STARCIL—BROWN and POLSON beg to
bin-
cite the attention of laundresses and the public to their
'AIENT POWDER STARCH, unequalled for strength,
colour, and uurity. It gives a tine and glossy finish, does not
'tick to the iron, and requires no boding. The annexed certi-
ficate of that eminent chemist, Dr. Fyfe, will prove that it is
'roe of potatue, and contain no deleterious ingredient.
" i hereby certify that I have submitted to chemical invesii-
-lafion the starch manufactured by Messrs. Brown and Poison,
, Paisley. and that I have found it to be a pure article, conse-
qllently free front ahy ingredient.tbat would act injuriously
"eu on the finest fabrte. Front trials contit...ed w,th it under
own -superintendence, I have found that in starching it
goes farther than the best kinds of patent starch, that it gives
lit.tl equally fine fiis, and that arcles starched with it are not
table to lo -e their h
-tiffness. Havtiing witnessed the proces sof
Inanufaeturing the starch in all i r states, I am satisfi-.d that
