In small doses of one pill a day. they stimulate the digestive organs and promote vigorous health. Aykr's Pii.ls have been known for more than a ipiarter of a century, anil have obtained a world-wide reputation tor their virtues. They correct diseased action in the several assimilative organs of the bodv, and are so composed that obstruc tion's within their range can rarely with stand or evade them. Not only <!o they cure the every-day complaints of every body, but also formidable ami dangerous diseases that have bullied the best of human skill. While they produce power ful effects, they are, at the same time, the safest and best physic for children. By their aperient action they gripe much less than tlie common purgatives, and never give pain when the bowels are not intlamed. They reach the vital fountains of the blood, and strengthen the system by freeing it । from the elements of weakness. Adapted to all ages and conditions in all climates, containing neither calomel I nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may be taken with safety by anybody. Their sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh, and makes them pleasant to take; while being purely vegetable, no harm can arise from their use in any quantity. rRKPAREp BY Dr. J. C.
