D7- SWAIN's CHARACTERIZATION The
greatceebrity which this remedy has acquired during
period OF twenty years. its increasing demand, and its
unparalleled success, has induced number of persons

As long these limitations were confined TO mixtures
bearing other names, did not consider necessary
a1Yer ito theR but having evidence in our possession
gross deceptiOns practiscd by unprinciped men, in
hiding spurious syrup for the "genuine Swans PAN
eea, we cannot strongly caution the public to avoid
purchasing our medicines from any but the most respect
able sources.
II is difficult to detect in many instances the actual
perpetrators of these imposons, tho spurious mxs
lures are the more generally sent into the Interior and
foreign countries.
Some time back we detected fraudulent imation
NewYork, closely resembling our own, but the bottles
were labelled William Swain, instead of WILLIAM
SWAIN.
More recently we have found bottles cast n a mould
precisely like our own, but "Swam's Panaceav New
css :" Philadelphia.
We have received repeated advices from he West
dia islands that our empty bottles purchased up at
high rat rs, for the purpose of rellng them with sPv
tture: and Of the thousands of bottles of Swaim's
Panacea annually sold in our principal cities, we can
collect ut very few of the empty bottles, as they are
acos - foi IN various ways TO defraud the proprietor
a6s : sceive the pubic.
we hive known instances of three bottles being made
out OF one, by mixing portion of Sarsaparia Syrup
with the genuine Swaims Panacea, thereby retaining
ONE of its virtues
In Philadelphia, lately a large order was received by
amercantile house for Swaim's Panacea botes mould
in exact imitation Of was made, and the order
snpied-and recent advices from Brazils inform that

From all these circumstances il Will be seen hat
