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 its merits might appear super-
fluaus ; but as since its original introduction, upwards of half
41 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 scientifl rinciples at their chief es-
tablishment, 51, Berners-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
}wet reputation of their manufacture, and the consequent de-
mand for it, have tempted unprincipled persons (many of them
of apparent tespeetability) to prareice a deception, against
Schweppe and. Co. are anxious t 5 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 mast cases the consumer is charged the
same. By this artifice a common water is surreptitiously
laalmed on the publie for the genuine—the reputation of the
tter is prejudiced by the substitution of a bad article—and a
certain proportion of the public patronage diverted from its
legitimate 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
]ride to the fact that they constantly supply the Royal Palaces
of London and Windsor, es well as the principal Nobility in the
three kingdoms ; nor is the demand for their Soda Water less
constant on the continent and io other parts of the world.
Mei chants and Shippers in general connected with the Fait
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.
Bier: netu,oed from ahroa,i, of the iexury affeedeetliein by'their
s.oda Water when met with in tropical climates, and of the
'high condition in which it is generally found. The Water
metered 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 more recent intro-
duction, but from its refreshing and wholesome properties is
rapidly getting into extensive reputation. It is an effervescing
draught of most agreeable favour, 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-
grerable 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
,executed on the shortest notice.
A crow of a beautifully bright yellow colour, si-
milar to that of a canary, has for some time been ob-
served amongst a dock frequenting the plantations, &c.,
near Burdale, the residence of Mr. Adam, between Drif_
feld and Malton.—Leeds
