Scroftila, or King's Evil,
if* a constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiuted,
weak, and poor, Being in tlic circulation, it
pervades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may I
not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously
caused by merciuial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and lilthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
abovo all, by the venereal infection. What- )
ever be its origin, it is hereditary hi the con
stitution, descending * from purcnts to children
unto the third and fourth generation ;" indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, 44 1
will visit the iniquities of ilio fathers upon
their children."
Its effects commence by deposition from tho
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, wliich, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
tho surface, eruptions or sores. Tina foul cor
ruption, which genders in thAlood, depresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu
tions not only suffer from scrofulous com- j
plaints, but they have far less power to with- I
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse
quently, vast numbers perish by disorders |
which, although not scrofulous ift their nature, J
are still rend -red fatal by this taint in tho
system. Most of the consumption which do- '
cimutcs tho human family has its origin directly !
in this scrofulous contamination; and many \
destructive discuses of the liver, kidneys, bruiii| |
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or ;
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of ail our people arc Fcrofulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in- i
fcction, and their health is undermined by it. j
To cleanse it from the system we must renovate '
tho blood by an alterative medicine, and in- j
vi go rate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such a medicine we supply in
AVER'S
Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla,
the most effectual remedy which the medical j
skill of our times ran devise for this every j
where prevailing and fatal malady. It is com
bined from the most active remediate thnt have
been discovered for the expurgation of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of tho
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should be employed for the euro of
not only scrofula, but al o those other afire- j
lions which arise from it, such as EKUPTIVE I
and SKIN DISEASES, ST. ANTHONY'S Finn,
HOSE, or ERYSIPKT.AS, PIMPLES, PUSTULES, \
BLOTCHES, BLA INS and BOILS, TUMORS, TETTER
and SALT KUF.TWI, SCAI,I> HEAD, RINGWORM,
RHEUMATISM, SYPHILITIC and MHRCUHIAL DIS
EASES, DROPSY, DYSPEPSIA, DEKILITV, and,
indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITIA
TED OR IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief
in 14 impurity of the blood, " is founded in truth,
for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa
rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid,
without wliich sound health is impossible in
contaminated constitutions.
Ayer's Cathartic Pills,
FDR ALL THE PURPOSES OF A FAMILY PHYSIC,
are so composed that disease within tho range of
their action can rarely withstand or evade them
Their penetrating properties search, and cleanse,
and invigorate every portion of the human organ
ism, correcting its di&cased action, and restoring
its healthy vitalities. As a consequence of these
properties", the invalid who is towed down with
pain or physical debility is astonished to find his
health or energy restored by a remedy at once so
simple arc! inviting.
Not only do tlicy cure the every-day complaints
of every oot'y, but also many formidable and
dangerous diseases, Tho agent below named is
pleased to furnish gratis my American Alumnae,
containing certificates of their cures and dire ctions j
for their use in the following complaints: i oative
tie if s, Heartburn, Headache urisingfrom disordered
Stomach, A auscn, Indiejc: tion, J'mn in and Morbid
Inaction of the Move's, Flatulency, Loss of Appe
tite, Jaundice, ami other kindred complaints,
arising from a low state of die body or obstruction
of its functions.
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,
FOR TIIE ILAPID CURB OP
Coughs, Colds, Influeuzn, Ilonrscness,
Croup, liroiichitin, Incipient Consump*
t on, and for the relief of Consumptive
Patients in tidvuaced stages of the
disease.
To wide it the field of it* usefulness and so nu
merous are the cases of its cures, that almost
every section of country abounds in portions pub
licly known, who have been restored from alarming
and even desperate diseases of the lungs by its
use. When once tried, its superiority over every
other medicine of its kind is too apparent to escape
observation, and where its virtues are known, the
public no longer hesitate what antidote to employ
for the distressing and dangerous afTcctions of the
pulmonary organs that nre incident to our climate.
While many inferior remedies thrust upon the
community have failed and been discarded, this
has gained friends by every trial, conferred benefits
on the afllictcd they enn never forget, and pro
duced cures too numerous and too remarkable to
be forgotten.

i Dear Madam—The reputation of ihe Med
ical discovery, in coring all kind of humors,
Jis so well established by the unanimous
| voice of all who have ever used i>, that t
I need not ay any thing on the subject, a
j the most skilful physicians and the most
careful Druggist in the country are uuani
| minis in lis praise.
j In preseu<ing the Medical Discovery to
j your amice, I do it with a lull knowledge of
j its curative power, in relieving all, and cur
| ing rnosi ol those diseases io which you sre
j unfortunately so liable. The most excruci
i ating disease to an affectionate mother,
NURSING SORE MOUTH,
{ Is cured as if by a miracle; your own tem
j per is restored to its natural sweetness, and
, | your babe from short and fretful nn'ps to
j calm and sweet slumbers; anil Ihe medical
, I discovery becomes a fountain of blessing to
j your husband and houshold,
I lu the advanced stages ol
€AN K E K
' il extends to ihe stomachy causing
DYSPEPSIA,
i which is nothing but canker on the stomach
I then to the intestines and
Kidneys,
creating a sinking, gone leeling, anil an in.
difference even lo the cares of your family.
Your stomach is
RAW AND INFLAMED,
your food distresses you, am) you can only
j take certain kinds, and even of that your
, system doss not get half the nourishment if
I contains as the acrimonous fluid of the eank
| er eats it up; then yonr complexion loses its
; bloom ami becomessallow and greenish, and
j yonr bet day is gone. For want of nourish}
nient yonr system becomes loose and flabby,
and ihe fibres of jour body becomes relax}
ed. Then follows a train of disease which
the Medical Discovery is peculiarly adapted
| 'o CURE; Palpitation of the heart, pain in
the side, weakness of the snine and small of
J the hack, pain ol the hip joint when you re
j tire, irregularity ol I lie bowels, and also, that
most excruciating of disease, the
r I L E s.
How many thousands ol poor women are
suffering from this disease and pining away
: a miserable life, and their npxt door neigh
' bor does not know the cause, I wish lo im
i press on your mind that good old proverb,
j "An ounce of prevention is belter than a
! pound of cure." In the
Medical Discovery
j you have boih the preventive and the cure,
I with this great and good quality, that il will
never under any circumstances, do you any
i injury.
j No change of diet ever necessary—sat the
. | best you can get and enough of it.
| ' Directions for use.—Adults one tablespoon'
