Caution to the Citizens of Burlington.
7 EARNING from some of the most rcspecta bic
IL firms in Cincinnati, Chicago, l. uisville and ST.
Louis, that my Schiedam Aromatic Schnarps is ex-
tensively countcrfeted by some Of the liquor mer'
chants of New York, I think it necessary to Gnu
ton the community against these v,nders Of poison
in disguise.
introduced the Schiedsm Aromatic Schnapps for
the purpose of supplying the medical faculty and the
whole community with pure medicinal spirit,
which might be prescribed with confidence in Ill
cases where stimuants wore required without pro
ducing the fearful consequences which invariably
result from using aduteratcd liquor In order
der assurance douby sure, had the article analysed
by chemists of worldwide celebrity, and submitted
it for experimental test to thousands of distinguished
medical practitioners. The responses from these
of the most unequiv cal and salts facto-
ry character 1t is before the public, surround
ed by these guarantees, and bearing these unim-
pcachable endorsements, and call upon the COM
1nunity to protect themselves and neither own
health and my reputation-by frowning down and
repudatng the practical SPECTATORS who are ped
ding their foul commodities under cover of my trade
mark. No article had ever been imported from IIol
land into this market, under the rame Of Schnapps,
previous to the appearance of Wolfe's Schiedam Ar
omatic Schnapps, in this city.
The first importation beng made into this city in
the year eighteen hundred and fort weight, which
be seen by the Custom House books, ! deposited my
label trade mark in the United States District
Court Of the Southern District of New York in the
certificate in my possession, of that date The great
demand which has thus been created for the genuine
article has set the whole hive of counter feers in
motion, and the duty owe to my customers and
friends and the public, compels me to put them on
their guard against imposition.
In order that the trade of Burlington may be sup
piled with the genuine article, have established
depot at the Store of Messrs. II. E. Hunt Co., on
jefferson, between Main and Water sis. Burlington
Iowa, who will supply, the trade at the loves, mar

Among the complaints for which the Schnapps
have been declared specific by the eminent physi-
clans who have correspondcd with the proprietor are
dropsy, dyspepsia debility consequent upon long con-
tinued sickness and old age, epilepsy, asthma gravel
colo, affections of the kidneys, and all chronic dis
cases of the genito-urinary apparatus. For these
and many other disorders, it is prescribed with
great success, by more than three thousand medical
practitioners i'll various parts of the Unsed States.
beg to call the attention of the reader to the fol-
lowing letters from physicians:
