Fever and Ague.
from which mankind suffer over a large part of
the globe, is the consequence of a diseased action
in the system, Induced by the poisonous miasm of
vegetable decay. Thi3 exhalation Is evolved bv
the nothin of solar heat on wet soil, and rises with
the watery vapor from it. While the sun is bcio»
the horizon this vapor lingers near the earth’s SUN
face, and the virus is taken with it through th*
lungs into the blood. There it acts as an irritatin*
poison on the internal viscera and excreting omum
of the body. The liver becomes torpid and fhfls to
socrete not only this virus, but nlao the bile from
the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate
in the circulation, and produce violent constitu
tional disorder, pie spleen, the kidneys, and the
stomach sympathize with tho liver, and become
disordered'also. Finally, the instinct of our or
ganism, as if in an attempt to expel the noxiou*
infusion, concentrates the whole blood of the body
in the internal excretories to foros them to east it
out. The blood leaves the surface, and rushes to
the central organs with congestive violence. This
is the Chill. " But in this effort it fails. Then the
Fever follows, in which the blood leave* the cen
tral organs and rushes to the surface, as if ia
another effort to expel the irritating poison through
that other great excretory— the skin. In this
also it fails, and the system abandons the attempt
exhausted, and waits for .the recovery of strength
to repeat the hopeless effort another day. Thesn
are the fits or paroxysms of Fkvbu and Ague.
Such constitutional disorder will of course under
mine the health if it is not removed.
We have labored to fiud, and have found, aa
antidote,
Ayer’s Ague Cure,
which neutralizes this malarious poison in the
blood, and stimulates the liver to expel it from the
body. As it should, so it.does cure this afflictin?
disorder with perfect certainty. And it does more’
or rather does what is of more service to those sub
ject to this infection. If taken in season it expels
it from the system as it is absorbed, and thus keeps
those who use it free from its attacks; keeps the
system in health although exposed to the disease.
Consequently it not anly cures, but protects from,
the great variety of affections which are induced'
bv this malignant influence, such as Rcmitteae
Fever. Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague, \
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious
Fevers, Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Blindness,
Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpita
tions, Painful Affections of the Spleen, Hysterics,
Colic, Paralysis, and Painful Affections of the
Stomacu and Bowols, all of which, when arising
from this cause, will be found to assume more or
less the intermittent type. This “ Aocb Curb”
removes the cause of these derangements, and cure*
th?,disease.
This it nremnnlishes hv stimulatin'? the rTf-rc
torie* to espel the virus from the system; and
these organs by degrees become habited to do this
their office of their own accord. Hence arises what
we term acclimatatim;. T isos may accomplish th»
satne end, but often life <* o' g enough, or is p
s i- ti-’-eu in tiie attempt, whiie inis “ Ague Cuts"
deco • at once, and with safety. We hare great
f.- non to believe this is a surer us well as safer
remedy for the v, hole class of diseases which are
caused by the miasmatic iufp(®h‘?n, than any other
which has been discovered; and it has still another
important advantage to the public, which is, that
it is cheap as well as good.
