This la especially true of a family medicine, and it is a positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As soon as it had been tested and proved by tho who!o world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best, and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imitations sprang up and began to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country . nafl expressed the merits of H. 8., and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to use their stuff instead, expecting to make money oh the credit and good name of H.B. Many Others started nostrums put up in similar style to H. 8., with variously-devised names.in which tne -word " Hop " or " Hops " were used in a way to Induce people to believe they wero the same as Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, Bna especially those with the word " Hop " or Hops" in their name ijr in any way connected With them or their name, are imitations or counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of them. Use nothing but genuine American Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of green Hops on, the white label, and Dr Soule's name blowri In ■pie glass. Trust nothing else. Druggists andVChemists are warned against dealinz in imMtions or counterfeits. . ■dMsalw to Many Correspondents, In renjm t° numerous enquiries from oui Jeaderg/ovflpcerning the wonderful qualities ol the Great vflßorman Remedy, St. Jacob'B Oil, ---5} eßtionedi3|kour last issue,—we would infont them that tirJa article may be obtained from oui ?*&H SSall?' or by their aid.
