Schnapps. > Important Puhlic Notice- WOLEE'S AROMATIC SCHIE DAM SCHNAPPS, Registered undt Trade Marks" Act, 28 Vie. No 9. The extraordinary Sale, wide-spread popularity, an wonderful results of Wolfe's Schnapps prove ii disputably that the introduction of a perfectly pui beverage is appreciated by the Australian public. The medical profession being the most competent i 1 science, and responsible in society, of all others 1 - form a correct judgment of the medicinal and salutai properties of an article of this kind would not give the unsolicited testimonials in special commendation < Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps were it a preparatio of doubtful or even ordinary quality, nor unless the - had proved its superior excellence and value in the own practice or experience. As a means of preventing the disagreeable and ofte 1 dangerous effects produced upon the stomach an bowels by a change of water, or in the use of watt " containing an infusion of decayed vegetable matte: which so often produces that obstinate form of Feve and Ague which so frightfully undermines the const [ tution, 1 THE SCHIEDAM AROMATIC SCHNAPPS 1 will be found absolutely infallible, while in cases c - Dropsy, Gravel, Obstructions of the Kidneys, Diseases c 1 the Bladder, Dyspepsia, Flatulency of Age and Infancj and General Debility it is recommended most en phatically by the most distinguished members of th . Medical Profession, The following reliable testimonials have been off ere by the Australian Press: — Sydney Morning Herald. " In these days when alcoholic Uquors are so largel consumed, and consumers are so much in dout whether their systems are not being gradually impaire by adulteration, it is well that one at least of th popular beverages of the period is reliable as pure— tlia is Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps. It is som< thing to be assured by physicians and other of th scientific cognoscenti that we have in this article genuine extract which, taken in moderate quantity an ' under ordinarily healthy conditions of body, affords beneficial stimulus to the animal functions ; and, eve: • if taken in excess, leaves but a minimum of the in i evitable evils of abuse. "If it is necessary in the interests of the public t 1 denounce the too common practice of manufacturin • noxious compounds as wines and spirits it seems onl; ust to point to this meritorious exception." Town and Country Journal. " We have in these Schnapps a total absence of fusi oil which, combined with the great purity of all in gredients whence it is extracted, accounts for the unu sually healthy and invigorating quaUty which hay already rendered this latest addition to the alcoholi Ust so justly celebrated." Bull's Life in Sydney. " Experience has proved the value of Wolfe's Schit dam Aromatic Schnapps as a stimulant at once in vigorating and harmless, and it may be used with mucl benefit by those requiring a pleasant and effectiv remedy. The medical officers of the Sydney Infirmar have tested its merits practically in various cases, am bear willing testimony to its excellence, and we, there fore, feel no difficulty in recommending to the notici of our readers the Aromatic Schnapps, not only as i pure and agreeable occasional beverage, but, what i: of far more importance, as a reaUy pleasant medicine. Important Testimonials. " Sydney Infirmary, Nov. 11, 1870. " I beg to state that I have, with the permission o; Honorary Physicians, given your Schnapps to several patients in our wards. I have no hesitation in statinj that I consider your Schnapps a most excellent Stirnu lant a*ci Diuretic, and of great value in cardiac anc renal affections, and 1 believe they wiU eventualli supersede all other Spirits in the treatment of the abovt complaints. LITTON FORBES, Resident Physician. „ Government Analytical Laboratory, Melbourne, March 15,1872. _ I have examined a sample of Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps submitted to me for analysis. From the examination I conclude that this spirit is perfectly free from Fusil Oil, or solid matters; isdistißed from malt only, as a sample of Holland's gin cannot be surpassed. It may therefore be recommended for use in Hospital and private practice as a good aromatic stimulant. — (Signed) William Johnson, Govern ment Analytical Chemist. We have appointed Messrs L. D. Nathan & Co. Sub-Agents for the sale of Wolfe's Sclmapps in Auck land, New Zealand.—M. Moss & Co., Sydney, Sole Agents for Australia and New Zealand. Auckland, New Zealand. I certify that I have carefuUy examined and analysed WoWs Aromatic Schnapps, and find the sample given me to be a very strong, pure spirit, free from adultera tion or any deleterious or any offensive matter, and I believe useful in all cases where a pure gin is indicated. I have also submitted the sample to patients who have been accustomed to this description of stimulant, and it has been universally Uked and approved of as a strong, pure, wholesome spirit, and as such I can re commend it.—Charles F.
