B. Many others started nostrums put up in sunilar style to H. 8., with variously devised names in which the word " Hop " or " Hops " were wed 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 same or in any way connected with them or their same,. are imitations or counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of them. T7ee nothing but genuine American Hop Bitters, vith a bunch or cluster of green Hops on the white* label, and Dr Soule'a name blown in the glass. Trust noihing else. -Druggists and Chemists are warned against dealing in imitations or counterfeits.
