turns many thanks to the Gentry and his numerous Friends,
who have hitherto honoured him with their commands, and
begs to assure them that the most assiduous attention shall in-

With its perfect sweetness in use—undergoing, as it does, a
chemical process, by which all that is nauseous in mixedmetals is
entirely extracted—resist' ng all acids, may be cleaned as Silver,

TILE PERFECT SUBSTITUTE for SILVER.
UE with ENGRAVINGS (Gratis),
POSTAGE FREE.--The celebrity of the rich and silvery
appearance and extreme durability of the material made ex-
""ively by ourselves, has induced many attempts to foist
uPan the public the notoriously deleterious German Silver
1414 r the guises of " Albata Plate," " Berlin Silver," &c.
4e-, against which we especially warn them. Aided by an
,liciinent chemist, we have succeeded in purifying our material
so that acids do not affect it ; it is now so well known and
aPpreeiated that it is universally superseding silver in all its
*.g. The genuine metal, which is more durable than silver,
an only be had at our warehouses. It is the same through-
and can be engraved and made in all the various articles
that are in silver, from whicli it can only be told by reference
to the stamp. Fiddle Threaded King's
