other dihusiyc stlmulant y dIuretic, tonic and
restorative.
These satisfactory credentials from professional
men OF tho highest rank were published in a
condensed form, and enclosed with each bottle
OF the SchnapPs, as one Of the guarantees Of it's
genuineness ,s Other precautions against fraud
were also adopted; patent was obtained for the
article, the label was copyrighted, fac simle of
the proprietor's autograph signature was attached
TO each label and cover. his name and that of the
preparation were embossed on the bottles and the
corks were scaled with his private seal No article
had ever been sold this country under the name
OF Schnapps prior to tho introduction of wolfe's
Schledam Aromatic Schnapps, in 1861 and the
iqpcl was deposited, as his trade mark, in the
Umted states District Court for the Southern Dis
trict OF New York during that year.
1t might be supposed, by persons unacouanted
Win the daring character of the pirates who prey
upon the reputation of honorable merchants, by
vending deleterious trash under their name that
the projections SO carefully thrown around these
Schnapps would have precluded tho introductions
and sale OF counterfeits. They seem, however,
only to have stimulated the rapacity of imposters
Inc trade mark OF the proprietor has been stolen:
the endorsement which his Schiedam Aromatic
sScnnapps alone received from the medical pro-
Iesslon has been claimed by mendacious humbups:
MS labels an bottles have been initiated his ad-
vcrtsements paraphrased, his circulars copied.
ana, worse than all, dishonorabe retailers after
alsposlng Oh the genuine contents of his bottles
have filled them up with common gin, tho most
deleterious of all liquors, and thus made his name
and brand q cover for poison.
The public, the medical profession and tho sick
for whom the Schedam Aromatic Schnapps ~
prescribed as remedy, are equally interested with
these nefarious practices. The genuine article,
manufactured Mt the establishment of the under,
signed, in Schiedam, Holland, is distilled from
barley OF the finest quality and favored with an
essential extract OF the berry of the Italian
juniper, of unequalled purity. BY a process un-
known III the preparation of any other liquor it is
freed from every acrimonious and corrosive ele-
ment. ~
Complaints have been received from the LEADING
physicians and families in the Southern States
OF the sale OF cheap limitations Of the Schiedam
Aromatic Schnapps in those markets; and travel
ers who are in the habit of using it an antidote
to the baneful Influence of unwholesome river
water, testify that cheap GIN put I'D in Schiedam

10 institute inquiries on the subject, and to for

may ascertain to be engaged in the atrocous
system OF deception. In conclusion, the under
signed would say that lie has produced, from under
the hands of the most distinguished men of
science IN America, proofs unanswcrable of tho
purity and medicinal excellence of the Schcdam
Aromatic Schnapps; that he has expended many
Thousand dollars III surrounding it with guarantees
and safeguards which he designed should protect
the public and himself against fraudulent imta-
tions that he has shown it to be the only liquor in
the world that can be uniformly depended upon
as unadulturatcd; that he has challenged investi.

all It's forms; and from every ordeal tho prepa-

the medical profession and tho sick, to denounco
and expose the Charlatans who counterfeit these
evidences OF identity, and he calls upon the press
ana the public to aid him in his efforts to remedy
so great an evil.
The following letters and certificates, from the
leading physicians and chemists of this city, will
prove to the reader that all goods sold by the
Undersigned are all they are represented to be.
