NEW YORK. July 10. 1888.
MrS Harriet Hubbard Ayer;
Dear Aadsm,-We have. In accordance with
your wish, inspected your works, studied the
processes and examined the materials used In
the preparation Of RecaIner Cream and vita
NuOYa Our opinions Ia tho matter are az fol-
lows:
The constituents OF the Recamler Cream are
Well-known remedial agents, and their proper
ties are fully described and authorized Ia the
American and French PhArmacopeias.
They are combined IN a way which. while
novel. Is chemically correct .ho resulting preDa-
ration being perfectly safe and beneficial for the
uses specified. In the proper sense Of the word,
Recamor cream Is not cosmetic, but a rome
dial agent for the skin.
The average druggist would be unable % puE
up tho Recamier Cream from the correct for
mula, since the operations involved In It's suc-
cessful production require mechanical manipu-
lauons, for which he Is NOT prepared and which
would DO dnlculs, II not practically impossible,
on asmau scale. Nor II he had the apparatus
and mechanical appliances required In its pro-
ductlon could he mako IL as choaply a. you do,
unless he went into the manufacture on an
equality large scale and bought the Ingredients
IN large quantities.. Prepared in small amounts
the selling price must DO considerably higher
than that hIed by you
Tho Vita Nuova Is in no sense Wine OF Coca,
Il is compounded Of An excellent brand Of wine,
IN which arc dissolved ths substances that i'm
part to it its SPECIFIC properties As remedial
agent The substances used in IT'S preparation
are all OF fine grade, and are obtained from we'll
known and trustworthy Manufacturers
Vita Nuoya Is unqussd0nably tonic suitable
20 stimulate and siren ytben the nervous system,
and Is valuable In cases Of dyspepsia and indi-
gestion. The Vita NuoYa is male on large
scale and a. the Ingredients are hence bought
in large amounts and the operations are to a
great extent mechanical, It has been possible to
nK the selling price OF this article asa figuro
considerably lower than that 81 which IL would
pay q druggist to put it up from q prescription.
