BY reading the following affidavit, the public
will learn the origin or rather where the recipe for
making the stuff they call Old DR. Jacob Town
sends Sarsaparilla came from-and will be able
to judge which is the genuine and original, and
of the honesty of the men who are employed in
selling it as the original DR. Townsend's Sarsapa-
rllla. DR. S. P. Townsend was the original pro-
prietor and inventor of DR. Townsend's Sarsspa-
rilla, and his medicine has gained a reputation
that no other remedy ever gained. He manufac-
tured million of bottles the last year, and
is manufacturing at present 5000 bottles per day
We use more Sarsaparilla and Yellow Dock in oul

parlIa manufacturers in the world. Principal Of

That said Townsend stated he was an old man
