DEBILITATED BY HOT WEATHER. TIRED OUT AND ILL. locks (so-called) do no good, but Ayer's Sarsaparilla builds up and restore* to health Mr. J. QoNgh of Cape Town, Cape Colony, who sends his portrait and writes as follows: "During the past simmer the extremely hot ™*?^™ "g^ ill I lost all appetite, could not sleep, was incapacitated for work, and buffered from severe pains in the head. I tried several tonics, but they did toe no JS^hXer A friend, who had been similarly affected, toldme to take Ayer's Sarsaparilla, as he had done. I followed his advice, and fcoon began to regain my strength, and after using three or four bottles my health was completely restored." Very many people suffer from the effects of a prolonged season of warm weather in the same way as did Mr Gough. Their blood becomes thin, food distasteful, and life is positively burdensome. .,,„, Ayer's Sarsaparilla makes new pure blood; restores strength and vitality, and has been the SSStorf thousands who, prior to its use, were, as they expressed it, **hnth tired out and worn out."
