al years is driving an immense business. He receives
no less than four hundred dozen of SaTsaparlla per
day. and even this quantity does not supply
the demand. No medicine gained great
popularity his preparation of the Sarsaparia His
edition OF AlmanacS for ISi9 cost $4,000, and he
has paid the New York SUS for advertising, in the
last four years, $4,000 and he acknowledges
that ii is the cheapest advertising he has had done
