Stores Lime-street.
Offices 54, Duke-street.

The Proprietors beg most respectfully to call the attention
et the trade, noblemen. clergy, Lc., and the public In general,
to their entensive stock of Choice Wines, of rare vintages.
BURROWS and Co. are not disposed to comment upon the
purity of their wines, which is daily most laudably acknow-
ledged by the public and eminent medical men of all coun-
tries, as the increasing patronage of the highest families in
the land is a auflicient guarantee.
They beg. to call particular attention to their pure Tonic
Wines, as being so valuable to Invalids and persons of weak
stomachs.
A sample ease, containing three full-sized wine bottles,
will be forwarded to any address on receipt of Y. 0.0. for Os.
ed., er a dozen for 245.
It is a well-known fact that impure and adulterated wines
are the greatest fees to health, producing acidity in the
stomach, and debilitating the digestive organs, while pure
wines will accelerate the digestive powers, invigorating,
strengthening, and bracing the nervous system.
Their Tonic Wine is admitted to be most es,ential to in-
valids, both old and young, and should never be absent from
the !Israel; of the weak and sickly. Its properties are duly
aoknewledged and appreciated by the leading men of the
faculty, both at home and abroad.
To prevent imposition each bottle is sealed with the name
of the firm.
