C4UTIONARY NOTICE.

A Warning to Dealers and Consumers
Against Worthless limitations of Meri-
torious Article on Which Over 500, 900
Has Been Expended in Newspaper Adj
vertising.
The public are hereby cautioned against pur-
chasing any so-called preparations of ''Tolu,
Rock and Rye" all OF which are counterfeits
or base and worthless limitations of the genu-
inc article, which is only prepared by LAW
RENEE 6 MARTIN, of Chicago, Ill. Beware of
all parties offering goods claiming to be the
same or similar compounds; as the formula of
Tolu, Rock and Rye is only known at the
patent Office at Washington, D. c., by the
proper authorities, and is held there as secret
of such value as to warrant them in issuing
to LAWRENCE 81 MARTIN proprietary stamp
for Tolu, Rock and Rye. There has been an
outlay of over $780, 00 to make these goods
known to the public, hence the attempt Of un-
principled parties to palm off other cheap i'm
itations upon the trade and public generally.
The genuine article can always be identified,
as it bears the United States government
