GEO; GRAHAM, Acting Secretary of War . June 28. wlstO Beware of Counterfeits!// '■ I HAVE detected T. W. Diorr, a Druggist in Philadelphia, in the habit of counterfeiting my Patent New Lom/onßillious Pills”—and disposing of his spurious imitations; with the intent of deceiving the public as for my genuine Pills, so well known and approved. — Having reason to be’ieve, that he has sent some of his counterfeitis for sale at Augusta, and other Southern Ci i“8, I deem It to be my duty to caution the citizens who are familiarized to the ef fects and operations of my genuine Pa tent Pills, as well as others, to be on their guard in purchasing as the Ise Pills are, and of course must be entirely a different Medicine. The counterfeit bill of direction on each box, is an exact copy of the true bill, but the letter " * to” in the signature of my name 6. H. P. Lee, is by mistake of the printer made like an “Jj ” thus U ” ' v^iereas * n the genuine bill the letter is made thus ”a distinction so notorious that by only casting the eye to the signature in script type,always re membering that if the letter ” is brought round at bottom like iinil J[j” instead of terminating to the left with a dot, it is certainly counterfeit. 'The Counterfeit Box hgsniy name S. I|. P. LEE stamped upon the covers, without any indentation of the tin; but, tlfe genuine stamps make a depression th * w idth of the letters; the top part of the letter?, in the genuine stamp upon (he covers of the boxes, is perceptibly lower than the line of the others—the counterfeits are on a line, a handsome letter, and stamped without depressing (he tin—the counterfeit Pjlls are of a dark brown couluur—the genuine arc of a bluish cast. Caleb Tayler, and Peter Lehman Druggists in Philadelphia, have also been detected counterfeiting my Pills; both have omitted (knowing it to be for gery) affixing my name to the covers of the boxes, or bills of directions; Lehman puls his own name to (he covers of the boxes, and Taylor upon the bill, and leaves the cover of the box without any lett' rs—These arc so palpable, that the purchaser can at once preccive their false character, in the want of my name at the bottom of the bill and upon the covers of the boxes. I (rust an intelligent and discerning public will, from motives of safety, frown upon such nefarious at tempts to deceive them, and destroy their wicked designs "by caVcfully observ ing the above caution in purchasing. My genuine Pills as usual, may always be, had of ISAAC HERBERT escj. Augus ta—ami Likewise at the Druggist Stores of Dr. Joseph Kirkland and Willian Bengoine in Charleston, S.
