TO THE PATRONS OF
PERRY DAVIS'
VEGETABLE
EH.
Owing to the large amount ot i. ounterieit FamK,
put up and sold as genuine by unprincipled men, w
have been obliged to resort to very expensive mmor(
to protect ourselves pecuniarily, and the public fr0a
great injury, by buying and using their worthlen com.
teifeits. The comparative plain and simple lye j'
which our Pain Kilter has been put up, hasnud,,;
yery easy for those disposed, to imitate it very80Ctft
fully, as far as its external appearance, in style of bou
tie, lable, and color of the article ; but we need not u.
that the compound is a miserable, filthy production, lnJ
calculated to do great injury to those who might uitit
with the confidence that they have been accutomd
to use the genuine Pain K.ller. Parties whose bun.
pess it is to counterfeit valuable preparation do it k
such a secret manner, that it is almost use less to it.
tempt to punish them by legal measures, as it tig.
cult, and we might say impossible to bring the proof
home to them.
Consid, ring the great difficulty in protecting on,,
selves and the public by prosecuting parties, we hit,
heen to a very great expense in getting up a finely
executed
STEEL ENGRAVED LABEL,
for our bottles. We also attach io our bottles a Steel
Engraved Note of Hand, which we issue as our blip,
tion, and to counterfeit which is held to be forgery L
the laws pf the United States, and which parties sj3
not dare attempt to do. The great expense attendiag
the getting rp and printing of these labels will prevent
the attempt to counterfeit, thus securing to tht poblic
that the article they purchase is the genuine Perr?
Davis' Eain Killer, manufactured by Perry Davis s
Son, Sole Proprietors.
The Pain Killer will be put up in a new style of pant
bottle, with'fhe words,
Davis' Vegetable Pain Killer,
blown in the Class. We have discontinued the use of
the 37 cent bottles and now put up only f mr sixes
viz: 12J cents, 25 cents, 50 cents and 91 per bottle.
We have also a yry fine Engraving on StQne for tbe
Box labels, specifying the contents ot the box, wbere
and by whom manufactured, Ac. We have also sdued
to our Pamphlet of directions and certificates a covet
beautifully finished, presenting on the first page a very
excellent likeness of Perry Dayis, the original inventor
of the Pain Killer. The bottle labels, and one label
on each box, has also a correct likeness, f Perry Dsvii,
A-hich it will be impossible to counterfeit successfully
We have been to this expense, that the public tnigbt
have perfect confidence that tht-y were getting tbe gen
uine article when they buy a bottle as above describ
ed. To those who have so long used and proved tbe
merits of our article, we would say that we shall cor
tinue to prepare our Pain Killer of the best and purei:
materials, and that it shall be every way worthy si
their approbation as a family medicine.
