NEVER-FAILING REMEDY !

HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT!
A CRIPPLE SETS ASIDE HIS CRUTCHES
AFTER TEN YEARS' SUFFERING.

Copy of a Letter from Mr. Thompson, Chemist, Liverpool,
dated August 20th, 1852.
To Professor HOLLOWAY,—Dear Sir,—l am enabled to fur-
nish you with a most extraordinary cure effected by your inva-
luable Ointment and Pills, which has astonished every person
aecinairt.ti with the sufferer. About ten years ago, Mr. W.
Cummins, of Saitney-street, in this town, was thrown from his
horse, whereby he received very serious injuries • he bad the
beat medical advice at the time, and wits afterwarits an inmate
of different infirmaries, yet he grew worse, and at' length a Ma-
lignant running ulcer settled in his hip, which so completely
crippled him, that he could not move without crutches for
nearly ten years; recently he began to use your Ointment and
Pills, which have now healed the wound, strengthened his
limb, and enabled him to dispense with his crutches, so that
lie can walk with the greatest ease, and with renewed health

and vigour. J. TnOMPSON.

AN ASTONISHING CURE OF AN OLD LADY SEVENTY
YEARS OF AGE OF A BAD LEG.
Copy of a Letter from Messrs. Walker 6- Co., Chemists, Bath.
To Professor HOLLOWAY,—Dear Sir,—Among the numerous
cures effected by the use of your valuable medicines in this
neighbourhood, we may mention that of an old lady living in
the village of Preston, about tive miles from this city. She had
ulcerated wounds in her leg for many years, and latterly they
increased to such an alarming extent as to defy all the usual
remedies; her health rapidly giving way under the suffering
she endured. In this distressing condition she had recourse
to your Ointment and Pills, and by the assistance of her
friends, was enabled to persevere in their use, until she received
a perfect cure. We have ourselves been greatly astonished at
the effect upon so old a person, she being above 70 years of age.
We shall be happy to satisfy any inquries as to the authenticity
of this really wonderful case, either personally or by letter.—
A private in the Bath Police Force, also, has been perfectly
cured of an old scorbutic affection in the face, after all other
means had failed. He states that it is entirely by the use of
Your Ointment, and speaks loudly in its praise.—We remain
dear sir, yours faithfully, (Signed) WALKER and Co.
The Pills should be used conjointly with the Ointment, in
most of the following cases :

212 Q MILNER'S PATENT FIRE-RESISTING
SAFES.
MILNER v. HARRISON.
SECOND TRIAL AT LAW FOR PIRACY OF MILNER'S PATENT

THE Defendant, JOHN GERMAN HARRISON, having
persevered in the sale of Safes constructed on the princi-
ple of Milner's Patent, in defiance of the verdict found against
him in June, 1851, in the Court of Queen's Bench, and an In-
junction afterwards awarded against him by the Court of
Chancery (he pretending that the Safes sold by him since the
first trial were not infringements, but made under a patent
granted to Messrs. Sann), a second action was brought on the
suggestion of Vice-Chancellor Sir George Turner, to try
whether such safes were or were not infringementsonlUilner's
Patent.

This action was tried on the 25th June last, before Lord
Campbell and a special jury. The following extracts from the
learned Judge's address to the jury in summing up will show
distinctly the questions submitted to the jury :
Lord Campbell.—" I own it seems to me that Mr. Harrison
does not appear before you in very advantageous colours from
these proceedings. He had been in the service of Messrs.
Milner, and while in their service he takes another shop, and
there he begins and sells fire-proof boxes which were agreed by
a jury sitting where you now are to be substantially the same
as those of Milner, the Patentee, and that record has been
given in evidence: you are not bound by it, but you may at-
tend to it; and I must own that I do not see any reason to
believe that the jury who sat on the trial of that cause were in
any respect mistaken in point of fact, and I do not discover
that there is any real difference between this case and that ;
you will attend to all the evidence, and form your own conclu-
sion from the evidence that has been given.
" You are first called upon to say whether this invention of
Messrs. Milner is new. As to wheter it is useful, it seems to
me to be allowed on all bands, it seems a most marvellous pre
servative against fire ; for the water remains permanently
held in artificial vessels or in natural vessels, and the very
calamity brings the cure, for the beat causes the water to ex-
pand, and then it is turned into steam, and the steam moistens
the substance which is to be preserved, and so it is an effectual
guard against fire.
If you think this was new, then the only remaining ques-
tion is with regard to the infringement.
4. Now the infringement seems to rest upon substantially the
same evidence as the infringement on the former trial, when
the action was brought aeainst Mr. Harrison.
_ .

"Now you find with respect to Tann's Patent,tatls:k,,:tetitaelrithenssmatit.it
oa agency.
whatevercy
Tann's invention might have been, that this patent which be
manufactures, and which the defendant Harrison sells, and of
which he calls himself the sole proprietor,' operates in the
same way. It seems to me to act precisely the same way as in
Milher's patent, but upon that you will form your own judg-
ment. Then if it really has the same effect, and operates in
the same manner, and upon the same principle, it will be for
you to say whether you have any doubt it is an infraction of
Milner's Patent. Those are the two questions for you to con-
sider."
The Jury found a verdict for the Pkthaier, on both the
issues, thus establishing that the so-called Tann's Patent Safes
are a mere piracy of Milner's invention. After the trial last
year, it was pretended that the Safes then condemned were not
made according to Tann's Patent—in other words. that the
water in them had not been boiled and set to cool bejore being
used. The three Safes upon which this second action was
brought were sworn to by Messrs. ann as being made accord-
Ma to their Patent.
The Public of Liverpool will remember the species of adver-
tisements by which this wretched case has been upheld. THEY
have been as much imposed upon, with regard to the quality
and price of the safes sold by these parties, as the advertisers
have been wronged by their illegal use of Milner's (the only
effective) Fire-resisting principle. The experience of Mr.
Cafferata, as shown at this trial, (by a gentleman unknown to
us before,) is only that of all the buyers of these things. Mr.
C. was induced to give .£l5 for a safe, 22 x 16 x 16, on the
assurance that it was " Thief-proof—three quarter inch thick
solid wrought iron," &c., &c. Looking at it a day or two
afterwards, at home, and on scraping the paint off it, he found
it a MERE SHELL—a perfect delusion •, and those who have
intrusted their valuable property to such safeguards will do
well to take the same course.
For our own Safes, we have devoted our lives and our earn-
ings to the production of the best securities in the world against
Fire, Robbery, or Violence, which the public has given to us
the best means of making, and which we mean to sell at the
lowest remunerating prices. Before buying a Safe, if partiesn
