MEDICATED, &c. BATHS

TllE great utility of Medicated Baths are becoming more
generally known, from the relief experienced by those
who have tried their efficacy.
Making use of the Baths under the direction of Gentlemen
of the Medical Profession, and at the same time king the
Medicine prescribed by the Medical Attendant, n doubt but
that more good can be effected conjointly than au be done
by Baths alone, or Medicine alone.
An opinion has been entertained that ape is more liable
to take cold after the use of a Medicated B . This is a mis-
taken conclusion, nay, so far from this being the fact, if a
person is labouring under indisposition from the effects of a
cold, the use of the Baths, in a short time, will remove the
complaint, and cause a general glow and warmth to ensue.
The use of the Baths are found to be beneficial in Fevers,
Gout, Rheumatism, Tic Douloureux, Influenza, Lumbago,
Sciatica, Erysipelas, Scrofula, Consumption, Cancer, Dis-
eases of the Skin, Diseases of the Liver, Asthma, Headach,
Obstructed Perspiration, Suppression of the Urine, Fatigue
of Body or Mind, Croup, Thrush, Earach, Inflamation of the
Kidneys ,Inflamation of the Spleen ,Inflarnation of the Bladder,

PURE W A T E R.
THE ROYAL FILTERS,
Sole Office, 163, STRAND, LONDON, opposite the New
Church.
TO purify foul Water like that supplied to the
inhabitants of the principal cities and towns in England,
replete with every species of offal and myriads of anitnalculre,
and to convert it forthwith into an enlivening, wholesome, and
chrystalline beverage like the Mountain Spring, is one of the
most difficult problems of science which thousands in every
age and country have attempted in vain, having produced at
best a vapid sickening beverage, till the happy electro chymi-
-0/1
cal invention of ROBINS'S ROYAL LTE RS appeared.
This has justly been characterised b one of the highest
practical authorities, as " THE 014 Y EFFECTUAL AND
WHOLESOME MODE OF FILTRATI . ; " as a proof of the
fidelity of this remark, it will be sufficient to observe, that
during the prevalence of the fatal fever that has lately per-
vaded the metropolis, not a public establit.hrnent or private
residence in which the Royal Filters had been adopted was
visited by the scourge : the advantages of the discovery has
already raised up a host of humble imitators, but it will be
found that all other apparatus are imperfect in action, subject
to constant disarrangement, and in many cases render the
use of the water dangerous to health. It is only necessary to
add, that the Royal Filters are protected by her Majesty's
Letters Patent ; that they have been adopted.iu all the royal
residences, the various branches of the Public Service, her
Majesty's Navy, and the Mansions and Residences of more
than 180,000 Families throughout the Kingdom. To render
the invention of general benefit, it has been proposed to the
Patentee by the most influential members of the College of
Physicians to reduce the prices in order to render them avail-
able to all branches of the Community, and accordingly the
following scale is submitted to public attention :

CAUTION.
The Patentee of Robins's Royal Filters having discovered
that various persons have manufactured and vended certain
machines denominated Filters, professing to clear and purify
water, placing on the same, " By Her Majesty's Letters
Patent.' " Patent Royal Filter," or other words to a simi-
lar effect, hereby announces his intention of suing, without
further notice; for the full penalties, agreeable to the late act of
parliament, against all parties so offending, either as Makers or
Vendors, to which he requests the attention of country Agents,
who may otherwise suffer by vending the piratical imitations
of certain unprincipled and ignorant adventurers ; and the
Patentee earnestly cautions purchasers not to confound the
Royal Filter with any other apparatus, and in order to guard
against all piracies, to remark that the words
ROYAL FILTER, ROBINS, PATENTEE, LONDON.
are placed on each, that they can be obtained of his Agents
' in all Towns throughout the Kingdom, and at the OFFICE,
163, STRAND, LONDON, near SOMERSET HOUSE ;
