PURE WATER, FOR HOUSES AND SHIPS.
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 animalculie, and to
convert it forthwith into an enlivening wholesome and chrys-
talline 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-chymical
invention of ROBINS'S ROYAL FILTERS appeared.
This has justly been characterised by one of the highest
practical authorities, as " THE ONLY EFFECTUAL AND
WHOLESOME MODE OF FILTRATION ." 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 yer-
vaded the Metropolis, not a public establishment 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 in 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 similar
effect, hereby announces his intention of suing without fur-
ther 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 con-
found the Royal Filter witli 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, at the Office, 163,
Strand, London, near Somerset House, and at Mr. A. B.
BUXTON'S, 4 and 8, Cleveland-square, Liverpool, where
the Testimonials of all the most eminent authorities in the
world of science and medicine may be obtained gratis.
