SCHIEDAM AROMATIC SCHNAPPS,
22 BK WER BTREET, NKW YORK, Nov. 3, '68.
2b Hie People of the Southern Stalet.
When the puro medicinal restorative,
now so widely known as WOLFE'S SCHIE?
DAM SCHNAPPS, was introduced into the
world, under the endorsement of 4,000
loading members of tho medical profes?
sion, some twenty years ago, its proprie?
tor was well awaro that it could not wholly
escape the penalty attached to all new and
useful preparations, ne, therefore, en?
deavored to invest it with the strongest
possible safeguard against counterfeiters,
and *o render all attempts to pirate it dif?
ficult and dangerous. It was submitted
to distinguished chemists for analysis, and
pronounced by them tho purest spirit ever
manufactured. Its purity and properties
having boen thus ascertained, samples of
tbs article were forwarded to 10,000 physi?
cians, including all the leading practition?
ers in the United States, for purposes of
experiment. A circular, requesting a trial
of tho preparation and a report of thc re?
sult, accompanied each specimen. 4,000
of tho most eminent medical men in tho
Union promptly responded. Their opiuious
of tho article were unanimously favorable.
Such a preparation, they said, had long
been wanted by the profession, as no reli?
ance could be placed on tho ordinary
liquors of commerce; all of which were
more or less adulterated, and, therefore,
unfit for medical purposes. Tho peculiar
oxcellenco and strength of tho oil of juni?
per, which formed one of tho principal in?
gredients of the Schnapps, together with
an unalloyed character of thc alcoholic
clement, give it, in tho estimation of the
faculty, a marked superiority over every
other diffusive stimulant as a diuretic,
tonic and restorative.
Tubae satisfactory credentials from pro?
fessional men of thu highest rank wero
published in a condensed form, and en?
closed with each bottle of thc Schnapps,
as ono of the guarantees of its gonuine- i
ness. Other precautions against fraud
wore also adopted; a patent was obtained
for the article, tho label waa copyrighted,
& fae simile o? the proprietor's autograph
signaturo was attached to each label and
cover, his namo and that of tho prepara?
tion were embossed on tho bottles, and the
cork? wore sealed with his private seal.
No article had ever boen sohl in this coun?
try under the name of Schnapps prior to
tho introduction of Wolfe's Schiedam Aro?
matic Schnapps, in 1851; and the label was
deposited, as his trade mark, in tho United
States District Court for the Southern Dis?
trict of New York during that year.
It might bo supposed, by persons unac?
quainted with tho daring character of the
Ei rate? who prey upon tho reputation of
onorablo merchants, by vending delete?
rious trash under their name, that the
protections so carefully thrown around
these Schnapps would have precluded tho
introductions and sale of counterfeits.
They seem, howover, only to have stimu?
lated the rapacity of impostors. The trade
mark of the proprietor has been stolen:
the endorsement which his Schiedam
Aromatic Schnapps alono received from
the medical profession has bcon claimed
by mendacious humbugs; his labels aud
bottles have boen imitated, his advertise?
ments paraphrased, his circulars copied,
and, worse than all, dishonorable retailers,
after disposing of the genuine contents of
his bottles, have lilied them up with com?
mon gin, the most deleterious of all
liquors, and thus made Iiis name ami
brand a cover for poison.
Tho public, the medical profession and
tho sick, for whom tho Schiedam Aromatic
Schnapps is prescribed as a remedy, are
equally interested with the proprietor in
tho detection and suppression of these ne?
farious practices. The genuino article,
manufactured at the establishment of tho
undersigned, in Schiedam, Holland, is dis?
tilled from a barley of the finest quality,
and flavored with an essential extract of
thu berry of the Italian juniper, of une?
qualled purity. By a process unknown in
the preparation of any other liquor, it is
freed from every acrimonious and corro?
sivo element.
Complaints have been received from tho
leading physicians and families in tito
Southern States, of tho sale of cheap imi?
tations of thc Schiedam Aromatic
Schuapps in those markets; and travelers,
who are in the h abit of using it as an anti?
doto to the baneful influence of unwhole?
some river water, testify that cheap gin,
put up in Schiedam bottles, is frequently
palmed off upon the unwary. The agents
of the undersigned bavo been requested to
instituto inquiries on the subject, and to
forward to hun tho names of such parties
BB iin: Y ii i HY noCCi iain io be engaged lil
tho atrocious system of deception. In
conclusion, tho undersigned would say
that ho has produced, from under thc
hands of the most distinguished men of
science in America, proofs unanswerable
of tho purity and medicinal oxcollonce of
tho Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps; that he
has expended many thousand dollars in
surrounding it with guarantees and safe?
guards, which ho designed should protoot
tho public and himself against fraudulent
imitations; that he has shown it to bo tho
only liquor in tho world that can bo uni?
formly depended upon aa unadulterated;
that he has challenged investigation,
Analysis, comparison, and experiment in
all its forms; and from every ordeal the
preparation which beare his name, aoal
and trade mark, has come oft* triumphant.
He, therefore, feels it a duty he owes to his
folio w-cltixons generally, to the medical
profession and tho eic!?, to denounce and
oxpoae the Charlatans who counterfeit
these evidences of identity, and he calls
upon tho press and the publie to aid him
in his efforts to romedy so groat an evil.
The following letters and certificates,
I from tho leading physicians and'chemists
J_LL-J_I1 I. I_i-UL-L
of tbfil city, ?rill prove to tho reader that
all gooda sold by the undersigned ar? all
they are represented to be.
; UDOLPHO WOLFE.
I f?al bound to say, that I regard your
Schnapps aa being, in every r?sped, pre?
eminently pur?, and | deserving of medical
patronage. At all events, it IB the purest
possible artiole of Holland Oin, berotofore
unobtainable; and, as euch, may be safely
prescribed bv physicians.

been added to the ?imple distilled spirits.
DEAR SIR: Tue want of pure Wines and
Liquors, for medicinal purpoaoB, has boen
long felt by the profession, and thousand?
of lives have beon sacrificed by the uae of
adulterated article?. Delirium tremens,
and other diseases of tho brain and nerves,
so rifo in this country, are very raro in
Europe; owing, in a great dogree, to tho
difference in the purity of the spirits aold.
Wo have tent?n tho sovoral articles im?
ported and sold by you, including your
Oin, which you soil under tho name of Aro?
matic Schiedam Schnapps, which we con
sidor justly entitled to tho high reputation
it baa acquired in thid country; and, from
your long experience as a foreign impor?
ter, your Hottlod Wines and Liquors
should meet with tho same demand.
We would recommend you to appoint
some of the respectable apothecaries in
different parts of the city as agenta for tho
Balo of your Brandies and Winos, where
tho profession can obtain the paine when
needed for medicinal purpose?.
Wishing you succesa in your new enter?
prise, wo remain vour obedient aervants.
