The aboYe is fac simile of label we
are placing upon whisky we have sue
ceeded In getting control OF with some
difficulty. ALI of the physicians to whom
We have shown it pronounce it superior
to anything yet brought to this market for
medical and family use.
Almost all writers and eminent prac-
ticioners of medicine admit and recon-
mend whisky--when OF good quality-as
preferable as q medicinal agent to brandy
for various reasons, the most important Of
which is: it is much more likely to be of
good quality, as its mode of manufacture
is simpler; its action in low fevers rs n
diffusive stimulant is equal to brandy in
potency, while it does not produce the
painful burning in the stomach SO often
complained of when brandy is used; in
staying the waste of tissue of consu mp
ton of the lungs, nothing, except it may
be cod liver oil. has yet been found to
equal it. The above being true, the diff
ference in price should be taken into con-
federation, which is quite an item usually
Ito those who are so unfortunate as to be
Ill. A single trial of our goods we are as
sured will convince the purchaser it is
something superior to anything they ever
used of the kind.
