No 9. The extraordinary Sale, wide-spread popularity, and wonderful results of Wolfe's Schnapps prove in-, disputably that the introduction of a perfectly pure I beverage is appreciated by the Australian public. The medical profession being the most competent in 1 - science, and responsible in society, of all others to | I form a correct judgment of the medicinal and salutary | 1 properties of an article of this kind would not give their ; i unsolicited testimonials in special commendation of •! i Schiedam Akomatic Schnapps were it a preparation. ! of doubtful or even ordinary quality, nor unless they:; I had proved its superior excellence and value in their:, own practice or experience. ' : [ As a means of preventing the disagreeable and often ' dangerous effect" produced upon the stomach and, I ij OW^]s i)y p ciiange of water, or in the use of water i I con f, D juing an infusion of decayed vegetable matter, j ! .viiich so often produces that obstinate form of Fever I and Ague which so frightfully undermines the consti- THE SCHIEDAM AROMATIC SCHNAPPS \ will be found absolutely infallible, while in cases of 1 Dropsy, Gravel, Obstructions of the Kidneys, Diseases of thel>ladder, 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 following reliable testimonials have been offered by the Australian Press:— Sydney Morning Herald. " 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 well 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 tho scientific cognoscenti that we have in this article a genuine extract which, taken in moderate quantity and 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. "If it is necessary in the interests of the public to denounce the too common practice of manufacturing noxious compounds as wines and spirits it seems only ust to point to this meritorious exception." Tov.n and Country Journal. "We have in these Schnapps a total absence of fusil oil which, combined with the great purity of all in gredients whence it is extracted, accounts for the unu sually healthy and invigorating quality which have already rendered this latest addition to the alcoholic list so justly celebrated." Bell's Life in Sydney. " 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 with much benefit by those requiring a pleasant and effective remedy. The medical officers of. the 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, not only as _a pure and agreeable occasional beverage, but, what is of far more importance, as a really pleasant modicine. Important Testimonials. " Sydney Infirmary, Nov. 11,1870. "I beg to state'that I have, with the permission of Honorary Physicians, given your Schnapps to several patients in our wards. I have no hesitation in stating rhat I consider your Schmqrps a most excellent Stimu lant h-Ad Diuretic, and of (treat value in cardiac and renal affections, and 1 believo *«ey will eventually 3 upersede all other Spirit* *" the treatment of the abov complamtiiTioN 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; is distilled 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 John son,. Govern ment Analytical Chemist We have appointed Messrs L. D.
