Children Cry for Pitcher’s Castoria FOR MALARIA, And malarial diseases so prevalent in the South and West, Ayer’s Pills have proved peculiarly beneficial. “I have found in Ayer’s Pills, an invaluable remedy for disorders peculiar to miasmatic localities. Taken in small and frequent doses, Pills act well on the liver and aid it in throwing off malarial poisons.”—C. F. Alston, Quitman, Texas. Prepared by Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Mass. YELLOW FEVER, The terror of the South, has yielded to Ayer’s Pills. James M. Crofut, of Beaufort, S.C., writes: “During the past three months our city has been scourged with yellow fever. Many friends and neighbors have been taken from us. In several cases Ayer’s A y P broke the attack of the fever, and saved the patient’s life.
