I think this bottle is very very old it measures 3 1/2 by 1 inches
 
Before 1894, as shown here:

Strong, Cobb and Co.(Cleveland, Ohio) began in 1870 and was acquired by Bryant Pharmaceutical July 1957; and in May of 1959 was renamed "Strong Cobb Arner, Inc.".
You may wish to research your find through the Arner entity.

Just by the style, I would put it in the late 1880's to early to mid 1890's. Cool little bottle :)
