Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
A COMPOUND REMEDY, in which wc
have labored to produce the most effectual altera
tive that can be made. It is a concentrated extract ot
Para Sarsaparilla, so combined with other substances ot
still greater alterat : ve power as to afford an effective an- .
fidote lor the diseases Sa-sa par ilia is reputed to cure. It I
is believed that such a remedy is wanteJ by t.iose who i
suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one which will
accomplish their cure must prove ol immense service to ;
this large class of our afflicted fellow citizens. How com- |
pletely this compound will do it has been proven by ex
perinenton many of the worst cases to be louud o tie
AND ERUPTIVE DISEASES, ULCERS, PIMPLES, BLOTCHES,
TUMORS, SALT RHEUM, SCALD HE, P. SYPHILLS ASP
SYPHILITIC AFFECTIONS,MERCIKIAL DISEASE, DKOIS\,
NEURALGIA OK TIC DOULOCKEUX. DEBILITY, DYSPEPSIA
AND INDIGESTION, ERYSIPELAS, LOSE OK ST. ANTHONY S
FIUE. and indeed the whole class ot complaints arising ;
from IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD.
This compound will be found a great promoter of .
health, when taken in the spring, to expel the toul hu
mors which fester in the blood at that season ol the year j
By the timely expulsion of them many rankliug disor. :
ders are nipped in the bud. Multitudes can by tlie ait. j
of this remedy, spare themselves from the endurance ot
foul eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which toe .
system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not as- ,
siste A to do this through tlie natural channels ot t e
body by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the vitiated ;
blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through |
the skin iu pimpies, eruptions, or sores ; cleanse it when |
You find it is obstructed and sluggish in tlie veins; .
cleanse it whenever it is foul, and your lee.ings wnl tell ,
vou when. Even where no particular disorder is telt,
people enjoy better be.iith. and live longer, for cleansing
the blood. Keep the blood healthy, and all is well ; but
with this pabulum of life disordered, there can be no
lasting health. Sooner or later something must go
wrong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or
overthrown.
Sarsaparilla has. and deserves much, the reputation,
of accomplishing these ends. But tlie world has been
egregionsly deceived by prepar.itions ot it, partly ueeame
the drug alone has not all the virtue, that is claimed jor
it, but more becausem nv prep..rati ms. pretending to be
concent rated extracts o it, cout 1 11 but litt.e ol ttie v 11-
tue of Barsaparill.i, or any thing else.
Dating late years th • public h ve been imsied by large
Dottles, pretending to give a quart o! Extra'A ot Sar-a
parilla for one dollar. Most of these have b-i-n frauds
upon the sick, for they not only centain little, if any. j
Sac.-a) in ilia, hptoften no curative properties whatever.
Hence, bitter and painful disappointment- has followed
the use of the various extracts ol •-ar-ap a ido wliic 1
flood the mniket. until the name its R is justly de.-pised,
and has become .synonymous with imposition an 1 • He " •
Still we call this compound Kar.-apariila, and intend to
supply such a remedy a shall re- ue the name tr 111 the
load of obloquy which rests upoh it. And we think we ,
have ground lor believing it has virtues w.iich aie ir
resistable by the ordinary 1:111 of the discus's it is intend
ed to erne. In order t seine ihe,r complete orad.

"To be, or not to lie— hat is the question !
Whether'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous opposition,
Or by taking up arms against a sea of printing ink,
And opposing, end them."
Till K proprietor of the Argus takes occasion in adver
tising his Bindery to indulge in an uncalled for iiing
about a " sort of a concern," which is hoping " to delude
the public." As 1 have opened a Bindery c;i my own ac
count, the inference is that if the public bring their
binding to me, they are in no danger of being defrauded.
For two years 1 have worked for Mr. PARSONS, and he
lias taken great pains t satisfy the public 1 was the " best
Binder in America," as the columns of the Argus wil
testify. Has he been all that time " deludiug the pub
lie?" If 1 have been engaged iu a fraud, he has been th
principal. But I refer to my work during that time a
evidence that there has beer, no fraud practiced.
Having served a long apprenticeship at the Bindery
business, 1 have resumed business here on my own ac
count,as 1 know of nothing which prevents me from fol
lowing a legitimate and Lawful calling tor my support.—
I shall endeavor by good work and attention to my busi
ness to give public satisfaction.

Celebrated Threshing Machines,
EMERY'S ONE AND TWO HORSE POWERS, are
too well and popularly known to need any description
from me, and I will only say that they continue to de
serve the reputation they have enjoyed for ten years of
being tne " best Endless Chain Horse Power in use."
These Powers possess conveniences and advantages pos
sessed by no other power.
EMERY'S NEW PATENT
THRESHER AND CLEANER
This a new Machine, and has not before been intro
duced into this region. It has no endless chain straw
carrier, but separates all kinds of grain thoroughly from
the straw, by a combination of Pitts' Endless Canvass
Celled Apron, a new Improved Revolving Picker, and
the well known Vibrating Riddle. It is a simple durable
and efficient Machine, will thresh rapidly and clean thor
oughly. without wasting, all kinds of grain. It will not
choke, run easily and steadily, without jumping, and is
warranted to be superior to the common Rake" Cleaner
now in use. It remains only to l>e seen and tested, to be
pronounced by every experienced hand at threshing to
be an admirably contrived and constructed Thresher and
Cleaner.
EMERY'S IMPROVED THRESHERS & SEP/SRATERS
are not excelled by any in market, are well constructed,
simple and durable. lam prepared to supply all kinds
