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 ifc had been tested and 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 which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H. 8., and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to uee their stuff instead,' expecting to mako money on the credit and good name of H. B. Many others started nostrums put up in sion* ilar style to H. 8., with variously devised names in 1 which the word " Hop " or " Hops " were ueed in a way to induce people to believe they were the same as Bop Bittere. All such pretended remedies or cures, no mutter what their style or name is, and especially thoße ■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 Bitter?, 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.
