LAWRENCE, OSTROM & COMPANY’S TEN YEARS OLD FAMOUS “ Belle of f|rtfe Bourbon!” FOR MEDICINAL AND FAMILY USE. ABSOLUTELY FUSEL OIL! GREAT ° APPETIZER! HIGHLY ENDORSED AND RECOMMENDED. WHY BELLE OF BOURBON IS PURE. There are volatile properties naturally existing in the grain, which accompany the lie; inr in its changes and give their Characteristic flavor to the resultant spirit. These can scarcely be considered as impurities; but there are other properties obtained during the process of fermentation which serve, seriously, to contaminate the product Among these are FUSEL, OIL, or drain Oil (amylic alcohol), which is offensive both to smell and taste, and from which, aside from the poison they contain, it i very desirable that tlie spirit should be freed as far as possible This is accomplished in the manufacture of the lie!le of Bourbon, in the production Df which only the fliuty portion of the grain is used, thus freeing it from fusel oil before it is distilled; and it is improv ed further i>y the RIPE AGE OF BELLE OF BOURBON, 'vbieh it is allowed to attain before being placed on the market, none of this whisky being placed on the market until it is at hast TEN YEA KB OLD. In substantiation of this the certificate i the eminent chemist, Dr. J. P. Barman is here given. EMINENT PHYSICIANS Throughout the world ur.hesitatiiftly contend that alcoholic lipunr have held, and always will hold their place at the head of the of standard remedies, without the use of which success iu their practice would be limited. WHAT THE DOCTORS HAVE TO SAY. j. The late DR COWLING, who was considered the highest authority in his time, and who was fully aware of the purity of the tie of Bourbon, wrote, in the Mrdica/ jXcirx, of which he was editor, in the discussion of the so-called temperance question: “Alcohol will always be administered to the sick. Its ABUSE, and not its USE, may be abandoned/’ This will certify that I have examined the sample of “Bello of Bourbon Whisky,” received from LAWRENCE, OSTROM & CO., and have found the same to be perfectly free from Fusel Oil nd a il other deleterious substances and strictly puro. I cheerfully recommend the same for Family and Medicinal purposes. J. P. BARNUM, M. D., Analytical Chemist, Louisville, Ky. For sale by Druggists, Wine Merchants and Grocers everywhere.

SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS': SUNDAY. APRIL 17, 1887—TWELVE PAGES. HE RECOMMENDS BELLE OF BOURBON. The pick are going to have alcohol in some shape, and a matter of the first importance is that the liquors administered be ABSOLUTELY PUKE, “GENUINE AND GOOD.” “The physicians,” he says, “order good whisky,” (meaning Belle of Bourbon, of course) “and leave it to attendants to And it as they ‘may. Homo possess tiie faculty or the knowledge necessary to get genuine liquors, but a vast majority, even among the intelligent, do not.” BELLE OF BOURBON Whisky was introduced Into the Pharmacopoeia as a substitute for brandy and is preferable to brandy as a medical agent, since it can always be obtained of good quality. It is also used as au antiseptic, DRESSING FOR WOUNDS, etc. BELLE OF BOURBON IN FEVERS. The use of Belle* of Bourbon Whisky has revolutionized the treatment of fever, and thousands of lives have been saved. Formerly TYPHOID FEVER was regarded as almost incurable; recovery was the exception, and death the rule. Now, owing to the use of whisky, death resulting from typhoid fever is the exception—recovery the rule. Bo it is SURGICAL FEVERS which are now readily controlled by stimulants! Dr. Lewis Sayre, eminent orthoiioeaic surgeon, regards pure Kentucky whisky as the BEST OF ALL MEDICAL AGENTS, in regulating aud controlling the pulse in fevers resulting from injuries or surgical operations. A CURE FOR CONSUMPTION. The venerable DR. MoCREADY , the distinguished American lecturer, sometimes called the Father of American Therapeutics, used to give equal parts of sweet milk and whisky us a prescription for consumption, as the most eftlcient aud only satisfactory remedy for thut disease; even after cavities have been formed in the lungs, and his treatment was most successful, resulting in many’almost miraculous cures. 9
