There probably never has been so popular a remedy
or patent medicine DR.. TownSen ds's Sarsaparilla
which was originally, and continues to be manufac.
tured in this CITY, at first by the Doctor himself and
afterwards for several and to the prese Mt time
by Clapp Townsend, the present proprietors Since
the partnership was formed the Doctor has resided in
New York where he keeps store, and attends to the
business that accumuates at that point The manu-.
factory is in this city, and is conducted by the Junior
Partner Mr. CaPp-here all the medicine is manufac-
tured.
Few Of our citizens have any idea of the amount Of
this medicine that is manufactured and sold Besides
the sales in this country it is shipped to the Canadas
West India Islands, South America and even to Eu-
rope in considerable quantities At the mandatory
they employ steam engine, besides large number
Of men, women and girls, in the preparation Of thu
medicine, making boxes, printing sc, and turn out,
ready for shipment over 400 dozen per dav, nearly
5000 bottles. This is enormous quantity.
The great sale the medicine has acquired, has in
duced number of men get up limitations and there
is at the present time other medicines for sale that
are called DR.. Townsends Sarsaparilla." One in par
ticular started short time ago in New York called
Old Doctor Jacob Townsends Sarsaparilla- and ap-
parently with view, by dnt of adv ersng, and the
usual remedies resored to in such efforts. sppropr
ate the name of DR.. S P Townsend's great remedy
and thus gain all the advantages resulting from the
popularity of the name which he has acquired it,
by years Of patient and expensive labors Dr. S. p
Townsend, formerly of this city, is well known
here is the inventor and original proprietor Of tho
medicine known as DR. Townsend's sarsaparills,'
and we think those persons who attempting to sell
Their article as the genuine, should be exposed.
FROM THE
New York Daily Tribune.
GO We published an advertisement inadvertently
some time since that did injustice to DR.. s. p Town
send who is the original proprietor of the preparation
of sarsaparilla known as DR. Townsend's. Other
parties have within the past few months engaged or
connected themselves with a by the of
Tow who put up mediciHe and calls il Sy the
same name. This medicine advertised In The
Tribune as the origna &c This advertisement alss
contained matter derogatory to the character of DR.
S ?. Townsend and that Of his medicine. We regret
it appeared and in justice to the DR.. make this

SwIndIers.
Druggists and others that sell sarsaparlla for the
genuine and original DR.. Townsend's Sarsaparilla,
that is not signed by 5. p Townsend, commits fraud
and swindles the customers. Men that would be
guilty of such act would commit any other fraud
and no Druggist of common intelligence but knows
that is the only genuine.
Old Jacob Townsend.
Some people who not well informed and have
not read the papers, and not ad ertsements
have been led to suppose that because these men adj
vertise their stuff Old Jacob Townse nds that il
must, of course, be the original II is less than one
year since they commenced to make their medicine.
Ours has been in the market over ten years.
This Old Jacob Townsend
They are endeavoring to palm of the public as
an old Ply stefan, &C. He is not a regular educated
PHYSICIAN and never attempted to manufacture a med
lche until these men hired him for the use of his
name They say they do not wish the people 10 be-
iehs that their Sarsaparilla is ours or the same-hut
me oetter to deceive the public they at the time
assert that theirs is the Old Dr. Townsends and the
original and endeavor to make the people believe
that The stuff they manufacture is the Dr. Townsends
Sarsaparilia, that has performed so MANY wonderful
cures for the past ten years. and which has gained
reputation which no other medicine ever enioyed-
which is base, villainous, unprincipled falsehood
damages We wish to be understood that the old man
is no relation to Dr. Townsend whatever In their adj
vertisements and circulars, they publish number Of
gross falsehoods respecting Dr. Townsend, which We
i'll not notice.
False Reports.
Our opponents have published in the papers, THAI
Dr. S P Townsend was dead. This they send to their
agents about the country, who report that we have
given up business, sc. &c. The public should be on
their guard, and not be deceived by these unprnci-
pied men.
