in their operation and effects until few months past
and having, since them been sadly disappointed IN eve
ry instance of using them began o conclude that you
had made your fortune, and abandoned their manutac
ture to mercenary and unfaithful hands Under this
impression, accidentally saw an advertisement OF
yours in New York newspaper designating spurious
limitations from your manufacture, by having your
WRITTEN SIGNATURE to each bill OF directions,
and that in no instance the limitations signed with
pen and ink, although perfect copy IN every other
respect Finding those had without this test, be.

came to the Hessrs Keers who assured me they had

them, found the same effects from them had always
experienced and am so much reoiced on finding my
selfn possession of medicine so highly prize, that
that cannot in justice, refrain from giving you this
information.
c. To avoid the imposition ofcounterfets and spu'
rious limitations as related above, the purchaser has
only to examine the bill of directions covering each
box, and if signed at foot. in my own handwriting, i'm
medistely under my printed name, they are genuine,
and prepared by me; but if the printed name is
affixed they are spurious, and to be avoided.
