the finest quality, may be had in Pots, at Is. 6d., 2s. 6d., and

The imposition practised on the Public by persons vending
a composition called "Bear's Grease," without a particle of
the genuine fat therein, having brought this inestimable arti-
cle into disrepute, has induced M. K. to have the Animals
fed and slaughtered on the Premises. In a few days another
fine young Bear (which may now be seen alive) will be
slaughtered, and the genuine Grease, either prepared or as
cut from the animal, may be had at per ounce.
