Ayer's Sarsaparilia, VOR I'lllJU lI.'V? HIB BIOOU. I vl ?K ? A ?'"i (y ' The reputation this ex* cellout medicine unjoys. Is derived from its cures, many of which ere truly marvellous. Inveterate oasos of Scrofulous dis ease! where the s/item Bcemcd saturated with corruption, have beca puriilcd and cured by it. Scrofulous affections and disorders,whicli wore ng gravatcd by tho scrofu lous contamination until they wcro palnfullv afflicting, have been radically cured In sue*' greift numbers In almost every sec tion of tho country, that tho public scarcely need to be info'ined of its virtues or uses. ScofuK us poison is ono of tho most destruc tive enemies of our raco. Often, this unseen and unlult tenant of tho organism undermines tho con stitution, and invites the attack of enfeebling or fa tal disonsos, without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again, it seems to breed infection throughout the body, and then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop into one or other of its hideous forms, either on tho surfaco or among the vitals. In tho latter, tubercles may be suddenly deposited In tho Innga or heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or It shows its presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcorauons on somo part of the body. Hence tho occasional use of a bottlo of this Sarsaparllla is advisable, oven when no active symptoms of disease appear. Persons af flicted with tho following cum plaints generally hud immediate relief, ami, at length, core, by tno use or tills .s.t its.1PA u I I. I, A: Bt. Antho ny's Eire.

Also in the moro con. cealcd forms, as Dyspepsia, Dropsy, JIear\ Disease, Etta, Epilepsy, Neuralgia, any the various Uleerous affections of the lnusculM and nervous systems. Syphilis or Vcnr.eal and Mercurial Dis eases aro cured by it. though a long time is re quired for subduing these ode Una to maladies by any medicine. lint long-continued use of this medicine will cure tho complaint. Eeueorrhaa or IVhltes, Uterin? tTlcerations. and Eetnale Diseases, aro commonly soon rclioved and ulti mately c?red by Its purifying and invigorating effect. Minute directions for each caro aro found in our Almanac, supplied gratis. Rheumatism and Oout, when caused by accumulations of ex traneous mattors In tho blood, yield quickly to It, aa(i\boZiverContplaints, Tornidity, Conges tion or Inflammation of tho JAver, and Jaun dice, when arising, as they offen do, from the rankling poisons in tho blood. This 8ARSA EARIIttiA is a great restorer for tho strength an?t vigor of tho system. Thoso who aro Lan guid and JAmtlemm, Despondent, Sleepless, and troubled with Nervous Apprehensions or Eears, or any of tho affections symptomatic of Weakness, will find immcdiato relief and con vincing evidence of its restorative power upon trial.
