AYER'S PILLS. 



^ep>a^ A new and singularly successful 



^ J^^^ remedy for the cure of all Billious 



J ^[^uL^^ diseases — Costiveness, Indigestion 

 f mKSMA Jaundice, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Fe- 

 V [^ ^^^''"m^ vers, Gout, Humors, Nervousness,

 dLrm— W'tW'. '^<^he, Fains in the Breast, Side,

 BBmaMHMMMM plaints, &c., &.c. Indeed very few 

 are the diseases in which a Purgative Medicine is not 

 more or less required, and much sickness and suffering 

 might be prevented, if a harmless but effectual Cathar- 

 tic were more freely used. No person can feel well 

 while a costive habit of body prevails ; besides it soon 

 generates serious and often fatal diseases, which might 

 have been avoided by the timely and judicious use of a 

 good purgative. This is alike true of Colds, Feverish 

 symptoms, and Billious derangements. They all tend 

 to become or produce the deep seated and formidable 

 distempers which load the hearses all over the land. 

 Hence a reliable family physic is of the first importance 

 to the public health, and this Pill has been perfected 

 with consummate skill to meet that demand. 



Among the eminent gentlemen who have testified in 

 favor of these Pills, we may mention. 



Doct. A. A. HAYES, Analytical Chemist of Bos- 

 ton, and State Assayer of Massachusetts, whose high 

 Professional character is endorsed by the — 



Hon. EDWARD EVERITT, Senator of the U. S. 



ROBERT C. WINTHROP, Ex-Speaker of the 

 House of Representatives. 



ABBOTT LAWRENCE. Min. Plen to England. 



JOHN B. FITZPATRICK, Catholic Bishop of 

 Boston ; also 



Dr. J. R.CHILTON, PracticalChemistof New York 

 City, endorsed by 



Hon. W. L MARCY, Secretary of State. 



WM. B. ASTOR, the richest man in America. 



S. LELAND & Co., Proprietors of the Metropolitan 

 Hotel, and others. 



These Pills, the result of long investigation and 

 study, are offered to the public as the best and most 

 complete which the present state of medical science 

 can afford. They are compounded not of the drugs 

 themselves, but of the medicinal virtues only of Vegeta- 

 table remedies extracted by Chemical process in a state 

 of purity, and combined together in such a manner as 

 to insure the best results. This system of composition 

 for medicines has been found in Cherry Pectoral and 

 Pills both, to produce a more efficient remedy than had 

 hitherto been obtained by any process. The reason is 

 perfectly obvious! While by the old mode of compo- 

 sition, every medicine is burdened with more or less of 

 acrimonious and injurious qualities, by this each indi- 

 vidual virtue only that is desired for the curative effect 

 is present. All the inert and obnoxious qualities of 

 each substance employed are left behind, the curative 

 virtues only being retained. Hence it is self evident 

 the effects should prove as they have proved, more 

 purely remedial, and the Pills a more powerful anti- 

 dote to disease than any other medicine known to the 

 world. Prepared by Dr. JAMES C. AYER, Practi- 

 cal and Analytical Chemist, Lowell, Mass.
