jSSt" Henry Ward Beecher, in his lecture on
Extravagance philosophises thus :—" t is not ex
travagiint 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 pleasure
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 whieh we infer that walls speak too. These

appearance and inviting look, say, "We are cheer

PROF. WOOD : —Thee wilt please accept a. lino to
in'or in thee that Ibe hair on my head all fell off
over twenty years ago, 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,

neither have I been able to do tbem up, in conse
quence of which my head has suffered extremely

tho first of August last. I have faithfully follow

with hair thick and blatk, though short, it is also

PROF. 0. J. WOOD: Dear Sir:—ln tho latter
part of the year 1852, while attending tho Stats
and National Law School of the State of New
York, my hair, frctn a cause unknown to me, com
menced falling off very rapidly, so that in the
short space of six months, the whole upper part of
my scalp was almost entirely bereft of its cover
ing, and much of the remaining portioa upon tho
sido and back part of my head short'y after be
came gray, so that you will not be surprised when
I tell you that upon my return to the State of In
diana, my more casual acquaintances were not so
mucL at a loss to discover the cause of the change
in my appearance, as my more intimate acquain
ces were to reoognize 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 1857, 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 moDey 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 use 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
FOR PURIFYING THE BLOOD.
Ami for the speedy cure of the following complaints:
Scrofula and Scrofulous A flections, such
as Tumors, Ulcers, Sores, Eruptions,
Pimples, Pustules, Blotches, Bolls,
Blains, and all Skin Diseases.
OAKLAND, Ind.. 6th June, 1859.
J. C. AYER A Co. Gents: I feel it my duty to so,
: knowledge what your Sarsaparilla has done for me.
' Having inherited a Scrofulous infection, I have suffered
| from it in various ways for years. Sometimes it burst
| out in I'leers on my hands and arms; sometimes it
| turned inward and distressed me at the stomach. Two
i years ago it broke out on tuy head aud covered my scalp
I aud ears with one sore, which was painful and loathsome
beyond description. 1 tried many uiediuiues ami several
physicians, but. without much relief from any thiag. in
fact, the disorder grew worse. ,At length I was rejoiced
to read in the Gospel Messenger that you had prepared
an alterative (Sarsaparilla), for I jtnew from your reputa
tion that any thiirg you made must be good. I sent to
Cincinnati and gut if, and used it till it cured mo. I took
it, as yon advise, in small doses of a teaspoonful over a
mouth, and used almost three bottles. New and healthy
skin soon began to form under the scab, which after a
while fell off My skin is uow clear, and 1 kuow by my
feelings that the disease has gone frutu my system. You
call well helieva'that I feel what 1 am saying when 1 tt'll
you, that I hold you to be oue of the apostles of the age,
aud remain ever gratefully. Yours,
ALUtIiD B. TALLF.Y.
St. Anthony's Fire, Rose or Erysipelas,
Tetter anl Salt lthcuin, Scald Head,
Ringworm, Sore Eyes, Dropsy.
Br. Robert M. Preble writes from Salem, N. Y., 12th
Sept., 1859, that lie has cured an inveterate case of
Dropsy, which threatened to terminate fatally, by the
| persevering use of our Sarsaparilla, and ulso a dangeroHS
Malignant Erysipelas by large doses of the same; Bays
he cures the common Eruptions by it constantly.
Bronchocele, Goitre or Swelled Neck.
Zebulon Sloan of Prospect, Texas, writes : "Three hot
tics of your Sarsaparilla cured me from a Goitre a hid
eous swelling on the neck, which 1 had suffered from
over two years."
Ueitonrvhoen or Whites, Ovarian Tnmor,
Uterine Ulceration, Female Diseases.
Dr. J B. S. Chnnning, of New York City, writes ; "I
most cheerfully comply with the request of your agent in
saying I have found your Sarsaparilla a most excellent
alterative in the iiiiniereits complaints for which w(
employ such a remedy, but especially in Panale Disease!
of the Scrofulous diathesis. I have cured ntany inveter
ate cases of liencnrrhoea 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 kuowl
edge equals it for these female derangements."
Edward S. Marrow, of Newbury, Alio, writes, "A dan
gerous orarian tumor on one of the females in my family,
which had defied ali tlio remedies we could employ, hat
at length been completely cured by your Extract of Sar
saparilla. Our physician thought nothing but extirpa
tion could afford relief, hut he advised the trial of yon.
Sarsaparilla as the last resort before cutting, and it
proved effectual. After takingyour remedy eight weck9
Bo symptom of the disease remains."
Syphilis and Mex-etirial Disease.
NEW ORLEANS, 25th August, 1859.
BR. J. C. AYER: Sir, I cheerfully comply with the re
quest of your agent, nnd report to you some of the effects
I hare realized with your Sarsaparilla.
I have cured witli it, in my practice, most of the com
plaints for which it is recommended, and liavefonßd its
effects truly wonderful in the cure of Venereal and Mer
curial Disease. One of my patieuts had Syphilitic ulcers
in his throat, which were ronsuming his palifte aud tlio
top of hia mouth. Y'our Sarsaparilla, ateadily taken,
cured him in five weeks. Another was attacked by sec
ondary symptoms in his nose, and tiie ulceration had
euten away a considerable part of it, so that I believe tlio
disorder would soon reach his brain aud kill him. But it
yielded to my administration of your Snrsaparilla; tiie
ulcers healed, and lie is well again, not of course without
6ome disfiguration to his face. A wumun who had been
treated for the same disorder by mercury was suffering
from this poison in her hones. 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 ine, that
this Preparation from your laboratory must be a great
remedy; consequently, tlieso truly remarkable results
with it have not surprised me.
fraternally yours, G. V. LARIMER, M. D.
Rheumatism, Gout, Liver Complaint.
INDEPENDENCE, Preston Co., Va., 6th July, 1859.
BR. J. C. AYER: Sir, 1 have been afflicted witli a pain
ful chronic Rheumatism for a long time, which baffled tlio
skid of physicians, and slink to me in spite of all tho
remedies 1 could flud, until I tried your Sarsaparilla. Oue
bottle cured me in two weeks, and restored my general
health so much that I am fur better than before I was
attacked. 1 think it a wonderful medicine. J. fItEAM.
Jules Y. Getclieli. of St. Louis, writes: "I have licon
afflicted for years with an affection of the Liver, which
destroyed my health. I tried every thing, and every thing
failed to relieve me; and ] have been a broken-down man
for some years from no other cause than derangement of
the Liver. My beloved pastor, the Rev. Mr. Espy, advised
me to try your Sarsaparilla, because lie said lie knew you,
and any thing you made was wortii trying. By the bless
ing of God it lias cured me, and has so purified my blood
as to make a new man of me. I feel young again. The
best that can be said of you is not half good enough."

A great variety of cases have been reported to us whero
cures of these formidable complaints have resulted from
the use of this remedy, but our space here will not admit
thorn. 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 tins vital functions into vigorous action, and thus
overcomes disorders wliisli would be supposed beyond its
reach. Such a remedy lias long been required by the ne
cessities of the people, and we arc confident that this will
do for them ail that medicine can do.

This in a remedy so universally known to surpass any
other for the erne of throat and lung complaints, that it
is useless here to publisti the evidence of its virtues. Its
unrivalled excellence for coughs nnd colds, and its truly
wonderful cures of pulmonary disease, have made it
known throughout the civilized nations of the earth,
lew are the communities, or even families, among them
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 tiie dreadful fatality of these disorders, aud
ns they know, too. the effects of this 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.
