AYER'S 



PILLS, 



FOR ALL THE PURPOSES OF A 



FAMILY PHYSIC. 



^HE:^E Pills have been prepared with a view to supply a more 

 reliable, sofer, and every way better aperient medicine than 

 -; hiiherto been available to the American people. No cost or 

 1 has been spared in bringing: them to the state of perfection, 

 ik-h now, after some years of laborious investi^tion, is actually 

 J.ize-i. Their every part and property has been carefully adjust- 

 by expeiiment to produce the best effect which, in the present 

 te of the medical sciences, it is possible to produce on the ani- 

 man. When we consider that four-fiftha of all 



ncident to the human race actually require nothing 



effectual purgative remedy to completely cure them in the 

 finning, we shall appreciate the utility of this invention ; and 

 en we further kTWW by experience the ease and rapidity with 

 ich they may be arrested by these Pills, then, and not till then, 

 1 we estimate the magnitude of the benefits to be derived from 

 fir use. They are not presented to the world for a temporary 

 1, but aa the skillful embodiment of such virtues as shall give 

 •m a perennial popularity, and permanent place, among the great 

 :artwledged remedies of this age. They will become the recourse 

 which men turn in affliction, and not in vain. Hence the ex- 

 •ise, time, and assiduous toil have not been misspent in pro- 

 ttng their unrivaled excellence; for it is a world-old maxim, 

 it all beautiful and useful inventions are the fruits of a thousand 

 lors and difficulties. 



The subjoined communication is authenticated by some of the 

 't statesmen in America, as well as other distinguished persons 

 high public position, who are known throughout the whole 

 tntrv, and whose opinions command respect wherever they are 



Ifter numerous trials of Dr. Ayer's Cathartic Pills, both under 

 own ob''ervation and under the immediate inspection of our 

 inent physicians in the city of Washington, I am convinced that 

 •y are an aperient medicine of unrivalled escellence. They have 

 >"wn a remarkable control over the diseases for which they are 

 ii'ned, and in numerous cases effected cures, which conclusively 

 ive their superiority over every purgative within our knowledge. 

 1 extensive trial of their virtues has convinced me that they 

 ,st be adopted into general use, as the safest and best medicine of 

 ftir kind which the people can employ in the many cases where 

 ':h a medicine is required.

 Afi A DisxER Pill, this is both agreeable and useful. No Pill 

 1 be made more pleasent to take, and certainly none has been 

 ♦de more effectual to the purpose for which a dinner pill is em- 

 lyed. Pereons of a bilious habit find great comfort from their. 

 easional use, in small doses, after eating or drinking too freely, 

 *ny ban vivants and clisting>::shed Individuals have acknowledged- 

 ese benefits; but we have not yet received authenticated certifi- 

 tes of this fact for publication, and hence must ask the public to 

 te this on our own unsupported assertion, or else try them and 

 ige for themselves. 



Being sugar wrapped, thoy are protected from detorioration, and, 

 nsequently, are more reliable in their effects, as well as perfectly 

 reeable to be taken.

AYER'S CHERRY PECTORAL, 



iT the rapia Care of Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Bronchi- 

 tis, Whooping Cough, Croup, Asthma, & Consumption. 

 ThJ« remedy ha3 won for itaelf such notoriety from Its cures of 



every variety of pulmonary disease, that it is entirely unnecessary 

 to recount the evidences of its virtues in any community where it 

 has been employed. So wide is tlie field of its usefulness, and 90 

 numerous the ca.ses of its cures, that almost every .section of the 

 country abounds in persons publicly 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 obser\-ation, and where ita virtues 

 are known, the public no longer hesitate what antidote to employ 

 for the distressing and dangerous affections of the pulmonary or- 

 gans which are incident to our climate. And not only in formida- 

 ble attacks upon the lungs, but for the milder varieties of C0LD8, 

 Coughs, Hoarsenkss, &c.; and for Chilpken, it is the pleaaantest 

 and safest medicine that can be obtained. 



As it has long been in constant use throughout this section, we 

 need not do more than assure the people its quality is kept up to 

 the best it ever has been, and that the genuine article is sold by 



LANE & PANE, and W. PITKIN & SON, Rochester; DEMA- 

 REST k HOL^L\N, Buffalo ; and by aU Druggists every where.
