THE ELK ADVOCATE
Tirs peculiar taint or
Infection which wo
call ScnoFrLA lurki
in the constitutions of
multitudes of men. It
cither produces or is
produced ly nn en
feebled, vitiated state
p"L of the Mood, wherein
Jeft that lluid becomes in-
Lpnmniilint in cuslnitl
vinorous action, mid
Jflciives the system to
fall into disorder nnd
decay. The scrofulous contnminntion is va
riously caused by mcrcurinl disease, low
living, disordered digestion from unhealthy
food, impuro air, tilth, nnd filthy habits,
the depressing vices, ond, above nil, by
the vencmil infection. Whatever be its
origin, it is hereditary in the constitution,
descending " from parents to children unto
the third nnd fourth generation ;" indeed, it
cems to be the rod of Him who says, "i will
visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their
children." The diseases it originates take
various names, according to the organs it
iittncks. In the- lungs, Scrofula produces
tubercles, nnd finally Consumption j in the
glands, swellings which suppurate nnd be-
oruc ulcerous sores j in the stomach nnd
bowels, derangements which produce indi
gestion, dyspepsia, and liver complaints; on
the skin, eruptive and cutaneous Affection?,
These, nil having the same origin, require the
came remedy, viz., purification nnd invigora
tion of the blood. Purify the blood, nnd
these dangerous distempers leave you. With
feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you cannot
have health; with that "life of the flesh"
healthy, you cannot have scrofulous disease.
Ayer's Sarsaparilla
r compounded from the most effectual anti
dotes that medical science has discovered for
this afflicting distemper, and for the cure of
the disorders it entails. That it is far supe
rior to any other remedy yet devised, is
known by ull who have given it a trial. That
it docs combine virtues truly extraordinary
in their effect upon this class of complaint",
is indisputably proven by the great multitude
of publicly known nnd remarkable cures it
lias made of the following' diseases : King's
Evil, or Glandular Swellings, Tumors,
Eruptions, Pimples, Blotches and Sores,
Erysipelas, Rose or St Anthony's Fire,
Salt Eheum, Scald Head, Coughs from
tuberculous deposits in the lungs, Whito
Swellings, Debility, Dropsy, Neuralgia,
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Syphilis and
Syphilitic Infections, Mercurial Diseases,
Female Weaknesses, and, indeed, the whole
scries of complaints that arise from impurity
of the blood. Minute reports of individual
'ases mny be found in Avr.u's Amkmcak
Almanac, which is furnished to the druggists
for gratuitous distribution, wherein may bo
learned tlio directions for its use, and some
of the remarkable cures which it has mado
frhen all other remedies had failed to afford
fclieC Those cases are purposely taken
from aU sections of the country, in order
ithat every reader may have access to some
one who can speak to him of its benefits from
personal experience. Scrofula depresses the
vital energies, nnd thus leaves its victims far
more subject to disease and its fatal results
.than are healthy constitutions. Hence it
tends to shorten, and does greatly shorten,
the average duration of human life. The
vast importance of these considerations lias
led us to spend years in perfecting a remedy
jvhich is adequate to its cure. This wo now
offer to the public under the name of A r Kit's
fAusAi'AiiiLLA, although it is composed of
ingredients, tome of which exceed the best
of Sartnparilla in alterative power. By its
aid you may protect yourself from the suffer
ing and danger of these disorders. Purge
out the foul corruptions that rot and fester
in the blood, purge out the causes of disease,
nnd vigorous health will follow. By its pecu
liar virtues this remedy stimulates the vital
functions, nnd thus expels the distempers
which lurk within the system or burst out
on any part of it.
We know the public have been deceived
ly many compounds of Harsaparila, that
promised much and did nothing; but they
will neither be deceived nor disappointed in
this. Its virtues liavo been proven by abun
dant jtrial, and there remains no question of
its surpassing excellence for the cure of the
iilmcting diseases it is intended to reach.
Although under the same nnme, it is a very
different medicine from nny other which has
been before the people, nnd is far more ef
fectual than any other which has ever been
available to them.
