the great loss of Gas Companies and serious inconvenience to
Consumers) are prevented by using THOMAS EDGE'S IM-

Meters are approved of by all the London Gas Companies, and
will entirely supersede those made in the common way with

world at the under-mentioned charges, warranted equal in
eina
every respect, as regards quality, style, and fashion, to any
uating from the most fashiable houses at he Westnd,
Where those who pay prompt are obliged to suffer for persons
who take unlimited credit. -The Proprietor having six very
extensive establishments, advantageously situated in theprincipal
manufacturing towns in the kingdom, and having capital at corn-
Mimi, he is enabled to take every advantage of the fluctuations
of the markets, independently of which he is a manufacturer of a
great part of his stock. His enormous consumption enables him
to buy immense quantities of goods of very first-rate quality for
cash, considerably below their real value; and as he pursues but
one system in selling, charging a uniform per tentage, the lowest
ever offered to the public : the result is that those who honour
him with their confidence and commands will receive the full
benefit of his capital and experience. An immense quantity of
goods always on hand, suitable for immediate use, made in first-
rate style and fashion, and at really astonishing prices. The
Proprietor particularly invites attention to his immense stock
of waistcoats, the newest, and richest designs are always kept
on hand, ready made, splendidly cut, and manufactured in the
best possible manner: and he can say, without exception,
that he is the largest maker in the kingdom, 1,000 Waistcoats
being manufactured daily for his various Establishments.
