Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
\ COMPOUND BEMFDY, designed to be tbe roostef- j
feetual Attentive tit it can be made, ft is a eon- !
(•• ntrutei) extract of I'.iu Sai-ujia ill la r.onibinod with
other substances of still greater alterative power as to j
afford an effective antidote lor the dist aH-s Bar*aporill\is i
reputed to cure. It is believed Unit such a remedy is i
wanted ley those who suffer Iroin Strumous complaints, j
and that one which will accomplish their core must prove
oi immense service to this large class ot our afflicted lei
low-citizens. How completely this compound will do it
has been proven by experiment on many of the worst
cases to l>e found ot the following complaints :
SUKOEI LA AND SOROKUI.OI-8 CoMl'l. AI NTS, EBrWinN9
ANI> EKLfTIVE DISEASES , L'LCIHM, I'IMIM.ES, BIoTC'DES, ,
TI MOKR, SALT P.HEI m. SCALD HEAD, SVPHII.IS AND SY- j
rnii.iTic A KfKcTtoNs, MKKLTKIAI. Disease, DKOP.-Y,NEV
KAI.nia OK TIC IfOCLOCKEI X, DEBIEITY, DYSPEPSIA AND
INDIGESTION. KKYSIPKEAS, HOSE OK ST. ANTHONY'S FIKK,
and indeed the whole class of complaints arising Irom
i IMPURITY op THE BLOOD
i This compound will be found a great promoter of
J health, when taken in the spring, to expel the foul hu
! mors wnich fester in the blood at that *"ason of the year.
By the timely expulsion of them many rankling disor- ]
iters are nipped in the hud. Multitudes ran. by tbe ai.l
of this remi dy. spare themselves from the endurance ol j
eruptions and uleere.ns sores, through which the system 1
will strive to rid itsell of corruptions, it not assisted to I
do this through the natural channels of the body by an j
alterative men cine. Cleanse out the vitiated Mood ;
whenever you lind its impolitic, bursting through the
skin in pimples, eruptions. or sores ; ileanse it when you
lind it is obstructed and sluggish in the veins ; cleanse it
whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell you w hen.
Even where no particular disorder is telt ]M'<".ple enjoy
better health. Btid live longer, for rleansing the blood.
Keep the nlood healthy, and all is well ; but with this
pabulum of life disordered, there can be no lasting health,
Sooner or later something must go WII ng, end the gnu
machinery ol lite is disordered or overthrown.
Sarsaparilla has, ai d deserves much, the reputation ot
accomplishing these ends. Hut the world has been egre- j
gioo-ly deceived by preparations of it. partly because
the drug alone has not all the virtue that is claimed for '
it. bot more because many preparations, pretending to |
be concentrated extracts ol it, contain but little ol the i
virtue of rtarsaparilla. or anything else.
During late years the public have been misled by large !
! lmttb-s. pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sarsa- j
j parillu for one unJlar. Most of these have been frauds
j upon the sick, lor they not only contain little, it any
j Sarsaparilla. but often no curative properties whatever, j
Hence, bitter and painful disappointment lias followed j
the use ol the various extracts of Sar- ipariila which i
j flood the market, until the name itsell is justly dc
j spi-ed.aiid ban become synonymous with imposition and
| cheat. Still we call this compliant* and in
j tend to supply sc.eh a remedy as shall rescue the name
j tront the hold of obloquy whidh rests upon a. And we
! think we have ground lor believing it lias viitues which
I aie irresistible by the ordinary run of the diseases it i- '
intended to cure. In order to secure their complete
cruili atioii from the system, the remedy should be judi
ciously taken a. coi .ling t > directions on the b ittle.
