| TEXT | No historical review of the business interests of New York would be complete without a suitable reference to Dr. Irish's famous Old Botanic Depot and Pharmacy, a veritable landmark in the history of the drug trade of the metropolis. The business was established no less than fifty-two years ago by the late Dr. Elwood Irish. The Doctor was a very active and enterprising business man, and introduced a degree of energy into the carrying on of his establishment that attracted public attention and a correspondingly large measure of patronage. About thirty-seven years ago he compounded his famous beverage known as Dr. Irish's Ottawa Beer, and which has thoroughly demonstrated itself through the long intervening period as one of the best effervescing, cooling, and agreeable non-intoxicating and healthful beverages ever devised. In 1879 Mr. A. Wynkoop became the proprietor of Dr. Irish's Pharmacy, and has permanently retained the old-time name and style. The establishment is most centrally and eligibly located at the beginning of Third Avenue, directly opposite the Cooper Institute. It is a fine store, handsomely fitted up, and contains a complete assortment of botanic extracts, drugs, chemkals, proprietary remedies of value, perfumery, toilet articles, mineral waters, etc., etc. The famous receipt for the Ottawa Beer still remains the property of this pharmacy, and is one of the features of the business. It is known all over the world, and no greater credit to old Dr. Irish could accrue than having his name linked with that of thi;-delicious and healthful beverage. Dr. Wynkoop's establishment is nou' tlie oldest botanic store in the counttry;, and still does, as it always has done in the past, a very large and permanent trade. Dr. Wyukoop is a native of Philadelphia, an accomplished pharmaceutical graduate, and brings both ample skill and long practical experience to bear in the discharge of his professional duties. He is a popular member of business circles, honorable in his dealings with all men, and well worthy of the continuous measure of success that attends the pharmacy of old Dr. Irish. |
