"Liverpool, May 24, 1841

" We, the undersigned, having, this day, witnessed the
testing of one of Milners' Patent Fire-proof Boxes, by its
having been placed in a large fire, consisting of wood and up-
wards of six hundred weight of coal, for the space of two
hours and twenty minutes, do hereby express our conviction,
that the fire-proof boxes manufactured by them are a perfect
security in all cases of ordinary fire. The box was filled with
commercial and other books, papers, parchments, and deeds,
(one of which, of the 16th Henry VIII., had five large thick
seals appended to it,) and within an inch of the cover, seve-
ral Bank of England notes; and, previously to being closed,
was submitted to the examination of J. S. Leigh, Esq., R.
Frodsham, Esq., L. Graham, Esq., and others present. The
whole contents in the box being taken out of the fire and
opened in our presence, were found to be in a perfect state
of preservation, the seals attached to the deed above-men-
tioned not being in the slightest degree injured.

" This certifitate is written on the deed of 16th Henry
VIII., above•mentioned, which was submitted to the test.

PURE WATER.
_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 animalculae,
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-
cal 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 per-
vaded the metropolis, not a public establi-hment 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 :

The Patentee of Robins's Royal Filters having discovered

further notice, for the full penalties, agreeable to the late act of
