OF CLARET
AS A HEALTH GIVING DAILY BEVERAGE HAS OFTEN BEEN INSISTED UPON BY THE MEDICAL PROFESSION.
R. KING CHAMBERS, the well-known authority on diet, has pronounced the
rerdict that
DR
"AS A REGULAT BEVERAGE FOR HEALTHY PERSONS THERE IS NO WINE ON THE ENGLIX MAREST EQUAL TO. CTARET.”
Therefore every lover of Claret should see that they got the right wine and not a wine that is subjected to a good deal of unscrupulous faking, and imposed upon consumers aa genuine. We confidently recommend to our Customers our SUPERIOR Sг. JULIEN ** - bottled and guaranteed by Messrs. BOURNE FRERES, one of the most reliable firms in Bordeaux dealing in Red Winek, to be the genuine produce of the Grape. This Wine, for its pries, will compare most favourably with locally bottled low grade wine in body, quality and flavour.
