The extraordinary Sale, wide-spread popularity, and wonderful results of Wolfe's ScHNArps prove in disputably that the introduction of a perfectly pure beverage is appreciated by the Australian public. The medical profession being the most competent in science, and responsible in society, of all others to form a correct judgment of the medicinal and salutary properties of an article of this kind would not give their unsolicited testimonials in special commendation of ScHiEDi-u Aromatic Schnapps were it a preparation of doubtful or even ordinary quality, nor unless they had proved its superior excellence and value In their own practice or experience. -: ■ - As a means of preventing the disagreeable and often dangerous effects' produced upon-the'stomach ana bowels by a change,of, water, or in,.the use of water I containing an infusion of decayed vegetable matter, which so often produces that obstinate form of Fever and Ague which so frightfully undermines the consti tXLtl°THE SCHIEDAM AROMATIC SCHNAPPS will be found absolutely infallible, while in cases Of Dropsy Gravel, Obstructions of the Kidneys, Diseases of the Bladder, Dyspepsia, Flatulency of Age and Infancy, and General Debility it is recommended most-em. phatically by- the,most distinguished members of the Medical Profession. ' "*" " , The folio-win pr reliable testimonials have been offered by the Australian Press : — ..; '■".. .7. Sydney Morning Herald.- ~:•' I'A " In these days when alcoholic liquors are so largely consumed, and consumers are so much in doubt whether their systems are not being gradually impaired by adulteration, it is weU that one at least of the popular beverages of the period is reliable as pure—that is Wolfe's Aromatic SchiedaM Schnapps. It is some thing "to be assured by physicians and other of the scientific cognoscenti that we have, in this article a genuine extract which, taken in moderate quantity aHd under ordinarily healthy conditions of body, affords a beneficial stimulus to the animal functions.; and, even if taken in excess, leaves but a minimum of the in evitable evils of abuse, , . , ....

" ! " Experience has proved the value of Wolfe's Schie-, dam Aromatic Schnapps as a stimulant,.at once in vigorating and harmless, and it may be used withmuch benefit by those requiring a pleasant and effective remedy. The medical officers of tli£ Sydney. Infirmary have tested its merits practically in various cases,' and bear willing testimony to its excellence, and we, there fore, feel no difficulty in recommending to the notice of our readers the Aromatic Schnapps;notonly"as a pure and agreeable occasional beverage, but,'\vhat'is of far more importance, as a really pleasant medicine.

I have examined a sample of Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps submitted'to me for analysis.
