COLLINS'S
PATENT DISINFECTING POWDER.

IT is an established fact that where STENCH arises
from DRAINS, PRIVIES, SLAUGHTER-HOUSES, STAGNANT
DITCHES, &c., there CHOLERA and TYPHUS are found.
COLLINS'S DISINFECTING POWDER, when exposed to
moisture, yields free CHLORINE, which perfectly and almost
instantly destroys these stenches, and thus prevents Cholera
and Fevers. In the important property of yielding FREE
CHLORINE on exposure to moisture, it differs essentially from
Chloride of Lime and all liquid Disinfectants. It requires no
trouble in its use. and its cost is trifling. A Package can be
had from the druggist's for Sixpence, which is sufficient for a
month's domestic use. Dr. Brett and other eminent Chymists
have tested and certified to its perfect efficacy.

ENGLISH'S PATENT CAMPHINE COMPANY,
SOLE PATENTEES OF CAMPHINE,
-REG to CAUTION Consumers against many•offered
imitations of Patent Camphine, such being dangerous and
unpleasant in burning.
The recently improved Lamps, with Patent Camphine, effec-
tually prevent smoke and smell ; and, consequent upon the
great advance in the price of all Oils, the Patent Camphine is
the cheapest article offered to the .Public. The Light being
equal to that of the rays of the sun, and giving a uniform Light
day and night, has been adopted at the Royal Observatories of
Greenwich and Woolwich, for the purpose of Photographic
Registrations. Mr. Glaisher, in his letter from the Royal Ob-
servatory, Greenwich, writes:—" Your Camphine has burnt
night and day for many months, constantly, without smoke,
smell, or blacks, and has been uniformly pure." Captain
Youngbusband, from the Magnetic Observatory, Woolwich,
says :—" English's Patent Camphine answers our purpose
admirably."

CAUTION.—DR. Laconic's MEDICINES.—The extraordinary
success of these Wafers has tempted unprincipled persons to
imitate them in all kinds of ways—one more daring counterfeit
in the form of Pills, (which has been advertised in the Man-
chester Newspapers,) even copies the form of the advertisement
of Dr. Locock's Wafers, and states that Mr. George Westma-
cott, of Market-street, and other most respectable Chemists in
Manchester, are "Agents by Appointment"—which is totally
false, as Mr. Westmacott has not only not consented to become
agent for the sale of any such preparation, but has actually de-
termined not to keep those Pills in his stock. [ln a letter just
received by Messrs. Da Silva and Co., (the sole London Agents
for Dr. Locock's Medicines,) dated Manchester, foctober 23d,
1849. Mr. Westmacott writes—" I have just been shown an
advertisement of a medicine called Lococx's PILLS,' to which
my name is attached as Agent, which is entirely without my
authority,' and, indeed, it is my determination not to keep the
medicine at all."] From such unprincipled deception the only
protection consists in observing that no medicine is genuine
but " DR. LOCOCK'S PULOSONIC WAFERS," forAsthma,Coughs,
Colds, &c. :—and "DR. Lococx's FEMALE WAFERS" the only
medicine recommended to Ladies, by the use of which, they
pass through life comparatively free from complaint, and never
suffer from the painful diseases of advanced life. Consumption
is prevented. chlerosis, general weakness, accompanied by
weariness and sinking at the pit of the stomach, feverishness,
indigestion, constipation, loss of appetite, flatulence, heart-
burn, giddiness, palpitation, pains in the head, stomach, loins,
and all hysterical affections. They have a plesant taste. Price
le. 12d., 26. 9d., and Ils. per box. Observe that all lima under
similar names are counterteite.
