Now Establishment Of Dr. Roback from
tho Cincinnati Times. We are not in the
habit Of putting Patent Medicines, but.we
know from our.owu experience that those
manufactured by Dr.. Roback are what
they claim to be, and the public need
not fear Of being "Hubuged" by their
purchase and use:
Removal Of tho Scandinavian Laborato-
~ and Businsss House---Catawba and
Swsdish Brandies. 60, &C.,
For some weeks past, the large stone
front buildings on Third street, east of
Sycamore. lately occupied in part by the
Adams Express Company, have been in
course ofpreparation for the reception OF
the business carried on so successfully for
some years past in our city, by Dr.. G. W.
Roback, proprietor Of the celebrated Scan :
dinavian Remedies, the Blood Purifier
and Pills, and the well known Stomach
Bittefs, which bear his name. The con-
'tandy increasing popularity Of these
medicines, has required third extension
Of ths limits heretofore occupied in their
manufacture.
The new premises, one hundred feet
front. and extending one hundred and
thirty feet in the rear, have, internally,
been completely remodeled, the spacious
apartments now being connected by arch
ways cut through heretofore solid walls,
and everything else having been done,
which can facilitate the purpose to which
they are devoted
In connection with the extensive busi.
ness in which DR.. R. had previously been
engaged, he has, for some time past, en-
tered largely in to the manufacture Of
genuine Catawba Brandy, an article al-
ready enjeyinga most favorable reputa-
sion, and being widely used for medicinal
purposes. A large amount Of this has
been introduced, most benefcially, into
the, army hospitals, heavy orders having
been filed for the use Of those institutions
in Washington city.
Another extensive branch Of this insti-
tuition Is the manufacture Of the celebra-
ted Swedish Brandy. 1t is stimulating,
aromantic and slightly medical. being an
excellent remedy for dyspepsia. 1t is a
pleasant beverage. Ladies can even par
take Of ordinary quantities without feel
ing undue intoxicating effects, SO mild is
it in its composition. 1t is great favor
ise in Sweden-in fact SO much SO that il
may be styled the national beverage. 1t
isprepared in the parsst quality by Dr.
Roback.
A short visit to the new premises Of
DR.. R., on Saturday last, proved most
interesting. and we think is worthy pas
sing notice. Entering from the neatly
arranged counting room. we go first to
the rear Of the premises, and find our
selves in large area, where the presence
Of spacious furnaces and cspacious cop
per stills, notify us that we are in the re-
gion appropriated to the the purpose Of
distilation. From this we enter spa
cious apartment lined with immense re-
csivers, each containing hundreds Of gal
Ions. devoted to the.more especial purpo-
ses Of the laboratory as needful in the
preparation Of the Scandinavian remedies.
Entering another apartment, we come
upon long tiers Of barrels, slowed in every
dirsctiou, and filled with the pumice and
lees Of last years growth, to be used in
the manufacture Of the Catawba Brandy
Another still is devoted to the storage
Of immense quantities OF glassware
roots. and other requisites needful to th'
proper preparations andlpnttiag up of th'
medicines.
One story higher up and we come up
on the workshop, or the apartments ap
propriatsd to the making Of pills by ma
chinery, and the boxing and labelling o
shs same by hand the bottling Of the BIT
tors, and the other arrangements necessa
ry TO ft them for market. Here are EN-
ployed quito a number Of men and boys
whose duties are confined to this depart
Hssa alone. Other departments are oc
sapied for packing and making ready 70

tablishment. 49,. ss
