7 CALL THE ATTENTION OF THE MERCHANTS
OF California and Oregon to Superior article Of
HI OLLAND GIN,
Manufactured by myself exclusively, at schiedsm
Holland and to distinguish from every other EcO-
holic Stimuant In the world, give It the name Of
SOHIEDAN AROMATIC SCHNAPPS.
Ia is the pure Tincture of juniper distilled from the
best barley that can be selected at any cost ia
vored and medcated, not by the common harsh berry,
but by the choice botanical variety OF the Aromatic
Italian Juniper Berry, whose more vnOus extract is
distilled and recthed with its spritOus solvent and
thus 1t becomes concentrated tincture Of exquisite
tlayor and aroma, altogether transcendant in its
dial and medicinal properties to any Holland Gin In
the world.
Since the Introduction Of the celebrated AROMAT-
lC SCHlEDAM SCHNAPPS the proprietor has sub
mitted to the whole Medical Faculty Of the United
States. Over three thousand endorse it, their
own signatures, to be the purest Alcoholic Stimuant
now in use They also speak of the great success
ey nave met with in their practice in Gravel, Gout
Chronic Rheumatism, Distractions of the Kidneys,
bladder and Urinary Organs. Persons travelling in
the Southern and Western States should always have
supply on hand as preventative against que and
Fever and change of water The Physicians in New
