STBEDMAN'B SOOTHINGPOWDERS FOR CUTTING TEETH CAUTION TO PURCHASERS. mHE value "of this well-known Family Medicine has been largely tested in all j I parts of the world, and by all grades of nm? YE\RS. Its well-earned, extensive sale has induced SPURIOUS IMITA TIONS, some of which in OUTWARD APPEARANCE so closely resembe the original as to have deceived many purchasers. The propnetor, therefore, feeto it due to the public to give a special caution against the use of oUCiI IMIJ.A -TIONS Purchasers are therefore requested to carefully observe the four following im *K>rtant characteristics, without which none is genuine :— Ist—ln avery case the words JOHN STEEDMAN, CHEMIST, WAL WORTH, SURREY, are engraved on the Government Stamp affixed to each P 2nd.—Each Single Powder has directions for the dose, and the words, Johh Stbbdmah, Chemist, Walworth, Surrey, printed thereon. 3rd.—The name, Steedman, is always spelt with two EE 0. 4th.
