First.
our experience and observation have satisfied
us that the Old Doctors Sarsaparila possesses
more medical power and virtue than s, P.
Iownsend's, and the testimony Of the public
would seem to be the same, and we always
make it matter of conscience and duty when
two articles bearing the same name and pur-
porting to cure the same disease are in market
TO state that which we consider the best
The Fact
that Townsend's Sarsaparilla has greatly
soured, fermented and exploded the bottles,
thereby giving great dissati. faction to our Gus
tomers, has influenced us in our preference of
the Old Doctors preparation. We do not feel
ourselves called upon to decide the true merits
Vi eHhel dItlcle as standard preparations, but
when asked by our customers for our opinions
which We believe under all circumstances to be
the best we should not hesitate in giving our
preference in favor Of Old DR.. jacob Town
sends. With these views we leave the public
to decide if we are not justified in giving the
Old Doctors preparation that preference which
It seems to deserve as medicinal compound,
as well as the choice of the people so univer-
sally manifested in its favor.
We have given the names of
Sixty Druggists,
