Fr HE PUBLIC are earnestly warned against numerous
• istivAvtosts of DOCTOR SOLOMON'S CORDIAL
BAT.M OF GILEAD, pet forth by several unprincipled indi-
• viderals to ensnare end deceive. The great reputation so long
enjoyed by that excellent medicine for the cure f Nervous
Complaints, Declines, and Diseases induced by excessive In-
duieencies, and the great demand for it, have tempted the
worthless and unprincipled to this nefarious practice, by which
jowly Invalids have been irreparably injured. These lotto-
. tons extend tut only to the Name of this Medicine, but to the
Advertisements, Wrappers on the Bottles, and every distin-
guishingmark except that which would involve the Life of the
Depredator. !timely. the words "Samuel Solomon. Liver-
pool," engraved on the Government Stamp affixed to each
Mottles to imitate which Is felony. and punishable as Such.
To this distinguishing mark the public attention is particularly
dreq,ed, without which no "CORDIAL HALM " whatever
bas any claim to the merits of Dr. Solomon's invention.
The genuine medicine is prepared at Gilead House. near
Liverpool, and sold by Mr. Johnston. Bookseller, No. 68,
Corlibill ; Mr. Manger. (late Bacon and Co.) ISO, Oxford-street
