Removal Of the Scandinavian Laboratory
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 Of preparation for the-recptien Of
: The business carried on 80 successfully for
some years past in our city. by Dow.
Roback. proprietor of the cele lebrated Sem
dnsviau Remedies,t ,the Blood Purifier and
Pills and the well.knowu Stomach Bitters
which bear his name. The constantly in.
cressipg popularity Of these medicines, has
req uired third extension of the limits
heretofore occupied in their manufacture.
The new premises, one hundred f. ct
fop, and extending one hundred and thi..
ty feet in the rePr, lave internally, been
complete y renodeled. the spacious apart.
ment' now being connected ny archways
cut through heretofore solid walls. and
everything else having been done, which
can facilitate the purpos s TO which they
are devoted. .u.. ...- .,-
In connection with this extensive busi.
ness in which DR. R. had previously been
engaged, he has for some time past, en-.
tered largely in the maDnfaciurA Of g-nu.
inc Catawba Brandy, All article already
enjoying favorable reputation, and being
widely used for medicinal purposes. A
large amount Of this has been introduced
most bene6cially, in the army hospitals,
heavy orders having been filed for the
use Of those institutions ia Washington
city. ..s- ea0#
Another extensive branch Of this in.
stiulion is the man q 'acture of the cels.
br"ted Swedish Brandy. 1t is stimulating
aromatic, and slightly medicinal, being
an excellent remedy for dyspepsia. 1, is
n pleasant beverage. Ladies can even
partake of ordinary quantities without
feeling undue intoxicating effects, so mild
is it in its composition 1t is great
favori,e in Sweden-in fact. so much so
that it may be styled the national heyer
age. 1t is prepared in the purest quality
by Dr.. Rohack. .,
A short visit to the new premises of
Dr. R., on Saturday last, proved most
Interesting, and we thiux is worthy a
passing notice. Entering from the neat.
ly arranged counting room. we 90 frs,
to the rear of The premises, and find our.
selves in large area. where the pres

copper sl;ls. notify US that we are in the
region appropriated for thu purposes of
dislilaion. From this we enter spa
ci"us apartment lined with immense re.
oevers, each containing hundreds of gal
Ions, devoted to the more especial purpo.

Entering another apartment, wa come

dy. Another still is devoted to the sto-
rage OF immense guam n,itiss Of glass ware,
roots, and other requisites needial to the
pr per preparation and putting up Of the
m edicines. ...
One story higher up and we come up
on the workshop, or the apartments ap.
proprialed to the making Of pills by ma-
chinery, and the boxing and labelling of

fit them Tor market. Here are employed
quite number Of men and boys, whose
duties are confined to this department
alone. Other departments are occupied

the articles produced in the establish.
m.nt.
Taking this establishment all in all.
with its Office. warerooms,, laboratories,
workshops, &c. it is without doubt the
most extensive in its department to be
found in the West.
We caunot but congratulate Dr.. r..
upon his increasing business as eyinceJ
BY this enlargement of his premises. He
will now be fully able, we think, to meet
all demands for his medicines, and give
them even more extended circulation
than they have heretofore enjoyed, which
already comprises an introduction into al
most every State in the Northwest, as
well as in the most important cities Of the
East, % '' ''S'
