AN INVALUABLE MEDICINE.
SINICO'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS
supply a desideratum which has long been sought. The
torments of Gout and Rheumatism are unfortunately so well
known as to have become proverbial, and the unhappy suf-
ferers from those complaints will appreciate, with a gratitud
which such martyrs alone can feel, the astonishing effect of
this remedy. It is equally serviceable in Rheumatism, Fever,
Lumbago, Cramp, &c., and the testimonials as to its efficacy
are numerous and conclusive.

These Pills are sold by all Medicine Vendors in town and
country, in boxes at Is. lid. and 2s. 9d. each. Purchasers
should be especially careful to ask for " Simco's Gout and
Rheumatic Pills," and not be persuaded to buy any others.

STARCH.—BROWN and POLSON beg to in-
vite the attention of laundresses and the public to their
PATENT POWDER STARCH, unequalled for strength,
colour, and purity. It gives a fine and glossy finish, does not
stick to the iron, and requires no boiling. The annexed certi-
ficate of that eminent chemist, Dr. Fyfe, will prove that it is
free of potatoe, and contains no deleterious ingredient.
" I hereby certify that I have submitted to chemical investi-
gation the starch manufactured by Messrs. Brown and Poison,
of Paisley, and that I have found it to be a pure article, conse-
quently free from any ingredient that would act injuriously
even on the finest fabric. From trials conducted with it under
my own superintendence, I have found that in starching it
goes farther than the best kinds of patent starch, that it gives
an equally fine finish, and that articles starched with it are not
.iable to lose their stiffness. Having witnessed the process of
manufacturing the starch in all its stages, I am satisfied that
potatoe flour is not used in its manufacture.

" July 25, 1842."
Sold by all respectable oilmen and grocers, &c., in packages
of *lb., alb., Ilb., and 41b.
Also, their IMPROVED ARROW-ROOT, warranted free
of Potato, proven by the most competent judges to be equal in
all respects to the finest West Indian (as the annexed certifi-
cate from the celebrated Dr. Fyfe will show), consequently as
well adapted as a lightsome and nutritious article of food for In-
valids and Infants • and makes excellent Blanc Mange without
any admixture of Isinglass or Gelatine.
Sold by Chemists, Italian Warehousemen, and Grocers, in
half-pound and one pound packages, at 9d. per pound.
" Edinburgh, June 25,1842,
Brown and Poison's Improved Arrow Root, the manufacture
of which I have inspected, is prepared without any admixture of
Potato-flour. It possesses all the qualities of West Indian Ar-
row Root, and therefore may be used as an equally wholesome
and nutritious article of food.

SIGHT RESTORED!—NERVOUS HEAD-ACHE

AND DEAFNESS CURED!
By the most simple, delightful, arid fragrant Compound!
Its mode of application is fraught with pleasure ; many thou-
sand cures have been accomplished by its use, at a trifling ex-
pense, yet certain in its operation. If testimonies be necessary
toi nduce the sufferer to make trial, Kings, Lords, and Corn-
mcns have used it. The Lords of the Treasury have sanctioned
its use. Their late Majesties, the Duchess of Kent, the most
eminent Oculists, Medical Practitioners—with that gigantic
balance, the Press—have eulogised Grimstone's celebrated
Herbaceous Compound, known as " Grimstone's Eye Snuff,"
for its efficacy in removing all diseases incident to the Eyes and
Head. G. J. Guthrie, Esq., F.R. S. See J. B. Lachfleld,
Esq.'s Letter, Whitebait Dr. Thomas. Dr. Andrews calls
it a national blessing—see his Reports touching its utility. The
late Mr. Abernethy, with many others, recommend Grim-
stone's Eye Snuff, and call it " Man's best Friend," and the
Student's Vade Mecum."—See the many thousand Letters
of Testimonies, of undoubted medical authority, with others of

This extraordinary cure is attested by Mr. James Wilcockson
Foreign Snuff and Cigar Merchant, Nottingham.
To Mr. W. Grimstone, 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, London.
Sir,--I feel great pleasure in sending you the particulars of
my case, and the miraculous cure performed on myself, by
using your truly valuable Eye-Snuff. Sir, I am now in my
93d year, and a native of Holland, have been in this country
26 years. Whether from change of climate, or my advanced age,
I cannot sahbut for six years I have been deprived of sight,
therefore unable to follow my business. I do most sincerely
believe I should have remained in darkness and pain but for
the kind recommendation of a friend to use your invention. I
purchased a 23. 4d. canister of your agent, andM . Wilcockson, to-
bacconist, who knows the above to be facts, will bear wit-
ness to my extraordinary recovery of that most inestimable
blessing of our life—" Perfect Sight"—l declare has proceeded
from the use of your Eye Snuff. For the sake of those suffer-
ing, you may make what use you please of this letter, Mr. Wil-
cockson and many others will vouch for its truth. I refer
the
sufferers to this gentleman, being your Agent, and ,so ell
known in Nottingham.
I am, Sir, your obliged servant,

P. S.—Sir,—l should not do you justice without stating my
telief was almost instantaneous. My eyes }ecame clear and
freed from humour, and by persevering in its use very fre-
quently I am enabled to read small print without the aid of
Glasses, and continue to enjoy God's greatest blessing—Sight !
free from pain. I have reason to be grateful, and do recom-
mend your Eye Snuff to all I know.
