that nine-tenths of my troubles were
caused by constipation, I began the use
of Ayer's Pills, with the most satisfac

attack that did not readily yield to this
remedy. My wife, who had been an
Invalid for years, also began to use
Ayer's Pills, and her health was quickly
restored. "With my children I had no

preceded by constipation, and I soon
had the pleasure of knowing that with
children as with parents, Ayer's Pills,
if taken in season, avert all danger of
sickness." H. Wettstein, Byron, III.
