DEMANDS 
That only honest and reliable medicines 
should be placed upon the market. It can- 
not, therefore, be stated too emphatically, 
nor repeated too often, that all who are in 
need of a genuine Blood- purifier should be 
sure and ask for 
Ayers 
Sarsaparilla. Your life, or that of some one 
near and dear to you, may depend on the use 
of this well-approved remedy in preference 
to any other preparation of similar name. It 
is compounded of Honduras Sarsaparilla (the 
variety most rich in curative properties), 
stillingia, mandrake, yellow dock, and the 
iodides. The process of manufacture is origi- 
nal, skillful, scrupulously clean, and such as 
to secure the very best medicinal qualities of 
each ingredient. This medicine is not boiled 
nor heated, and is, therefore, not a decoction; 
bntit is a compound extract, obtained by a 
method exclusively our own, of the best and 
most powerful alteratives, tonics, and diur- 
etics known to pharmacy. For the last forty 
years, Ayer’s 
Sarsaparilla 
has been the standard blood-purifier of the 
world—no other approaching it in popular 
confidence or universal demand. Its formula 
is approved by the leading physicians and 
druggists. Being pure and highly concen- 
trated, it is the most economical of any pos- 
sible blood medicine. Every purchaser of 
Sarsaparilla should insist upon having this 
preparation and see that each bottle bears 
the well-known name of 
J.C. Ayer & Co., 
Lowell, Mass. 
In every quurter of the globe Ayer’s Sar- 
saparilla is proved to be the best remedy for 
all diseases of the blood. Lowell druggists 
unite in testifying to the superior excellence 
of this medicine and to its great popularity 
in the city of its manutacture.
