IMPORTANT TO ALL THOSE WHO EXPECT TO DE•'
RIVE BENEFIT FROM DRINKING SODA WATER.—Schweppe's
Soda Water is so universally known and appreciated, not only
throughout the United Kingdom, but throughout the civilised
world, that any enconium on its merits might appear super-
fluous; but as since its original introduction, upwards of half
a century since, many imitators have started up, with more or
less claims to public patronage, J. S. and Co. take the liberty
of reminding their friends and the public that the above Cele-
brated Water continues to be manufactured on the largest
scale and upon the most scientific principles at their chief es-
tablishment, 51, Bemers-street, London; and also at their
three branch Manufactories in Liverpool, Bristol, and Derby ;
and that consumers may be supplied with the genuine article at
most of the respectable Chemists, Confectioners, and Italian
Warehouses in every province of the United Kingdom. The
just reputation of their manufacture, and the consequent de-
mand for it, have tempted unprincipled persons (many of them
of apparent respectability) to practice a deception, against
which Schweppe and Co. are anxious to caution the public.
The deception referred to is that of passing off a spurious
article for " Schweppe's," by selling it in Schweppe's marked
bottles. The temptation to this is, the cheapness of the infe-
rior water, although in most cases the consumer is charged the
same. By this artifice a common water is surreptitiously
palmed on the public for the genuine—the reputation of the
later is prejudiced by the substitution of a bad article—and a
certain proportion of the public patronage diverted from its
legititz ate channel. To obviate these several evils, Schweppe
and Co. have adopted the plan of placing a Red Label over
the cork of each bottle, representing the Royal Appointment
in the centre, and the name of their firm on each side, with-
out which none is genuine. Schweppe and Co. refer with
pride to the fact that they constantly supply the Royal Palaces
of London and Windsor, as well as the principal Nobility in the
three kingdoms ; nor is the demand for their Soda Water less
constant on the continent and in other parts of the world.
Merchants and Shippers in, general connected with the Eat
and West Indies and our numerous Colonies are continually
transmitting orders received from their respective agents and
correspondents, and highly gratifying is the testimony
Schweppe and Co. are in the habit of receiving from gentle-
men returned from abroad, of the luxury afforded them by their
Soda Water when met with in tropical dictates, and of the
high condition in which it is generally found. The Water
ordered for foreign countries is manufactured with an express
reference to its destination, and it is well known that no other
can equally well endure the variations of climate. Schweppe's
Lemonade is an elegant preparation of mere recent intro-
duction, but from its refreshing and wholesome properties is
rapidly get ting into extensive reputation. It is an effervescing
draught of most agreeable flavour, and made of the best mate-
rials, without regard to cost. Physicians and medical men
constantly recommend it in cases of fever, &c., nor is it less de-
sirable as an article of luxury. Every genuine bottle will
have a yellow lable on its side, with the name and address of
the firm. Schweppe and Co. are the largest importers of the
German Seltzer Water, which they receive direct from the
springs, in quarts and pints, and which they offer to the public
in the original packages. N.B.—Export orders for all climates
axecuted on the shortest notice.

Teitimonial from John Sawyer, Esq., of Haywood
Lodge, Maidenhead, Perks, to Messrs. S. and B. Solomons, 39,
Albemarle_ street, Piccadilly, opposite the York Hotel, and 76,
King William-street, City.—" Gentlemen,—Having been deaf for
some time, which I found increasing, and which very much incon-
venienced both myself and friends, and observing your announce-
ment In the daily papers, I was induced in the month of November-
-1839, to make trial of your Invisible Voice Conductor, Sound Mag,
niters, and although at my advanced age—at that time past any
77th year—l had no hope of obtaining any relief, but immediately
I applied them according to your directions, and to the surprising
astonishment of many of my friends around me, I could hear with
them the general conversation, and I am happy to inform you that
by the constant use of (twin both my ears and my hearing have be.
come so much improved that I can now hear acutely without their aid,
and in consequence of tha valuable benefit which 1 have derived, has
caused me to make application to you for Spectacles, which I find
equally good, and afford me all the comfort and relief by day and
candlelight that I could desire. I feel much pleasure in banding
you this testimonial for the great advantage I have derived, and shall
be most happy to make this statement to any inquiry that may
be made. I am, Gentlemen, your most obedient servant, J. Sawyer
June 22, 1842."—Observe the Messrs. Solomons have no con.
flexion with persons of the same name in Ireland and Scotland,
they do not employ any travellers nor agents ; the genuine arti-
cles are only to be had in London, at their establishments, 39, Albe-
marle-street, Piccadilly, opposite the Yolk Hotel, and 76, King
William-street, City.
YOUTHFUL INTREPIDITY.—It will be remembered
that in the columns of this Journal some days since was re-
corded the extraordinary instance of intrepidity and persever-
ance of a little boy named Joseph Lague, residing with his
widowed mother in King's-road, Camden-town, who after
diving three times succeeded in saving another boy, 15 years
of age, named Richard Leggatt, from drowning in the Re-
gent's-canal. The publication of the paragraph in question
did not only call the attention of the Royal Humane
Society to the case, who awarded at their meeting en
Tuesday the silver medal and the sum of RV. to the poor
boy, but also that of the public generally. For some days
past a Committee, composed of the licensed victuallers and
most respectable tradesmen of the parish of St. Pancras, has
been organizing for the purpose of raising a fund to pace
the poor little fellow Lague, in one of the public schools, and
then to apprentice him to some good trade. This case of true
heroism, scarcely credible in one so young, and equalled only
by the spirited and noble-minded conduct of Grace Darling,
has also in no small degree attracted the attention of the aris-
tocracy, many of whom have liberally contributed to the ne-
cessities of the poor boy and his distressed mother. Amongst.
them may be mentioned the following:--A few days since the
servant of a Noble Earl waited upon the boy's mother, and pre-
sented her with the sum of 5/., with a promise from his Lord-
ship that she should receive further assistance. The Countess
of L sent a sovereign. A sovereign was also received in
a note from Major-General Lvgon, M.P., and other sums have
also been received and duly acknowledged by the mother, who is
dependent entirely on washing for the support of herself and
seven orphans.
The Hungarian ladies are passionately fond of
dancing. A lady told Mr. Paget, that, in her dancing times,
she well remembered that she never said her prayers for her
daily bread," without adding, "sad plenty of partners at the
next ball, I beseech thee:"
