IF a highly concentrated combination of Carbonic Acid Gas,
with a valuable and esteemed Alkali, if unparalleled spe-
cific gravity, in an exhaustless spring, supplying the ele-
itentary material, and freed from all impure aid' earthy
carbonates BE GEMS in the production of a first Late bottle
of Soda Water, then ELLIS'S manufacture ay fearlessly
challenge comparison with all the world.
The want of PURE and SUITABLE VATER, in the
first place, and the want of perfectly understanding the ma-
nufacturing process, in the second place, abundantly account
for the frequent complaint, disappointment, and annoyance
constantly experienced by all true lovers of this delightful
and wholesome beverage.
The extensive patronage which the Royal Family, the No-
bility and Gentry have bestowed upon ' ELLIS'S SODA
, v., ATER," equally attest its excellency and superiority, and
t it now the only Fashionable Beverage used at the Tables
of Royalty.

MOST IMPORTANT TESTIMONIAL OF LIEUT.
, MASTERS, H.P. LATE OF THE ROYAL NEW-
'OUNDLAND VETERAN COMPANIES,
(CERTIFICATE.)
St. John's, Newfoundland, 12th March, 1838.
Conformably to a Garrison Order, dated 9th March, 1838,
for the assembly of a Medical Board, to take into considera-
tion the state of health of Lieut. Masters, R.V.C., and to
report accordingly, we, the undersigned, Staff Officer and
Civil Practitioner, forming the Board authorised by that
order, after a strict examination of the case of Lieut. Masters,
Consider him as entirely unfit for militart,ituty. Lieut.
Masters has for several years been afffictedirith Rheumatism
Gout, which has produced serious functionary derangements
of his stomach, liver, and other viscera, and finally given
!late to infirmity, weakness, and enlargement of the articula-
"cms, especially of the ancle joints ; his general health and
constitution is much impaired, and therefore, in our opinion,
he is incapable of further service.

LETTER OF LIEUT. MASTERS TO MR. PROUT, 229, STRAND,

LONDON.
Hawley, near Bayskot, 131/i Jan., 1840.
Sig,—Considering that the public would be greatly bene-
fitted by the publication of the extraordinary benefit which I
have derived by taking Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills, I
herewith send the particulars of my case, and the Medical
Certificate by which I was invalided. I was first attacked
With Rheumatic Gout in 1826, from which period to 1833 I
Was under the treatment of the late Drs. Rod, Horner, and
Jacobs, as well as by the present Dr. Davis, all of Hamp-
stead. From 1833 to 1838 I was at St. John's, Newfound-
land, doing duty as a Subaltern in the Royal Veteran Com-
Panics, where I suffered most severely, and was under the
Care of Surgeon Huston, R. V. C., Staff Assistant-Surgeon
Perguson, and Mr. Shea, private practitioner there, without
being able to prevent the most violent fits of the gout three
°r four times annually, which becoming so bad caused the
Garrison Order for the Medical Board, as before named.
About the middle of last February and the whole of March
111 Y sufferings were dreadful ; in fact, I was unt6le to move
tithout being carried ; when Major Birch, of Crondale, near
arnhani a Magistrate of this County, kindly commiserating
I°Y situation, called on me for the purpose of taking my
4ffidavit that I might receive my half-pay ; and seeing me in
8° miserable a state, advised me to try Blair's Gout and
rheumatic Pills, saying, although not gouty himself, he
411ew several who had derived benefit from them. I had
Previously been advised by a then neighbour, Mr. Fedgent,
of Aldershot, to try them, but I declined until the Major
recommended them. I commenced by taking them accord-
Ilig to the directions ; and, after takinc, six pills, found a
cessation of all pain. and the remainder of the box effectually
settled that tit. I have since had several attacks, but as soon
48 1 feel the least sensation of the disease I take the pills,
''llich have at once removed all symptoms. I may also men-
'l°4 that the chalk which had formed on my ears has disap-
Peared, and where it formed in my fingers is decreasing. I
ave ceased to have those very weakening perspirations to
Which I was subject before trying the pills.
Were you to print my case, and appoint an Agent in St.
tt),°,llfl's Newfoundland, where my sufferings were known,
„,`Lo where there are so many afflicted with Rheumatic Gout,
3°4 Would vastly increase the sale of this valuable Medicine.
I am, Sir, your obedient Servant,
