PERFECTION in LAMP OIL.—A PATENT.
CLARK'S PATENT SPERM OIL, only ss. per imperial
gallon, is bright as crystal in the coldest weather, and lasts longer
than real Sperm. It burns in all descriptions of Argand Lamps. The
great expense of Sperm Oil, and the trouble of common oils, can now
be dispensed with at plesoure. It is admirably suited for Solar
Lamps, as they will not want cleaning for years, and being so pure,
four gallons go as far as five gallons of any common oils ; so, in
reality, Clark's Patent Sperm Oil is cheapest. Families laying in
their stock of Spermaceti or Wax Candles, Soaps, &c. &c., will
positively save 30 per cent. In their outlay. This is no fiction, and
this system of equitable charges the public will support.
Samples sent in London, and list of prices, with description of the
patent article, sent on application to all parts of the world.

THE UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER.
30 to 80 per Cent. gaved !
To be had at the Patentees, 60, St. Martin's-lane, Charing-cross.
The Patentees beg to call public attention to the following facts,
'The advantages resulting from the invention are various and
striking. Independently of a saving of 30 to 80 per cent„ the com-
bustion is perfect, and the brilliancy produced superior to any light
hitherto discovered. It emits neither smell nor smoke, and burns
steadily for any period ; and such is its purity, that it neither affects
or soils the most delicate colour or the finest fabric. Objections have
made to the introduction of gas in dwellin:-houses, to the expense of
fittings, to its destruction of furniture, draperies, gold moulding, &c. ;
these ar e entirely obviated by the "PATENT UNIVERSAL GAS
se
AS the cost of laying on gas is muck lower than is com-
monly SUpposed, it is adapted for private dwellings, as well as for
club-houses, hotels, manufactories, and public buildings. One of the
small burners is amply sufficient to light a good-sized room, at a sum
Immeasurably lower than spirit, oil, or candle, with the avoidance of
waste or trouble.
The merits of the " Burner," its brilliancy and economy surpassing
every other known light, are shown by the annexed authentic
opinions of the qualities of the UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER.

" Sta,--I feel pleasure iu being able to bear my strong and unso-

near relative of mine, has used them—very rarely having recourse
to other medicines for a long period of yews ; she has recommended
them extensively, and in one installed n which she induced a person
to adoptthern, and supplied the first box herself, they have proved or
