TO THE CITIZENS OF WASHINGTON.

The proprietor begs leave to call the attention of
strangers and the citizens Of Washington, to very
superior article of Holland Gin. which he introduced
to the American public under the name of Wolfe's
Scheidam Aromatic Schnapps.
This Gin Is manufactured by the proprietor exolu-
sivey at his DistIery in Schiedam, Holland. Ii Is
made from the best Barley that can be procured in
Europe, at any cost, and favored and medicated,
not by the common harsh berry, but by the most
choice botanical variety of the Aromatic Italian Ju-
niper Berry, whose more various extract is distnl
ed and recthed with Its spirtuous solvent and thus
becomes a concentrated tincture of exquisite fla
vors and Aroma altogether transcending in Its Cor
dial and Medicinal properties any alcoholic beverage
heretofore known.
The proprietor has submitted It to nearly the
whole Medical Faculty of the United States, and
has received answers from about four thousand
Ply sicians and Chemists who endorse it their
signatures q most desirable addition to the Ma
terra Medlca.
Persons who pur chase should be careful to get the
genuine article, the whole country flooded with
counterfeits and limitations.
Put up in quart and pint bottles, in cases of one
dozen each, and for sale by all the respectable Drug
gists and Grocers in the United States.
