Tme Bad and Worthless are never imitated or counterfeited. This is especially trpe of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is pf the highest value. As sopn as it has beep tested arid proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best, and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imitations sprung up and began to steal the notices in whiph the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H, 8., and in every way trying to induce sudering invalids 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 I names in which the word “ Hop ” or “Hops ” were used in a way to induce people to believe they were the same as Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially those with the word “Hop” or “Hops” in their name or in any way connected with them or their name, arc imitations or counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of them. Use nothing genuine Hop Bitters, or cluster of green Hops on the white label, and Dr Soule’s name blown in the glass. Trust nothing else. Druggists and chemists are warned against dealing in imita (ions counterfeits.
