Only last week we examined the beer
5rewed by the Capital Brewing Com
Dany Of Olympia, Wash, and it is
perfect illustration of the quality of
beer which we are always glad to COM
mend, for the analysis showed it to be
entirely free from any trace of any in
furious substance. Such a high grade
of beer is most beneficial in its use, for
none Of the pure malt and hops have
been displaced by harmful ingredients.
Every hygienist will concur with us in
saying that a beer of such superior
excellence is a very wholesome bever-
age. Physicians often have occasion
50 prescribe a pure beer for cases of
debilitation, and they can safely order
this beer, made by the Capital Brewing
Company.
L. H Dee has in his keeping the
American Journal of Health and can
be seen by anyone.
This beer can be had in bottle or on
.7raught at the HOFFMAN, corner of
Hotel and Nuuanu streets. A large as
sortment of the very best of American
and foreign liquors we are pleased to
sell you and give you value for the
Nneht Of your health.
Yours /. II. DEE,
Proprietor of HOFFMAN.
