Bottle of Bromidia sedative

Bottle of "Bromidia" sedative elixir (Chloral hydrate, potassium bromide, ext. Hyoscycamus), by Battle and Co., USA; manufactured in the UK by Roberts and Co. Bromidia was sold in France as early as the late 1880s, and Roberts and Co. closed around 1930, so this presumably dates between 1890 and 1930.
