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 ol
P-ira Sarsaparilla, so combined with other substances oi
still greater alterat ; ve power as to afford an effective an
tidote for the diseases Fa-sapor ilia is reputed to cure. 11
is believed that such a remedy is wante.l by those who
suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one u Inch w ill
accomplish their cure must prove of immense semee o

FIKE, and indeed the whole class ot complaints anmu 0
lro.n IMPURITY or THE BLOOD.
This compound v. i.l be found a great promoter of
Health, when taken in the spring, to expel tue lout hu
mors which fester in the blood at that season of t.ie year
T.v tlic timely expulsion of them many rankling elisor
ders arc nipped in the bud. Multitudes can by Rio aid
of this remedy, spare themselves from the endurance o.
h.ul eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which tue
FY -* cm will strive to rid itself of corruptions, il not as
sisted to do this through the natural channels of tue
body l>y an alterativemeoiciae. Cleanse out the Mtiaic'i
blood whenever vou find its iuipuriHes bin nng through
the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores ; cleans-v. bui
you find it is obstructed aud sluggish in tnc vcm.-, .
cleanse it whenever it is foul, and your fccmi-s w i,l tel.
you when. Even where no paraeular disorcer is let
people enjoy belter health, and live longer. t;r cleans ug
the blood. Keep the blood healthy, ami an is wed , but
with this pabulum of life disudeied, there can he no
lasting health. Sooner or later something m.i>t go
wrong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or
overthrown.
Sarsaparilla lias, and closetves much, t:e re,)iu.uie.i,
cf accomplishing these ends. But the vvor.d lias been
egregiom-lv deceived by preparations ot it . partly oecause
the drug alone has not all the virtue that e ciuii.iect joi
it, but more because ni. it\ preparations, prc-tencling to oe
concentrated extracts of it, contain but iittle ot the \n
tue of Sarsapari'la, or any tiling else.
During late ceais the public hive been misled by large
nettles, pretending to give a quart ot Extract ot i-arsa
parilla for one dollar. Most ot these- hive necn hauus
unon the sick, for they in>t only contain little, it any,
Sarsaparilla, bntoften no curative properties whatever.
Hence, bitter and painiul disappointment has toitoweu
the use of .ins various extracts of Sarsaparilla wlucli
Hood the market, until the name it- If i- • istiy desp:seel,
ml has become sync uvinous with iui;osilion and cheat.
Still we •.•all this compound Sarsaparilla, and iu'.cim to

I'hese Powers possess conveniences and advantages pos

EMERY'S NEW PATENT
THRESHER AND CLEANER
This a new Machine, and has not before been intro
duced into this region. It lias 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 (lie common Rake Cleaner
now in use. It remains only to be seen and tested, to be
pronounced by every experienced hand at threshing, to
he an admirably contrived and constructed Thresher and
Cleaner.
