MILNER'S " HOLDFAST" and FIRE-RESIST-
ING SAFES are the strongest, best, and cheapest safe-
guards in the world against fire, robbery, and fraud; 20,000 of
them Veep the books, deeds, and cash of the practical men of
Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow, Ike., who know their supe
riority to any other others. Five of them have brought their
contents unscathed out of the ruins of large fires in Glasgow
alone this year, wherein scores of other safes have been burnt
out. Twenty-five offices were burnt out in Lincoln's Inn in
Jamiary, in one alone of which the title-deeds of thirty large
landed estates were burnt, which would all have been preserved
in Milner's Safes. From some hundreds of certificates, the
following is selected, as one out of many instances in which
everything was consumed in the buildings excepting what
Alilner's Safe contained :

"Clyde-street, Anderston, Glasgow, May 7, 1849.
" Gentlemen,—At the calamitous fire yesterday morning, by
which our premises, and stock of oil, tallow, &c., were totally
destroyed, our books were preserved in the Milner's Fireproof
Safe, purchased from you. We have great pleasure in thus
bearing testimony to the great efficiency of these Safes.

"CHARLES BOYD and Co.
"This Safe was most severely tested, the brass knob and
brass work about the lock were melted off."
"Glasgow, 10th February, 1849.
" Gentlemen,—The books and papers which we had in your
Fire-resisting Safe, which was subjected to a most intense heat
for several hours at the late fire in Gordon-street, on Thursday
last, were wholly preserved—the property saved being of ex-
treme importance to us. We have, therefore, great pleasure is
communicating this fact, deeming your Safes invaluable as a
protection against fire, and an invention with which the public
cannot be too well acquainted.
"We are, gentlemen, your obedient servants,
" KER, DOERINO, and Co.
Milner and Son, Liverpool."

The outside of the above Safe was completely burnt through
"Triumphant Resistance to Robbers."
_ _

" Gentlemen,—Oir Milner's Safe was attempted to be broken
open last night ; but notwithstanding the great and persevering
violence with which the robbers have worked at the door and
back of the safe both of which are beaten in and cut through
the outer plates in numerous places,) the lock and bolts re-
mained true, and saved the contents. You may send us another

"Manchester. August 13th. 1547.
"Gentlemen,—ln the late Fire in Market-street, which en-
rely gutted the whole_block of buildings of -which my Ware-

house formed part, I have sincere pleasure in informing you
that my books, together with a quantity of valuable papers,
watches, were preserved uninjuredin one of your Fire-
resisting-Safes, which I strongly recommend to the public.

In the numerous accidental Fires and experimental tests
which Milner's Safes have been exposed to—every description
of Safe in use—Fire-proof (so called) or otherwise, have been
burnt out beside them, confirming the recommendation of the
scientific and practical authorities who have tested them? and
the Patentees, during seven years' active working of their pa-
tent, on a rapidly extending scale, have spared no' pains or cost
in effecting improvements, by which they are enabled to pled-
themselves at all times to supply the most complete and sect,
depositories for Books, Documents, and Valuables, including

WOria,llt-ted with their unequalled Fire-resisting Chambers.
Out of upwards of 20,000 of their Safes in use amongst the
Manufacturing and Commercial Houses in Great Britain—the
class best able to appreciate their value—numerous cases of se:-
vere trial in accidental Fires have occurred, from which Thomas
Milner and Son select the following as instances, in which they
are of opinion that no other Safe than their own would have
preserved its contents unburnt :
Fire at Mr. J. B. Blackaller's Ship Chandlery store, Spar-
ling-street, Liverpool; a strong and fierce Fire; Safe most
severely burnt outside.

Fire at Messrs. J. and W. Walkers', the extensive builders,
Birkenhead; buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt Ia
-them, including the contents of a large Iron Safe and Drawers,
standing beside Milner's ; the contents of Milners' uninjured,
and in use now.

Fire at Messrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park-lane; a ♦ery strong
:Fire; again the contents of llilner's Safe the only thin; saved
on the premises. _

Fire at Plimsaul Brothers, of Plymouth; a very extensive
and destructive Fire; a large Iron S.lfe, covered with Brick-
work, with double iron doors, bilrnt out; Milner's entirely
preserving its contents.
Fire in Queen-street, Glasgow; a great number of safes and
Closets burnt out ; no books saved throughout the buildings

THE POPULAR REMEtY,

p ARR'S LIFE PILLS.
LONGEVITY,
That which establishes on good grounds a hope for prolonged
existence, will ever be welcome to the human mind; far not-
withstanding the trials,. vexations, and difficulties incident to
this life, the love of life increases with our years ; it is one of
the innate principles of our nature, and cannot be explained
away by any of the subtleties of the sophist, nor overcome by
any assumed dignity derived from a false philosophy. We
therefore say to those who are suffering from ill health from
whatever cause; to those who are approaching to what is now
called old age;_ to those who are sinking from premature de-
hP- •,,r yet failed—

remedy, which has nev,.
—.min to cure as the sun is to rise—which from th,
~,,once of its composition can never injure ; to each and all
we again say TRY, and you will soon look upon Old Parr as a
benefactor to the human race, in leaving this invaluable remedy
to the world.
" First—They increase the strength, whilst most other medi-
cines have a weakening effect upon the system. Let any one
take from three to four or six pills every twenty-four hours,
and, instead of having weakened, they will be found to have
revived the animal spirits, and to have imparted a lasting
strength to the body._

deb* operation they go direct to the disease.
e taken six or twelve pills you will experience
on you will become less and less by
'au will persevere in regularly
day, your disease will spec-

dily be entirely removed from the system.
" Thirdly—They are found, after giving them a fair trial for
a few weeks, to possess the most astonishing and invigorating
properties, and they will overcome all obstinate complaints,
and restore sound health; there is a return of good appetite
shortly from the beginning of their use; wilst their mildness
as a purgative is 'a desideratum greatly required by the weak
and delicate, particularly where violent purging is acknow-
ledged to be injurious instead of beneficial."

AGENTS.

THE Committee appointed for carrying out the
above object having now succeeded,in obtaining promises
of Donations to the amount of 14000, venture to appeal to the
Public at large to enable them to complete so necessary and
excellent a work.
They subjoin some extracts from the statement which has
been hitherto circulated privately.
The district conventionally attached to Edge-hill contains
7567 souls, of which about 4000 belong to the middle and la-
bouring classes.
The Church, which contains 900 persons, has only free sit-
tings for 20; others are accommodated in the aisles.
The population has increased at least seven-fold since the
erection of the Church, in 1813. Streets and courts of small
houses now occupy the place of fields and gardens.
It is proposed to build a new Church in that portion of the
Edge-hill district which lies between Crown-street and Mason-
street, to contain 1,000 Sittings, of which 500 will be Free, for
the use of the poor, and 100 let at reduced rates.
The present population is about 3000 persons ; but a consi-
derable portion of the Land is yet unbuilt upon.
The patronage will be vested in the Rector of West Derby,
and the Incumbents of St. Mary's and St. Jude's.
The total expense of Land, Building and Endowment will be
16000.
A Site has been obtained on the east side of Crown-street,
opposite Walnut-street.
The Committee do not intend to sign any Contract, or ask
for the payment of any Subscription until the sum of £5OOO is
promised.
Donations will be thankfully received by any Member of the
Committee, or by CHARLES GROVES, Esq., or at the following
Banks :—Dranch Bank of England; Messrs. Leyland and Bul-
lens ; Messrs. Arthur Heywood, Sons, and Co.; Royal Bank;
the Bank of Liverpool and the Union Bank.
