Old Doctor Jacob Townsend,
The Original Discocerer Of the Genuine
TOWNSEND'S SASAPARILLa.
THERE are class Of spectators who being both
i ignorant and unprincpled, seize upon nything
by which they can delude the public and I'LL their
own pockets. The great Sarsaparilla root as a.
cure for all forms of diseases has induced many of
these men to attempt to palm off some compound
which heg label as an extract ST the pure Honduras
sarsaparilla. The country has been flooded with
these compounds, and many have been induced to
purchase them, but the only result has been cruel
disappointment. A thin, washy mess of stuff, cook
ed up without any regard to the effect upon the pa
tient, can but bring down upon the manufacturers
the condemnation of a deceived public.
ONE OF THESE HU.NBUGS,
Which has had more extensive sale than most, has
ua exploded. We refer to that notorious sour fer
menting compound OF 8. p. Townsend's. He has
been compelled to quit the buisneSs and his article is
thrown into the market at any price TO get rid
of il.
If any desires proofof this we only ask them to
step into any wholesais drug store and enquire for
5. p. Townsend's Sarsaparila The day for creating
q reputation for medicine by newspaper pulling
and forged certificates passed, and only those
of real north which can stand the test of time.
Whilst this is the fate of most OF the Sarsaparllla
Extracts,

Has gradually grown into favor with the public, and
the sales have never been large al the present
time To meet with the demand from the West
the proprIeoas have been compelled to open Branch
facilitate their business transactions.

Card to the Public.
We, the unders igned. physicians and druggists of
N. York, Brooklyn and Williamsburg, having seen
an advertisement address sed TO us and others who
sell Sarsapara by s. p. Townsend, which is calcu.
lated to bring us and our business into reproach,
feel called upon to state our personal views of the
real merits of the two Townsends SarsaparilIa. OF
the claims preferred nv the nart;es IN ,ho original
Sarsaparlla we have nothing to do, and leave them
to settle that matter between themselves. But
