Schnapps.
This medicinal beverage is manufactured by the
proprietor, at Schiodam, Holland, expressly for
medicinal use, bya process peculiar to his own
Factory 1t is the pure Tncture of the Italian
Juniper Berry, whose more vinous extract is dis
titled and rcctifed with its spurious solvent which
thus becomes concentrated tincture of exquisite
flavor and aroma, altogether, transcendent in its
cordial and medicinal properties to any alcoholic
stimulant now made in the world. 1t is now pre-
scribed by moro than 5000 physicians in the Uni
