PROcE!! PROOF!!!
Here Is proof conclusive that DR. 5. p Townsend's
Sar,1parllla is the original. The following is from
some OF the most respectable papers IN this State.
FROM THE
New York Daily Tribune.
177- We published an advertisement ina5vertentlv
some time since that did injustice to Dr. S P Town
fead WHO Is the original proprietor of the preparation
at Sarsaparilla known Dr. Townsends Other
parties have within the past few months engaged or
connected themselves with a man by the name of
townsend who put up medicine and calls il by the
8fLune as the original sc. This advertisement also
contained matter derugatory the character of DIR
? Townsend and%hat of his medicine We regret
II appeared and in justice to the Dr.. make this
fallau0n.
FROM THE
New York Daily Sun.
De TOWNSHIPS extraordinary advertisement which
occupies an entire page of the SER viii not escape
notice Dr. S. 7. Townsend who is the original pro-
FTetor OF Dr.. Townscnd's SaTssparlla and whose of
dre next door ours where be has been for sever
al years, driving immense business He receives
10 less than four hundred dozen Of Sarsapara per
na, and even tins enormous quantity does not supply
the demand. No medicine ever gained so great q
popularity as has preparation of the Sarssparila His
edition OF AlnanacS for IS49 cost S22OOO and he
mas paid the New York srN for advertising in the
last louT years, over $4,000 and he acknowledges
that II Is the cheapest adreTtising he has had done
1}Is medicine is exported to the Canadas West In
dies South America and Europe, in considerable
quantities, sud is coming into general use in those
Countries as well as here.
SvvIntiiers.
Druggists and others that sell Sarsanarila for The
genuine and original DR.. Townsend's Sarsaparilla
that is not signed by S P. Townsend commits fraud
ana t"lnales the customers Men that would be
guihy OF tuch an act would commit any other fraud
land no Druggist Of common intelligence but knows
.hat ours is the only genuine.
Old jacob Townsend.
Some PEOPLE who, not wcA informed and have
not read the papers and not our adve,isep1ents
have been led to suppose that because these men ad
seTtise their stuff Old Jacob Townsendsp that it
must OF course be the original II is less than
year since they commenced to make their medicine
Guns las been in the market over Ten years.
This Old Jacob Townsend.
They are endesvoring to palm off the public as
an old Fhysiclan, &c. He is not regular educated
Thy slclan and never attempted 10 manufacture med
Icine, until these hired him for the use of his
name They say they do not wish the people 10 be-
ieFe that their ssrsapsrilla is ours The samebut
the better TO deceive the public they at the same time
assert that theirs is the Old DR. TownSends and TIE
original and endearOr to make the peope believe
that :he stuff they manufacture is the DR. Townsend's
sarsaPafiiis' that has performed many wonderful
cures Tor the past ten years, and which has gained
reputation which no other medicine ever enoyed-
Rhich Is base, yIllainous unprncipled falsehood.
We nave commenced suits against these men for
damages ewish il to be understood that the old man
IS no relation to Dr. Townsend whatever In their ad
'ertsements end circulars they publish number of
gI,ss ialsehoods respecting DIR. Townsend, which we
viii not notice.
False Reports.
Our opponents have published in the papers that
DR.. s. ?. Townsend was dead This they send 10 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 unprnei
pied men,
