NELSON'S GELATINE.-CAUTION.
HALF THE PRICE OF ISINGLASS

FROM the increasing demand for NELON'S PATENT
OPAQUE GELATINE, some unpri4eipled persons are
imposing spurious articles upon the Public, none of which
have the strength and purity of NELSON'S OPAQUE, and
many of them contain Acids, which are highly deleterious,
and totally unfit for culinary purposes. As the use of any
other than NELSON'S PATENT OPAQUE GELATINE
must necessarily prove a failure, and end in disappointment,
the Public are requested to ask for NELSON'S PATENT
OPAQUE GELATINE, which, as a protection to pur-
chasers, is sold in Packets only, by most respectable Chemists
and Grocers of the United Kingdom, at Is., ls. 6d., 2s. 6d.,
55., 10s., and 15s.

Each
E Packet bears the Patentee's Signature.
EXTRACT FROM DR. LIRE'S TESTIMONIAL.

13, Charlotte-street, Bedford-square, June 6, 1841.
I have subjected to a careful Chemical Examination the
Patent Opaque Gelatine of Mr. George Nelson, and find it
to be at least equal in strength and purity, if not superior, to
the best Isinglass, for every culinary purpose.
Mr. Nelson's Gelatine is therefore capable of forming the
best Blanc Mange, without being apt to curdle the Milk, as
the Acidulous Gelatine infallably will do, I find that one
ounce of his Opaque Gelatine is sufficient to form a Quart of
Calves' Foot or Orange Jelly of the best quality. _ _
