DEAR SIR: The want Of pure Wines and Liquors
for medicinal purposes has been long felt by the pro-
fession and thousands of lives have been sacrificed
by the use Of adullcratcd articles. Deirium trc-
mems. and other diseases ofthe brain and nerves, so
rife in this country arc very rare in Europe owing,
in great degree, to the difference in the purity of
the spirits sold.
We have tested the several articles imported and
sold by YOU including your Gin, which you sell un
der The name of Aromatic Schieam Sclnapps,
which we consider justly entitled TO the high repu-
tation it has acquired in this country; and from
your long experience as foreign importer your
Bottled Wines and Liquors should meet with the
same demand.
We would recommend to you to appoint some of
the respectable npothccnries in different parts oil the
city as agents for The sale of your Brandies and
Wines, where tho profession can obtain the same
when needed for medicinal purposes.
