THE PURE VESTA SPIRIT, FOR THE VESTA, PARAGON, AND OTHER LAMPS ; MANUFACTURED BY JOHN TALL AND CO.. 6, NORTH WALLS, HULL. VERY great improvements having been effected in this Rectified Spirit, it can with confidence be recom mended as possessing qualities decidedly superior to any manufactured. It combines the advantages of cleanliness and economy, with perfect freedom from smoke or smell ; and, whilst it imparts a most brilliant light, one lamp being equal to at least twelve wax candles, the wick does not require to be cut more than once a week. The following statement of the analysis of Dr. Ure affords a complete verification of its excellent properties : Report of an experimental examination of the Vesta Lamp Spirits, as Manufactured by Messrs. John Tall and Cs., of Hull ; by ANDREW URE, M.D., Professor of Chemistry. " London, 13, Charlotte-street, Bedford-square, 19th September, 1844. " These Spirits are the lightest and purest which I have ever met with in commerce ; having a specific gravity of only 0.865 at 62' Fahr., whereas the Spirits of the London shops have a specific gravity of .11.874 or more ; that of water being 1000. " The comparative lightness of the Spirits indicate their fine quality. Messrs. Tal:'s Spirits when distilled have no residuum, whereas the Spirits generally on Sale leave a quantity of Rosin.' In consequence of the freedom of Messrs. Tall's Spirits from this and other impurities I have lighted my drawing-rooms with their flame during several hours for five evenings successively, without hav ing the wick of the lamp trimmed, and without its occa sioning the slightest nuisance. _ _ " ANDREW URE." The three principal Depots for Messrs. JOHN TALL and COMPANY'S VESTA. SPIRIT are 6, North Walls, Hull ; 140, Suffolk-street, Birmingham ; 103, Hatton-garden, Holborn, London. J. T. and Co. having observed that other Houses are using Betts' Patent Capsule, beg to state they have made arrangements with Mr. Betts for a Capsule bearing their Address, (Jour.; TALL and Co., HULL,) which will be applied to every separate Package, to insure the genuine ness of their Improved Vesta Spirit. &alto bp 'Ration.
