THE REASON.

Why, L. w. Harper's Nelson
County Whiskey is preferred above
all other brands is because it is the
most regular and perfect product,
Incontestably ever made. A long
experience the manufacture of the
Harper, the large capital of the
distIller, which enables him to hold
his whiskey until it has fully ma
tured. together with the fact that
the whiskey is bought 6y and ship
ped to US direct from the disIillery,
accounts for the unvarying satisfac
ton it has given those best edu-
Gated to a fine whisky.
