THE ONLY WAY DUFFY'S IS SOLD
BEWARE OF FRAUDS!
Duffy's Pure Melt Whiskey
is sold in scaled bottles only??never in flask or bulk. A fac-simile ??
the centrine bottle, full size, is printed here, so that you may easily
recognize it, It is our own patented bottle?round, amber colored,'
Hid with "Duffy's Malt Whiskey Company" blown into the glass.
The trade-mark?the Old Chemist's Head?Is on the label, and
over the cork there is an engraved paper seal. Be certain this seal
S|l is not broken.
Beware of Bogus Goods!
Unse rupi don h dealers, mindful only of profit and
caring nothing for the health of their customers, are j
offering for sale low-grade, impure whiskey, which
they c?ill Duffy's Malt Whiskey.
It is a bogus whiskey and a'fraud, intended, to de?
ceive the people. ?
Of course, when a remedy has been before the
public so long, has been prescribed and used by. th?
best doctors and in all the prominent hospitals, arid
has carried the blessing of health into so many thou?
sands of homes as DUFFY'S PURE-MALT W-HlSr -
KEY has, imitations are bound to arise.,.But they can/
imitate tho bottle and label only?no one can imitate
the contents.
DUFFY'S PURE MALT WHISKEY '??-?".
is a formula worked out fifty years ago by one of the greatest
chemists the world has evir known, nnd while it. has cured million?
of people during the last half century, the secret has no'ver been
discovered. ' j
, Any llrm'tlmt will sell Imitation goods will sell Impure drugs,
Tho llrm that Is dishonest In one thing would not hpsltato to be
dishonest In another. Whenever you sec imitation goods with th*
llrm's name on, hownro of anything and everything put up by,that
firm. You endanger your own life and tho lives of your family ?n'd
friends by dealing with them. _ '? ?
