When the pure medicinal restorative now 80

,esi some twenty years ago its proprietor
wen aware that 1t could not wholly cscape the
penalty attached to new and useful preparations
ne, therefore, endeavorcd to invest it with the
strongest possible safeguard against countcrfot-
crs and to render all attempts pirate it difficult
and dangerous. 1t was submitted to distinguish
e ed chemists for analysis, aud pronounced by them
tho purest spirit ever manufactured. It's purity

the ordinary liquors of commerce; all of which

iormed one OF the principal ingredients of the
SeehinIapps sc together with an unalloyed character
OF the alcoholic element, give it, III the estimation

other dlHusive stmuant dIuretic tonic and
restorative
These satisfactory credentials from professional
men OF tho highest rank were published in
condensed form, and enclosed with each bottle

I'd .he proprietors autograph signature was attached
TO each label and cover. his name and that of tho
preparation were embossed on the bottles. and tho
corks were sealed with his private seal No article
had ever been sold in this country under the name
OF Schnapps prior to the introduction of Wolfe's
SGmedam 5Shni Aromatic Schnapps, in 1851; and the
