Fever and Ague,
from which mankind suffer over a large pan
the globe, is the consequence of a diseasedactio*
in the system, induced by the poisonous miasm
vegetable decay. This exhalation is evolved b»
the action of solar heat on wet soil, and rises with
the watery vapor from it. While the sun is below
the horizon this vapor lingers near the earth’s sur
face, and the virus is taken with it through th
lungs into the blood. There it acts as an irntatin»
poison on the internal viscera and excreting ore»n
of the body. The liver becomes torpid and fan* to
secrete not only this virus, but also the bile from
the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate
in the circulation, and produce violent constitu
tional disorder. The spleen, the kidneys, and the
stomach sympathize with the liver, and become
disordered also. Finally, the instinct of our or.
ganism, as if in an attempt to expel the noxious
infusion, concentrates the whole blood of the bod*
in the internal excretories to force them to cast it •
out. The blood leaves the surface, and rushes to
♦he central organs with congestive violence. This
is the C hill. But in this effort it fails. Then the
Fever follows, in which the blood leaves the cen
tral organs and rushes to the surface, as if in
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. These
are tne fits or paroxysms of Fdtbr and Aopj.
Such constitutional disorder will of course under
mine the health if it is not removed.
We have labored to find, and have found, an
antidote,
Ayer’s Ague Cure, \
which neutralizes this malarious poison is the
blood, and stimulates the liver to expel it fro® th#
body. As it should, so it does ettre this afflicting
disorder with perfect certainty. And it does mote
or rather does what is of more service to those tub!
iect to this infection. If taken in season it expels
it from the system as it is absorbed, and thus keep*
those who use it free from its attacks; keeps the
system in health although exposed to the disease.
Consequently it not only cures, but protects ftom,
the great variety of affections which are induced
by this malignant influence, such as Remittent
Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague,
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, ffiKiuf
Fevers, Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Blindness,
Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpita
tions, Painful Affections of the Spleen, H^Meries,
Colic, Paralysis, and Painftil Affections of flw'
Sfnmnoh onn Tlnwold. nil nf whiph
from this cause, will be found to assume more or
less the intermittent type. This “ Aoch Cum"'
removes the cause of these derangements, and cutes
the disease.
This it accomplishes by stimulating the' excre*
tones to expel the virus from the system; and >
these organs by degrees become habited to dq this
their office of their own accord. Hence arises what
we term (gxlimatation. Time may accomplish die
same end, but often life is not long enough, oik
sacrificed in the attempt, while this “ Ague Cum”
does it at once, and with safety. We have great
reason to believe this is a surer as well as safer
remedy for the whole class of diseases which are
caused by the miasmatic infection, 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.
