.k.LLSOPP'S PALE ALE AND DR.
GLOVER.
Cite circulation given to a statement tending to invalidate the
1!1 ression of Dr. Glover's opinion in favour of Pale Ale, compels
72 ears. ALLSOPP and SONS to connect this remarkable dis-
ittion of a calumny with other insidious attacks upon their
An n which they have reason to know proceed from an unworthy
unneighbourly jealously.
/ dews. ALLSOPP and SONS, in reply, deem it their best
cot use to adopt the same line of conduct as in the case of the
ta3 iilar perversion and mutilation of Baron Liebig's meaning, so
Lignantly repudiated by that eminent man himself. They pub-
-4 ?, therefore, without abridgement, the letter they received from
• Glover, (having his permission to do so) ; a letter the more
Liable because it was not intended for publication, and is an impre-
sel le
Attated evidence of that learned Chemist's just appreciation of
Ale.

PRAMPTON'S PILL of HEALTH.
The following testimonial is another proof of the great efficacy
of this medicine :

•• I presume you will hardly expect me to write to ' The
taancet.' However, I shall be at home on Thursday evening, and
'_st assuredly 1 have no desire to say anything which could weakest
eonfiCence of the public in your beer. But that I am not now
the habit of drinking Bitter Beer, I should be glad to show my
less
by drinking plenty of it."
ALLSOPP and SONS beg to refer to the letter of Mr.
RY ALLSOPP on this subject, in the Monthly Journal of
Medical Science " for October, iu the concluding paragraph of which
It 'a said—.
" I inserted Dr. Glover's good-natured remark on my Bitter Beer
stl an incidental testimonial'—no more. I never called it a cer-
_iacate: nor did I apply to him, or any other medical gentleman, for
e• lam not responsible that such a construction has been placed
Tan the offhand expressions of good opinion which have been sent
`lllelom all quarters." 4.;
ALLSOPP add SONS, in conclusion, wish to draw the
i.ention of the public and the trade to the fact, that, by this dis-
.)enuOus system ef attack and the perversions of facts gratui-
! Usly adopted, tbey are unwillingly drawn into that publicity the
courting „ of which is made an accusation against them.
