CERTIFICATE.

" In a series of experiments made upon Clark, Mc Niell, and Co.'s
Patent Universal Gas Burner, its superiority was satisfactorily esta•
bllshed in economy and the quality of the 11:tht. Tested against
argand burn,rs, Nos, 4 (12 holes), and 6 (15 holes), it afforded a
saving of at least 25 per cent., and against three fish-tall burners,
No. 4, 40 per cent. The colour and brilliancy of the flame is supe-
rior to any other burner."

technic Institution, and may be had and seen from 11 till 4, at the

NOTICES Of THE PRESS.

From the Mark-lane Express.—" The work now before us will be
appreciated by the professional man who is aware of the importance
of distinguishing between irritative' and inflammatory' action in
determining the course of treatment of disease. The author is of
opinion that the symptoms of the former are frequently mistaken for
the latter, sometimes even by experienced practitioners. Mr.
Franks does not content himself with asserting the fact, but pro-
ceeds to show, by argument and demonstration, which appears to us
conclusive, that the position he assumes is correct. Having carefully
perused Mr. Franks's book, we can state with confidence, that it
ought to be read by every man, inasmuch as the information it con-
tains may not only afford relief to the mind upon the appearance of
symptoms which are not really indicative of the disease supposed,
but may be the means of guarding the patient against the practices
of the unskilful and the empiric."
From Bell's Life in London.—" We recommend this little treatise
to those who, suffering under deserved penalties, wish to pay them
off as speedily and sAfely as possible, without having recourse to the
ruinous banks founded by manslaughtering quacks."
From the London Mercantile Journal.—" Mr. Franks is evidently
an original thinker, and follows not the path of his predecessors in
treating the subject upon which he has written. There is a vast
amount of truth in his book. It is ignorance which often causes un-
happiness in the married state, and such a work as this may he the
means of displacing many of those serious heart-burnings and Jett-
louiles which sever the peace of families."
