The value of this well-known Family Medicine has been largely testc * in all parts of the world, and by all grades of society, for upwards of fifty tears. Its wellearned extensive sale has induced spurious imitations, some of which in outward appearance so closely resemble the original as to/ have deceived many purchasers. The pro- 1 prietor therefore feels it due to the public to give a special caution against the use of such imitations. Purchasers are therefore requested carefully to observe the four following distinctive characteristics, without which none are genuine :—: — 1. In every case the words JOHN STEEDMAN, Chemist, Walworth, Surrey, are engraved on the Government Stamp affixed to each packet. 2. Each single powder has directions for the dose, and the words, John Steedman Chemist, Walworth, Surrey, printed thereof 3. The name Steedman is always spelt with two ee's. 4. The manufacture is carried on solely at Walworth, Surrey. Sold in Packet by all Chemists and Mcdi cine Vendors, at Is l£d and 2s 9d each. Sold by Kempthorne, Prosser, and Co., Dunedin, Otago.
