JHfscclaneous. . Ayer's Sarsaparilla. A COMPOUND REMEDY, in which we have labored to produce the most effectual altera ive that can be made. It is a concentrated extract of Para Sarsaparilla, so combined with other substances of still greater alteraUve power as to afford an effective an tidote for the diseases Sa-saparilla is reputed to cure. It Is believed that such a remedy is wanteJ by those who suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one which will accomplish their cure must prove of immense service to this large class of our afflicted fellow-citizens. How com pletely this compound will do it has been proven by ex perinent on many of tbe worst cases to be found ot the toHowing complaints:— -SCROFULA, AND SCROFULOUS COMPLAINTS, LRUTTIONS AND EKUPTIVR DISEASES, UI.CKRS, PIMPLF.S, BLOTCHES, TUMORS. SALT RHEUM, SCALD HEAD, SYPHILLS AND SYPIJILITIC AFFECTIONS,MERCURIAL DISEASE, DROPSY, NEURALGIA OR TIC DOULOUREUX. DEBILITY, DYSPEPSIA AND INDIGESTION, ERYSIPELAS, ROSE OR ST. ANTHONY S FIRE, and indeed the whole class of complaints arising from IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD. This compound wi;l be found a great promoter of health, when taken in the spring, to expel tbe foul hu mors which fester in the blood at that season of the year By the timely expulsion of them many raukliug disor ders are nipped in the bud. Multitudes can by the aid of this remedy, spare themselves Iron the endurance of foul cruptious and ulcerous sores, through which the system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not as sisted to do this through the natural channels of tne body by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through , the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores ; cleanse it w hen you find it is obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleause it whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Even where no particular disoruei is left, people enjoy better health, 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 the world bus been egregioiisly deceived by preparations of it, partiy because the drug alone lias not all the virtue that is claimed jor it, but more because nrmy preparations, pretending to be concentrated extracts of it, contain but little ot the v ii tue or Sarsaparilla, or any thing else. Dm ing late years the public li ive been misled by large Dottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract ot Sarsn parilla tor one Most ot these have hoen fiauus j upon the sick, for tliey not only contain little, if any. Sarsaparilla, but often no curative properties whatever, lience. bitter and puinlul disappointment lias tollowed the use of the various extracts of Sar-aparilla which flood the market, until the name itself is justly despised, and hash cone synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still we call tliis compound Sarsaparilla. and intend to snpidv such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the I'ad of obloquy which rests upoh it. And we think we have ground tor .believing it has virtues which are ir-j resist idle by the "ordinary run of the diseases it is intend- j edtoerue. lo order to secure their complete eradica- j tjon from the system, the remedy should l>e judiciously i taken according to directions on the bottle.
