A Most Excellent Alterative, Tonic And Blood=Purifying Remedy.
Wright’s Sarsaparilla is designed to act upon the
blood, and through that upon all the organs and tissues
of the blood. It has a specific action, also, upon the se

the system all humors, impure particle and effects mat
ter through the lungs, the liver, the kidneys and the
skin. It effectually aids weak, impaired and debilitated
organs, invigorates the nervous system, tones and
strengthens the digestive organs and imparts new life
and energy to all the functions of the body.
Wright’s Sarsaparilla cannot be excelled for eradicating disease
and in toning up worn and depleted tissue.
