Probably no one thing has caused
such a general revival of trade at M.

trad?? is simply enormous in this very
valuablo remedy, from the fact that it
always cures and uever disappoints.

Croup, and all throat and lung diseases
are quickly cured. You can test it before
buying by getting a trial bottle free

Which is it?
If bad, Impure blood, then your
brain aches. You are troubled
with drowsiness yet cannotsleep.
You are ss tired in the morning
as at night. You have no nerve
power. Your food does you but
little good.
Stimulants, tonics, headache
powders, cannot cure you ; but
will. It makes the liver, kidneys,
skin and bowels perform their
proper work. It removes all Im?
purities from the blood. And it
makes the blood rich In its life
giving properties.
To Hasten
Recovery.
You will be more rapidly cured
if you will take a laxative dose of
Ayor's pills each night. They
arouse tbe sluggish liver and thus
cure biliousness.
