10 the People of the Southern Statcss
! WIEN THE PURE MEDICINAL RESTORATIVE,
4, itow 30 widely known as woLFE's sCHIEDAM
! HCaNAP2S, was Introduced into the world under
tho endorsement Of four thousand leading members
OF the medical profession some twenty years ago. its
proprietor was we'll aware that 1t could not wholly
escape the penalty attached to all new aud usefu,
preparations. Hc, therefore, endeavored to invest /,
with strongest possible safeguard against counter
letters, and to render all attempts to pirate it diff
cult and dangerous. It submitted to dtstin.
gWshed chemists for analysis, and pronounced by
them the purest spirit manufactured. Its puri-
~ and properties having been thus ascertained
rles of the article forwarded to ten thousand
hysicans, including all the leading practitioners in
the United States, for purposes of experiment. A
clcuar, requesting trial Of the preparation and
port Of the result, accompanied each specimen.
our thousand of the most eminent medical mon in
! tAe Union promptly responded. Their opinions of
tse article were unanimously favorable. Such
separation, they said, had long been wanted by
ne profession, as reliance could be placed the
-rdinary liquors Of commerce. all of which were
naore or less aduteyatcd and therefore unfit for
'aedtcal purposes. The peculiar excellence and
atrength OF the OF of juniper. which formed one Of
the principal ingredients of the schnapps together
with an unalloyed character of the alcoholic ele-
ment give 1t. in the estimation OF the faculty, a
marked superiority every other diusive stimu-
liant as diureic, tsnic and restorative.
These satisfactory credentials from professional

densed form and enclosed with each bottle Of the

ness. Other precautions against fraud were also
adopted; patent obtained for the article the
label was copyrighted, fac snaite Of the prepIieors
autograph signature was attached to each label and
cover, his name and that Of the preparation
osed the bottles and the corke were scaled with
| his private seal. No article had over been sold in
tbs country under the name Of schnapps prior to
| the introduction Of Wolfo's schiedsm Aromatic
Schnapps, in 1851 and the label was deposited, as
his trade mark In the United States District Court
sos the Southern District of New York during that
| year.
1t might be supposed by persons unacquained
VIZ. the dtring character of the pirates who prey
npon the reputation ofhonorable merchants by vend-
' dclcterous trash under their nanoa that tho pro-
,nctions so carefully thrown around those sehnapps
would have prccluded the introductions and sale OF
/ oeuntcrfcits. They seem, however, only to have
aamulated the rapaoity of impostors. The trade
mark of thc proprietor has been steen the indorse-
ent which his sohiedam Aromatic schnapps alone
/, claimed by nendacious hupbugs; his labels and
bottles have boen initiated his advertisements para
| phrascd, hts circulars copied, and worse than ALL
dishonorabc retailers after disposing of the genuine
contents of his bottles, have filed them up with
common gin, the most dele:erioas of ali liquors. and
| thus made his name and brand cover for poison.
Tho public, the medical profession and the sick
| for whom the schiedam Aromatic schnaPps is pre-
sorbed as remedy, arc equally inerestes with the

finest quality, und favored with essential extract

Complaints haSc been received from the loading
physicians and families in tho Southern States Of

he has produced from under tho hands Of the most
distnguis hed men cf science in America proofs un
answerable Of the purity and medicinal excel
lenco Of tho Schiedam Aromatic schnarps that
