Journal of Health, edited by D. NJ. Reese NJ. D.,
LID. 77G Broadway, October ], 1852:
Holland Gin as a Medicine.
Ina6ur lost number, we accompanied the publication
of aeircuar on this subject, from fellow Citizen
Udolpho WOLFE Esq, with brief commentary, ex
pressive of our own views. Since then we have been
employing this agent and thus far with favorable re-
suln. Bnt we are in the receipt Of several commu-
nications on the subject from medical men, which
serve to show that Mr.. Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam
Schnapps very extensively in use and in the hands
of physicians is proving ITSELF stimulating ciu.
reic to be eminently successful, after other medca
tion with this intent had tried in vain. In one
of the thus reported abdominal dropsy has been
entirely removed by the passage of caculous of
considerable size which is ascrbed to the of only
two bottles of this article.
We know not the object of Mr. Wolfe in designa-
ting his preparation by the singuarly uncuphoneous
name of Schnopps," nor of his denomnating it in
his advertisements the concentrated Tncure of Ju
nper instead of perpetuating It's ancient title of Ho
land Gin. 1t is true that he admits it to be nothing
else than the latter article in its pure state unadu
terated by noxous drugs; and hence be contrads-
tngushes it from the Gin Of commerce, nearly all of
which, as is well known, is manufactured here and
elsewhere from inferior Mhiskey and refuse drugs
The name he has given it, however, may serve the
purpose of designating his Article prepared exclu
svely for medical purposes and thus commend it to
physicians, Tor whose convenience it is sale. only
by reputable druggists and apothecares.
40 respects its medicinal and curative effects We
understand him TO claim only that it is pure and re-
laBie article of Holland Gin, and such worthy Of
theconfdene of Physicians to those diseases for which
they are strained by finding it mpractble TO obtain
the arti le in pure state. Nor should any prelu-
d AGAINST alcoholic ,redicine deprive The afflicted
memorial has held its place among the remedial agen.
ciesof the Matera Medica if it be found worthy of
confidence by continued experience.
At all events those who persist in the employment
and federation of other alcoholic medicines, tine
tnres bters DC, and especially those who prescribe
Gin under any circumstances must all unite in giving
the preference to pure article over the manifold
adulteratons so rife in the market. Mr. Wolfe liJe-'
rally supplies physicians with sample bottle for
analysis and trial. set forth in his circular and stakes
the reputation of the remedy uron the innocence,
safety and efficiency Of his Holland Gin, when used
under medical advice, and pledges his own character
in business that the article will not disappont any
who Use it.
