Here is proof conclusive that DR. S. p Townsenis
ssrsaparilia is the original. 5he following from
a 80 FROM,THE
New York Daily Tribune.
o. We published an adv ertisenent inadvertently
some time since that did irjastce Dr. S. P Town
send who is the original proprietor Of the preparation
of SarsaparilIa known as Dr. Tow nsenis Other
parties have within the past few months engaged
connected themselves with by the name Of
Townsend who put up medicine and calls il by the
same name. This medicine advertised in The
Tribune the original SC This advertisement also
contained matter derogatory to the character Of Dr.
s. P. Townsend and that of his medicine. We regret
it appeared and in justice to the Dr. make this eH
planatiOn. ga

Dr.. TowssENp's extraordinary advertisement, which
occupies entire page of the sus, will not escsPs
notice. Dr.. g. P. Townsend, who is the original pro
prietor of Dr.. Townsends SaTsapsrils and whose Of
fce Is next deor to ours where he has been for
al years, driving immense business He receives
less than four hundred dozen of Sarsapsrilh per
day, and even this enormous susntity does not supply
the demand. No medicine ever gained great
popularity his preparation Of the Sarsaparlla His
edition Of Almanacs for lss9 cost $4,000, and be
has paid the New York SUs for advertising, in the
last four years over Slo,o00. and he scknowledgs'
that it is the cheapest advertising he has had done
This medicine is exported to the Canadas West ID

quantities and is coming into general use in 'hO''
