SOLE IMPOBT. OF THE SCHIEDAM ABOMATIC SCHNAPPS
22 BF. AV KU STE BET, NEW YORK. NOV. 3. 'fia.
Tb the People of the Southern States.
When the pure medicinal restorative, now ao
widely known as Wolfe's SCHIEDAM SCHNAPPS,
waa introduced into the world, under tho endorse?
ment of 4,000 leading members of the medical pro?
fession, some twenty years ago. HB proprietor waa
well aware that it could not wholly escapo tho
penalty attachod to new and useful preparations.
He, therefore, endeavored to invoat it with the
ntrongost possible safeguard against counterfeit?
ers, and to render all attempts to pirate it difficult
and dangerous. It was submitted to distinguish?
ed chemists for analyais, and pronounced by thom
tho purest apirit over manufactured. Its purity
and properties haviug been thus ascertained,
samples of tho article Wurt- forwarded to 10,000
physcians, including all tin leading practitioners
in the United States, for purposes of experiment.
A circular, requesting a tritl of Hie preparation
and a report of the result, accompanied each
Bpecimou. 4,000 of the most eminent medical men
in the Union promptly responded. Their opinions
of the article wero unanimously favorable. Such a
preparation, they suid, bad long been wanted by
tho profession, as no reliance could bo placed on
the ordinary liquors of commerce; all of which
wore moro "or loss adulterated, and, therefore,
unfit for medical purposes. Tho peculiar excel?
lence and strength of tho oil of juniper, which
formed one of the principal ingredients of tho
Schnapps, together with an unalloyed character
of the alcoholic element, give it, in the estimation
of the faculty, a marked superiority over every
other diffusive stimulant as a diuretic, tonic and
restorative.
These satisfactory credentials from professional
men of tho highest rank were published in a
condcuaed form, and enclosed with each bottle
ot tho Schnapps, as one of tho guarantees of itt
genuinouosa. Other precautions against fraud
were also adopted; a patent was obtained for the
article, tho label waa copyrighted, a/ac simile, ol
tho proprietor's autograph signature waa attached
to each label and cover, bis name and that of thc
preparation were embossed on the bottles, and thc
corks were sealed with bia private seal. No article
had over been sold in this country under the nairn
of Schnappa prior to tho introduction r>f Wolfe'i
Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, in 1851; and thc
label was deposited, as his trade mark, in thc
United States District Court for tho Southern Dis
trict of New York during that year.
It might be Bnpposed, Dy peraons unacquaintri
with the daring character of thc pirates wiio pre;
upon thc reputation of honorable merchants, b;
vending deleterious trash under their namo, tba
the protections so carofully thrown around thesi
Schnapps would have precluded the introduction
and salo of counterfeits. They seem, however
only to have stimulated the rapacity of impostcrs
Tho trade mark of thc proprietor has been stolen
i tho endorsement which his Schiedam Aromati
Schnapps alono received from tho medical pro
fcBsinn has been claimed by mendacious humbnge
his labels an bottles have been imitated, his ad
vcrtisemonta paraphrased, his circulars copied
and, worse than all, dishonorable retailers, aftc
disposing of the genuine contents of his bottle*
have tilled them up with common gin, the mot
deleterious of all liquors, and thus made his nam
and brand a cover for poison.
The public, the medical profession and the ei -1
i for whom tho Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps i
prescribed as a remedy, aro equally interested wit
tho proprietor in tho detection and suppression c
these nefarious practices. The genuine articli
manufactured at the establish m eu I of the undci
?igned, in Schiedam, Holland, is "distilled from
barley of tho finest ciuality. and flavored with a
essential extract of the berry of the Italia
juniper, of unequalled purity. Hy a process ul
known in thc preparation of any other liquor, it :
freed from every acrimonious a-id corrosive c!i
ment.
Complaints have been received from the leadin
physicians and families in the Southern State
of tho sale of cheap imitations of the Schiedai
Aromatic Schuapps in those markets; and travc
era, who aro in the habit of using it as an ant ido
to thc baneful influence of unwholesomo rivi
water, testify that choap gin, put up in Schicda
bottles, is frequently palmed off upon tho unwar
Thojagonts of tho undersigned have been rcqucstc
to institut" inquiries on the subject, and to fo
ward to him the namea of such parties as tin
may ascortaiu to be engaged in tho atrocioi
system of deception. In conclusion, thc undo
signed would say that lie has produced, from und
the hands of tho most distinguished men
science in America, proofs unanswerable of tl
purity and mcdiciual cxccllcn?o of tho Schicda
Aromatic Schnapps; that he lias expended mai
thousand dollars in surrounding it with gu?rante
and safeguarda, which ho designed should prote
the public and himself against fraudulent imit
tiona; that he has shown it to bo thc only liquor
the world that can bo uniformly depended upi
as unadultnratcd; that ho has challenged inves
gation, analysis, comparison, and experiment
all its forms; and from every ordeal the pref
ration which bears his name, seal and trado mai
has como f)ff triumphant. He, therefore, feels ii
duty ho owes to his fellow-citizens generally,
tho medical profession and tho sick, to denoan
and cxpoBO tho Charlatans who counterfeit tin
evidences of identity, and be calls upon the pn
and tho public to aid him in his efforts to renie
so great an ovil.
Tho following letters and certificates, from t
leading physicians and chemists of this city, v
prove to the reader that all goods sold by t
undersigned aro all thev aro represented to bo.
UDOLPHO WOLFE
I feel hound to say, that I regard your Schnar
as being, in ovory" respect, pre-eminently pu
and deserving o? medical patronage. At allcvon
it is tho pures* possible article of Holland G
heretofore unobtainable; and, as such, may
aafelv prescribed by physicians.

DEAU SIB: I have made a chemical examin?t
of a sample of your Schiedam Schnapps, w
tho intent of determining if any foreign orinjurii
substance had been added to tho simplo distil
spirits.
DEAB Sm: The want of pure Wines aud Liquc
for medicinal purposes, bas been long felt by
profession, and thousands of livoa have been s
rificod by tho uso of adulterated articles. Dcliri
tremens, and other diseases of tho brain i
nerves, BO rifo in this country, aro very rare
Europo; owing, in a great degree, to tho difforo
in tho purity of tho spirits sold.
Wo havo tested tho sevora? articles impor
and sold by you, including your Oin, which ;
sell undor the namo of Aromatio Schied
Schnapps, which we consider justly entitled to
high roputation it has acquired in thia conni
and, from your long oxpericnco as a foreign
porter, your Bottlod Wines and Liquors abo
meet with tho same demand.
We would recommend you to appoint som*
tho respectable? apothecaries in different part
the city as agents for tho salo of your Dram
and Winos, where the profession can obtain
same when necdod for medicinal purposes.
Wishing you success in your now enterprise,
