" IMITATION is the SINCEREST FLATTERY." The articles most imitated are CLEMENTS TONIC and FLETCHER'S PILLS. • WHY? BECAUSE they have the best reputation and are most in demand by . the public, consejiuently, every dishonest trader tries to trade on their fame and renown. It is really wonderful that the Australian people are. so slow to see the truth as regards the unscrupulous quacks and charlatans who prey on the credulity of the Australian public. Scarcely a week ever passes but what the press exposes the barefaced and shameful practices of some of these harpies, yet, in face of all they seem to thrive, and the paper who hounds them down most thrives fattest on their advertisements and cracks champagne over ench balance-sheet.

Therefore do uot lie put off' with imitations but use a genuine artie'e and see that yon get Ceeabe's Al Cofi-'ee, the best procurable, j
