THE value "of this well-known Family Medicine has been largely tested in all parts of the world, and by all grades of society, for upwards of FIFTY YEARS. Its well-earned, extensive sale has induced SPURIOUS IMITA-; TIONS, some of which in OUTWAED APPEARANCE so closely resemble the original as to have deceived many purchasers.

Purchasers are therefore requested to carefully; obserre thei foui foUowin/s im portant characteristics, without which none is genuine :— lgt—ln avery case the words JOHN STEEDMAN, CHEMIST, WAL WORTH, SURREY, are engraved on the Government Stamp affixed to each packet. 2nd.—'Each Single Powder has directions for the dose, and the words, Jobh Strbdman, Chemist, Walworth, Surrey, printed thereon, 3rd.—The name, Steedman, is always spelt with two EE's. 4th.—The manufacture is carried on solely at Walworth, Surrey.
