NOTICE
TO EDITORS AND OTHERS.

Nep ro,k, Nov. 25tk, 1850.
MIR. X. B. MAssER, Sunbury Pa Dear Sir =
In some portions of the country where VIC had
advertised our Sarsaparila, in 1S4s, the Editors
of some of the papers have seen fit to take upon
themselves the responsibility Of continuing the
same after the agreement expired, and in some
cases have had the presumption to send US bill
Tor the amount. Now we have no objection to
have all the papers in the United States advertise
for us for years, if they are pleased to do so at
their own expense, but we cannot afford to pay
them unless they have our authority for the work.
We write to you for the purpose of informing the
Editors, through you, that they are at liberty to
advertise as long they please, but we must not
be held responsible without our written authority
