    CAUTION'. Beware of Counterfeits & Imitations!! It has been truly said that counterfeiters and imitators of a valuable medicine are more dangerous to society than dealers in spurious coin. The latter only rob you of your property, while the former endanger your life. The high reputation gained by Dr. Osgood's India Choi- agogue has given rise to a large number of spurious com- pounds, which are now before the public, christened with the name of Cholagogue. One man bottles up a mixture which he calls Indian Cholagogue — another, American Cholagogue — another, German Cholagogue—another, Bo- tanic Cholagogue — another makes Cholagogue Pills, and so on. These imitations are but imitations in name, to steal a character for the spurious which belongs only to the genuine. You may as well look to the Ccosars and Catos of the present day for the virtues of their illustrious pro- totypes, as expect to find in such miserable compounds the valuable properties of the original Cholagogue. J^TAKB NOTICE.^ THE GENUINE INDIA CHOLAGOGUE 18 PREPARED EXCLUSIVELY BY DR. CHARLES OSGOOD, the inventor and sole proprietor. To protect yourself from imposition, buy of the regular agent, or an honest druggist, examine the outside engraving, and the pamphlet which it encloses. See that the words Osgood's India Cholagogue, JYeiv York, are blown in the glass of the bottle, and above all see that the label of directions has the written signature of Charles Osgood, M. D., and you are safe.
