THE BAD AND WORTHLESS Are never imitated or counterfeited. This is especially true of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As soon as it had been tested and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best and the most valuable family medicine on earth, many imitations sprung up and began to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H. P>., and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to use their stuff instead, expecting to make money and credit on the good name of IT. B. Many others started nostrums put up in similar style to H. 8., with variously devised names in which the word “ Hop' 1 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, 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 blown in the glass. Trust nothing else. Druggists and Chemists are warned against dealing in imitations or counterfeits. “ You Don’t Know Tiieiu Value.”— “ They cured me of biliousness and kidney complaint, as recommended. I had a half-bottle left, which I used for my two little girls, who the doctors and the neighbours said could not be cured. I am confident I should have lost both of them one night if I had not had the American Co.’s Hop Bitters in my house to use. That is why I say yon do not know half the value of American Hop Ritters, and do not recommend them highly enough.” See ; "• d. Jin troy and Co..
