HOPE. i i : i Office of Adolpho Wolf?, SOLE IMPOST, or run 80 airo AM AEOXATIO SCHWAPPS HIM BIA VEE STEKKT, N?w Yow, Hov. 3, '68V To the Feople of the Southern States. When tho puro m odie i nal restorative, DOW SO I widely known M Wolfe's 80 HIED AM SCHNAPPS, was introduced into the world, tinder the eadorse rncnt of 4,000 leading members of the medical pro? fession, some twenty years ago, its proprietor was well aware that it contd not wholly escape the penalty attached to new and useful preparations. He, therefore, endeavored to invest it with the strongoBt possiblo safeguard against counterfeit? ers, and to ronder all attempts to pirate it difficult and dangerous. It was submitted to distinguish? ed chemists for analysis, and pronounced by them tho purest spirit evor manufactured. Its purity and propertios having been thus ascertained, samples of the articlo wero forwarded to 10,000 pfeysejana. ;^c?^d:::g -?l thc '.....ding practitioners in the United States, for purposes of experiment. A circular, requesting a trial of the preparation and a report of the result, accompanied each specimen. 4,000 of tho moat eminent medical men in tho Union promptly responded. Thoir opinions of the artiole were unanimously favorable Such a preparation, they said, had long been wanted by tho profession, as no rolianco could be placod on the ordinary liquors of commerce; all of which wore more or less adulterated, and, therefore, unfit for medical purposes. The peculiar excel? lence and strength of tho oil of juniper, which formed one of tho principal ingredients of the Schnapps, together with an unalloyed character of the alcoholic ?l?ment, give it, in tho estimation of the faculty, a marked superiority over every other diffuaivo stimulant as a diuretic, tonic and restorative. Theso satisfactory credentials from professional men of tho highest rank wero p iblishcd in a condensed form, and enclosed with each bottle of tho Schnapps, as ono of the guar itcca ot its genuineness. Other precautions ag .inst fraud were ?deo adopted; a patent was obta. ed for tho article, tho label was copyrighted, a/ ?imite of tho proprietor's autograph signature waj attached to each labol and cover, his namo and that of tho preparation were embossed on tho bottles, and tho corks wore sealed with his private seal. No article had evor been sold in this country undor tho namo of Schnapps prior tu tho introduction of Wolfe's Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, in 1851; and the label was deposited, as his trade mark, in tho United States District CourCror the Southern Dis? trict of New York during that year. It might be supposed, by persons unacquainted with the daring character of the pirates who prey upon tho reputation ot honorable merchants, by vending deleterious trash under their name, tha,t tho protections so carefully thrown around these Schnapps would have precluded the introductions and Bale of counterfeits. They seem; however, only to havo stimulated thc rapacity of impostors. The trade mark of the proprietor has been stolen; the endorsement which bis Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps alone received from the medical pro? fession has been claimed hy mendacious humbugs; his labels an bottles have been imitated, his ad? vertisements paraphrased, his circulars copied, and, worse than all, dishonorable retailers, aftci disposing of tho genuino contents of his bottles, havo tilled them up with common gin, the most deleterious of all liquors, and thus made his uamc and brand a cover for poison. The public, the medical profession and thc sick tor whom thc fc'chiodam Aromatic Schnapps it prescribed as a remedy, arc equally interested witt tho proprietor in tho detection and suppression o theso uefarioaa practices. The genuine article manufactured at thc establishment of tho under signed, in Scbiodam, Holland, is distilled from 1 barley of the fincbt quality, and flavored with ai essential extract of tho berry of the Italiai juniper, of unequalled purity. By a process un known in tho preparation of any other liquor, it ii freed from every acrimonious and corrosive eic ment. Complaints have boen received from tho badin;, physicians and families in tho Southern States of tho sale of cheap imitations of tho Schicdan Aromatic Schnapps in those markets; and travel ers, who are in tho habit of using it as an antidot. to the baneful influence of unwholesome rive water, testify that cheap gin, put up in Schicdan bottles, is frequently palmed oft' upon tho unwary Thc'agen te of tho undersigned have been request e. to institute inquiries on tho subject, and to for ward lo him tho names of such parties as the; may ascertain to bo engaged in the atrociou system of deception. In conclusion, the under signed would Bay that ho bas produced, from unde the hands of the most distinguished men 0 science in America, proofs unanswerable of th purity and medicinal excellence of the Schiedst Aromatic Schnapps; that ho has expended man thousand dollars in surrounding it with guarantee and safeguards, which ho designed should protec the public and himself against fraudulent imita tiona; that he has shown it to be the only liquor i tho world that can bo uniformly dopenden upo as unadulturated; that he has challenged invost: gation, analysis, comparison, and experiment i all its forms; and from every ordeal tho preps ration which bears his name, soal and trade marl has como off triumphant. He, therefore, feels it duty he owes to his follow-citizons generally, t the medical profession and tho sick, to denounc and expose the Charlatans who counterfeit thee evidences of identity, and ho calls upon tho pre? and tho public to aid him in his efforts to reined BO great an evil. The following letters and certificates, from tl: leading physicians and chemists of this city, wi prove to the reader that all goods sold by tl undersigned aro all they aro represented to be. UDOLPHO WOLFE. I feel bound to say*, that I regard your Schnap] as being, in every respect, pro-cminently pur and deserving of medical patronage. At all event it is the purest possible article of Holland Oi heretofore unobtainable; and, as such, may 1 safely prescribed bv plnsicians. ' DAVID L. MOTT, M.
