Bainbiudge, G-a., Feb. 20th, 1869.
Many years ago, the writer of theso lines and an invalid physician, while visiting the
Island of St. Croix for their health, experienced and witnessed many surprising and
beneficial effects of the Bum there produced upon many of the invalids who were (hike
ourselves) seeking health; and, upon inquiry and investigation, obtained a full history
of its medicinal virtues. Be was delighted and surprised, and after his own recovery,
which soon occurred, determines, if possible, to procure the sole right to manufacture
and sell it la the United States.
The result of his labors was a glorious success for himself and suffering humanity,
far the celebrated PLANTATION BITTERS was thus made known to the world. PLAN
TATION BITTERS being an article of real merit, founded'upon new principles,, and
relying wholly upon the vegetable world for its medicinal effects, worked a rapid revolts
tion in the history of medicine, and became as a household word all over the civilized
world. The cabalistic S. T.—1860—2. was a talisman of health, and the demand for
. the PLANTATION BITTERS soon far exceeded the abilities of the proprietors to supply. ’
Notwithstanding the large importation of St. Croix Rum, made expressly for the com
pounding of these Bitters, the quantity was inadequate. It therefore became necessary
that arrangements upon an extensive scale abroad should at once be made, and an agent
was dispatched to St. Thomas for that purpose. He was fortunate in securing and
leasing several plantations on some of the largest and most productive estates on t fo&
island. Houses, stills and presses were erected as if by magic, which utterly “ aston
ished the natives.” The services of experienced men and natives of the island were pro
cured, and very soon the proprietors of the PLANTATION BITTERSr were in a position
to supply their laboratory with all the perfectly pure St. Croix Rum needed in manufac
turing 1 tha GREAT DYSPEPTIC TONIC AND XN7IGORATOR. The above cut represent*
the natives crushing the sugar-cane and otherwise preparing it for the stills and presses.
As an antidote to Fever and Ague, Intermittent and Malarious Fevers, Dyspepsia, and
other kindred diseases, the use of the PLANTATION BITTERS is unsurpassed in thar
Mstory of the world. Over five million bottlr - are disposed of annually. They are
adapted to old and young, male and female. They are agreeable in taste, and always
produce an immediate beneficial result. '
