Any sarsaparill.i is sarsaparilla. True. So any
tea is tea. So any Hour is flour. But grades dilTer.
You want the best. It's so with sarsaparilla. There
arc grades. You want the best. If you understood
sarsaparilla as well as you do tea nnd flour it
would be easy to determine. I5ut you don't. How
should you ?
When you arc goinr to buy a commodity
whose value you don't know, you pick out an old
established house to trade with, and trust their
experience and reputation. Do bo when buying
sarsaparilla.
Aycr's Sarsaparilla has been on the market
fifty years. Your grandfather used Aycr's. It is a

" You see, to start with," a!il a Cleveland, Ohio, compositor, my work
that of retting type at the c.v-c allows me Hula chance for exercise,
and is too confiniui; for am bo.ly who is in tlie least subject to iiidi(es

ute the recent noticeable improvement in my physical condition to tbe
occasional use of
RiPAMS Tabules
I first heard of them through a felliw-u'orkman who, on hearing my
tale ot woe, one day nlTered me a Tabule and said he would tfuanm
tce it to act on the liver. I took It under protest, but was surprised
with the result. It was gentle bus effect :e, and since then 1 have '
(radually noted an entire change in the working of my system, and
I think that Kipani Tabulrs are the best remedy for liyer and stomach 4
