially iu Female Diseases
of tho Scrofulous diniliesis. I have cured many inveter
ate cases of Leucorrhoea by it, and some where the com
plaint was caused by ulceration of the uterus. The ulcer
ation itself was soon cured. Nothing within my knowl
edge equals it for these female derangements."
Edward S. Marrow, of Newbury, writes, U A dan
gerous ovarian tumor on one of the females in my family,
which had defied all tho remedies we could employ, hat
at length been completely cured by your Extract of Sar
saparilla. Our physician thought nothing hut extirpa
tion could afford relief, hut he advised the trial of you.
Sarsaparilla as the last resort before cutting, and it
proved effectual. After taking your remedy eight weeks
no symptom of the disease remains."
Syphilis and Mercurial Disease.
NEW ORLEANS, 25T8 August, 1859.
T)n. J. C. AYER: Sir, I cheerfully comply with the re
quest of your agent, and report to you sonic of the effects
I bare realized with your Sarsaparilla.
I have cured with it, in my practice, most of the com
plaints for which it is recommended, and have foil ml its
effects truly wonderful in the cure of Venereal and Mer
curial Disease . One of my patients had Syphilitic ulcers
in his throat, which were consuming his pakfte aud tho
top of his mouth. Your Sarsaparilla, steadily taken,
cured him in five weeks. Another was attacked by sec
ondary symptoms in his nose, and the ulceration had
eaten away a considerable part of it, so that 1 believe tho
disorder would soon reach his brain and kill liiiu. But it
yielded to my administration of your Sarsaparilla; the
ulcers healed, and he is well again, not of course without
some disfiguration to his face. A woman who had been
treated for the same disorder by mercury was suffering
from this poison in her bones. They had become so sen
sitive to the weather that on a damp day she suffered ex
cruciating pain in her joints and bones. She, tco, was
cured entirely by your Sarsaparilla in a few weeks. I
know from its formula, which your agent gave me, that
this Preparation from your laboratory must be a great
remedy; consequently, these truly remarkable results
with it have not surprised lue.
Fraternally yours, G. Y. LARIMER, M. D.
Rheumatism, Gout, Liver Complaint.
INDEPENDENCE, Preston Co., Va., 6th July, 1859.
Bit. J. C. AYER: Sir, 1 have been afflicted with a pain
ful chronic Jtheamalism for a loug time, which baffled tho
skill of physicians, and stuck to me in spite of nil tho
remedies I could fiud, until I tried 3'our Sarsaparilla. Ouo
bottle cured me in two weeks, and restored my general
health so much that I am far better than before I was
attacked. I think it a wonderful medicine. J. PRE AM.
Jules Y. Getchell. of St. Louis, writes: "I have l>een
afflicted for years with an affection of the Liver , which
destroyed my health. I tried every thing, aud every thing
failed to relieve r * and 1 have been a broken-down man
for some years !'■ .an no other cause than derangement of
the Liver. My beloved pastor, the Rev. Mr. Espy, advised
me to try your .Sarsaparilla, because he said he knew you,
1 and any thing you made was worth tryiug. By the bless
ing of God it has cured me, and has so purified my blood
as to make u new man of me. I fee! young again. The
best that can be said of you is not half good enough."
Schirrus,Cancer Tumors, Enlargement,
Ulceration, Caries and Kxfoliatiou of
the Bones.
A great variety of cases have been reported to us wliero
cures of these formidable compiuiuts have resulted from
tlie use of this remedy, but our space here will not admit
them. Some of them may be found in our American
Almanac, which the agents below named are pleased to
furnish gratis to all who call for them.
Dyspepsia, Heart Disease, Fits, Epilep
sy, Melancholy, Neuralgia-
Many remarkable cures of these affections have been
made by the alterative power of this medicine. It stimu
lates the vital functions into vigorous action, and thus
overcomes disorders whih would be supposed beyond its
reach. Such a remedy has long been required by the ne
cessities of the people, and we are confident that this will
do for them all that medicine can do.

This is a remedy so universally known to surpass any
other for the rule of throat and lung compiuiuts, that it
is useless hers to publish the evidence of its virtues, its
unrivalled cxcelleHce for roughs and colds, and its truly
wonderful cures of pulmonary disease, have made it
known throughout the civilized nations of the earth.
Few are tlie communities, or even families, among tliem
who have not some personal experience of its effects
some living trophy in their midst of its victory over the
subtle and dangerous disorders of the throat and lungs.
As all know the dreadful fatality of these disorders, and
ns they know, too. tlie effects of iliis remedy, we need not
do more than to assure them that it has now all the vir
tues that it did have when making the cures which have
won so strongly upon the confidence of mankind.
