The Proprietors beg most respectfully to call the attention
of the trade, noblemen, clergy, Am, nod the public in general,
to their extensive stock of Choice Wines, of rare vintages.
Winnows and Co. are not disposed to comment upon, the
purity of their wines, which is daily most laudably acknow-
ledged by the public and eminent medical men of all coun-
tries, as the increasing patronage of the highest families in
the had is a sufficient guarantee.
They beg to call particular attention to their pure Tonic
Wines, as being so valuable to Invalids and persons of weak
stomachs.
A sample case, containing three full-sized wine bottles,
will be forwarded to any address on receipt of P. 0.0. for Os.
6d., or a dozen for 245.
It is a well-known fact that impure and adulterated wines
are the greatest foes to health, producing acidity in the
stomach, and debilitating the digestive organs, while pure
wines will accelerate the digestive powers, invigorating,
strengthening, and bracing the nervous system.
Their Tonic Wine is admitted to be most essential to in-
valids, both old and young, and should never be absent from
the homes of the weak and sickly. Its properties are duly
acknowledged and appreciated by the leading men of the
faculty, both at home and abroad.
To prevent imposition each bottle is sealed with the name
of the firm.
