PROOF! PRooF!.!
SarsaPsrllla is the original The following is from
some Of the most respectable papers in this State
FROM THE
New York Daily Tribune.
13- We published an adv efiiscmeit inadvertently
sone time since that did injustice to DR.. S. P Town
send who the original proprietor of the preparation
OF SarsapaTila known as DR. ToEnsend's Other
parties have within the past te months cngaged or
connected themselves with by the name of
Townsend who put up medicine and calls it by the
same name. This medicine advertised in The
Tribune as the original sc. This adv ertisement also
contained matter derngatory 10 the character Of Dr.
s r. Townsend and that Of his medicine We regret
il appeared and in justice to the DR.. make this cx-
plsnstioa.
New York Daily Sun.
DR. TowSsESD's extraordinary advertisement which
occupies an entire page of the SUr will escape
notice. DR. s p Townsend, who is the original pro
nj Ton, l-oC
hcc next door TO ouls where he has been for sever
al years, driving immense business He receives
no less than four hundred dozen Of Sarssparls per
DAY, and even this enormous quantity does supply
the demand. No medicine ever gained so great
popularity as his preparation of the sassparilla His
edition of Almanacs for ls49 cost $4,000 and he
has paid the New York srs for adv ertising in the
last four years. $4,000, and he acknowledges
that II rs the cheapest advertising he has had done.
This medicine Is exported to the CRnadas West In
dies South America and Europe, in considerable
quantities, and is coming into general in those
countries, as well as here.
SylndIers.
Druggists and Others that sell Sarsapsrlls for the
genuine and original DR.. Townsend's Sarssparilla,
that is not signed by S. Townsend commits fraud
guilty Of such act would commit any other fraud
and no Druggist OF common intelligence but knows
that ours is the only genuine.
Old Jacob Townsend.
Some people who not well informed and have
net read the papers and not seen advertiserents
have been led 10 suppose that because these men ad
vertlse their stuff as 81 Old Jacob Townsends" that il
must OF course be the original II is less than
year since they commenced to make their medicine
Ours has been in the market over ten years.
This Old jacob Townsend
They are endearorng TO palm of on the public es
an old Physician, sc. He is not regular educated
Physician and never attempted to manufacture med
icins until these men hired him for the of his
name. They say they do not wish the people 70 be-
lieve that their Sarsapara is ours or the same-but
the better to deceive the public they the same time
assert that theirs is the Old DR. Townsends and TIE
r,nrsn1 or1ox 40
that .he stuff they manufacture is the Dr. Townsends
Sarsaparilla, that has performed many wonderful
cures for the past ten years and which has gained
reputation which no other medicine ever enjoyed
which Is base, villanous, unprincpled falsehood.
We have commenced suits against these men for
damages We wish il to be understood that the old man
IS no relation TO DR.. Townsend whatever In their ad
ser'isements and circulars, they publish number of
gross isisehoods respecting Dr. Townsend, which We
will not notice.
FaIse Reports.
Our opponents have published in the papers that
Or S. Townsend was dead. This they send to their
agents about the country, who report that we have
given up business &c. sc. The public should be on
their guard, and not be deceived by these unprinc
pied men.
