[AnvzartsEmExT.l—The misery, the disappointment, the
interminable expense of ineffectual " pnysic-taking, are now
happily superseded by the use of Messrs. Du Barry's Iteva-
lenta Arabica Food, which, by a pleasing and natural action
on the system, removes chronic and exhausting disease, and
replaces languor and pain)! r. gour and health. Those.whom
it has restored to the enjoyment of life include persons be-
longing to all social grades and professions, and it is a proof
that the emotion of gratitude is more general than cynics
imagine, when we find upwards of 50 thousand of the indivi-
duals thus relieved publicly expressing their sense of the l'ene-
fits they have derived. The peer and the clergyman, and the
physician, the naval and military officer, the merchant, trades-
man, and even the poor mechanic, have joined in this unani-
mous and unparalleled testimonial. Their acknowledgments
partake of the same spirit which characterises the com-
munication of Mr. Evans Pepperell, II 110 commences
hie
letter by saying : —" For many years I have been a martyr
to indigestion, acidity, Learthurn, constipation, and nervous
nest, to such a degree that I was unable to stay alone in my
room, or walk out alone, being constantly filled with unac-
countable fears ; and I have had several fits, remaining uncon-
scious for about half au hour. I had the advice of three emi-
nent physicians, and taken their prescriptions for a long
time, but my niments only increased under their influence.
Your excellent Food produced, I am happy to state, au imm -
diate change for the better, and I am now, after two weeks'
use of it, a wholly different bei,.g, with excellent appetite,
clear tongue, free from acidity and heartburn, regular in my
functions, and getting stronger every day. My nerves are
perfectly tranquil; and I sleep most refreshingly. With gra-
titude to you for so happy a change, I remain, he., he.,
Evans Pnernant.t." Another gentleman, who, like most
others, invites Messrs. Du Barry to refer sufferers
to him, thankfully declares ;—" I have found your Licom
parable Food an infallible preventive of the gout " The
ladies are equally emphatic in their acknowledgments.
Thus, Miss M'Lelland expresses her thanks for the " re-
moval of dyspepsia and constipation. from which she had
suffered for many years. Miss M. considers Mr. Du Barry's
Food a most invaluable article of diet for invalids, being highly
nutritious, strengthening, and restorative, and she will feel
great pleasure i I recommending it to her friends." What in-
valids most require is a certainty that thearticle recommended
to them is capable of affording relief ; that they will not have
again to undergo (as they have so often done) the bitter pro-
cess of trial and disappointment. This certainty they now pos-
sess, and it is no extravagance to express our confidence that
it will prove the harbinger of glad tidings to millions.

CONSUMPTION OP SMOKE AND ITS ECONOMY FOR Day-
pusposgs.—We witnessed A. few days since a pro-
cess patented by Mr. Heeds, of Epsom, and which is
likely to prove of great service to' p,rcelain works, pot-
teries, and other establishments where plastic substances
require gradual, equable, and rapid drying. Mr. Rands
has applied it to his own business—th.s making of bricks
—with decided success. He has a common kiln, in
which there are three fire holes. The smoke from the
kiln is carried downwards and under ground by a flue
into the drying house
.of 55,500 cubic, feet area, and
within this flue rises again in the form of a double wall
covered at the top, and traVerses the whole of the room,
wilful it again leaves it and is connectej, with the back
of the kilni and passing through the fire every vestige
of smoke is consumed. By this simple arrangement the
drying room was rapidly raised to about 98 degrees,
although there were 150,000 moist bricks therein, and
the temperature VMS at freezing point outside. Mr.
Sands informed us that the temperature within the
drying room seldom varies beyond an degree or so, and
an experiment he
tion with the smoke chamber, when a rapid suction
performed by openg a commun
draught was created without the slightest portion ei
smoke escaping, went far to convince us that a remedy
has been found for the nuisance occasioned by the efflu
via arising from soap factories, bone boilers, chemical
works, and a host of other no
xioas trades, which n
et
at present so loudly complained of. It will be manifest
to scientific men, that if the process will act with a com-
mon kiln, all other descriptions of furnaces may bt
adapted with little or no modificiation. Mr.' Hands'
object is very properly to grant lice_ noes to_ those who
may 'personally convince themselves of its efficient gm.
