PROoF!I PRoOF!!!
Here is proof conclusive that DR. s. P. Townsends
Sarsapanlla is the original. The following IS from
OF the most respectable papers IN ms STATE
FROM THE
View York Daily Tribune.
fH7- We published advertisement inadvertently
some time since that did injustice to Dr. 5 p Town
send who is the original proprietor OF the preparation
cf Sarsaparlla known as DIR. Townsends. Other
Uarties have within the past few months engaged or
connected themselves with man 6y ine n name @ % oa
same Tins medicine was advertised IN The
Tibane the original &c. This advertisement also
contained matter derogaory 10 the character OF DR.
5 p Townsend end that of his medicine. We regret
it appeared and in justice to the Dr. make this eX-
PLANTATION.
New York Daily sun.
DR.. TowNsEND's extraordinary advertisement which
occupies an entire page OF the SUN will not escape
notice. DR.. S. P. Townsend who is the original pro
prictor of Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla and whose Of
flee door 10 ours where be has been for sever
al years, driving immense business lie receives
no less than four hundred dozen OF Sarsaparia per
day and ev en- this quantity does not supply
the demand. No medicine ever gained so great
popularity his preparation of the Sarsaparllla His
edition OF Almanacs for lS49 cost $4,000, and he
has paid the New York SUN for adsertlslng, IN the
last four wears $4,000, and he acknowledges
that il the cheapest advertising he has had done
This medicine is exported to the Canadas, West In
dies South America and Europe, in considerable
quantities and is coming into general use IN those
countries, as well ds here
SyIndlers.
Druggists and others that sell Sarsaparilla for the
genuine and original Dr. Townsend's sarsaparilla,
that is not signed by S. P. Townsend, commits fraud
and swindles the customers Men that would be
guilty of such act would commit any other irauo
and no Druggist Of common intelligence but knows
that ours is the only genuine
Old Jacob Townsend.
Some people who are not well informed, and have
not read the papers, and not seen our advertisements
hare been led to suppose that because these men ad
yertise their stuff as Old Jacob Townsends" that IT
must of be the original 4 is less than one
wear 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 off on the public as
old Physician, &c lie is not regular educated
Physician and never attempted to manufacture med
icine until these men hired him for the use OF his
name. They say they do not wish the people TO be-
leve that their Sarsaparilla is ours or the samebut
the better 10 deceive the public they at the same time
assert that theirs is the Old DR. Townsends and the
original and endeavor to make the people oeleye
that the stuff they manufacture is the Dr. Iownseno
Sarxaparilla that has performed so many wonderlui
cures for the past ten years, and which has ganed
reputation which no other medicine ever enjoyed,
which is base, yillainous, unprlncIpled faisehood'
We have commenced suits against these men Tor
damages We wish it to be understood that the old man
is no relation to Dr. Townsend whatever In their ad
yertisements and circulars, they publish number OF
gross ialsehoods respecting DR.. Townsend, which 1e
False Reports.
Our opponents have published in the papers, that
Dr. S p Townsend was dead. This they send to their

their guard, and not be deceived by these unprinci
pied men.
