• P-** AKD Wokth_-S8 *are" never imitated or counterfeited. This is especiaUy true tifo family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated ia of the highest value. As soon as it hid been tested ond proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best ond most valuablefomilymedicine on eorth.mony imitations sprung up ond began to steal the notices m which the press and the people of the country hod expressed the merits of H. 8., and in .-very way-trying to induce suffering invaUds to use their stuff instead, expecting to. make money on 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, the word " Hop" or "Hops" were used in a way to induce people to beUeve they were the same as Hop Bitters. AU such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially those with the word "Hop", or "Mops" in their name, or in any way connected with them or their name, are imitations br counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of them. Use nothing but genuine American Hop Bitters, with a bunch or clusterjof green Hops on the white label, and Dr. Soule's name blown in the glass. Trust nothing else. Druggists and Chemists are worried against dealing in imitations or counterfeits.—fAnrr.] ""- -"■■ '<
