NEVER KNOWN TO FAIL.-BRANDE'S
BRONCHIAL SEDATIVE, equal in Medicinal effect
to Two of any other preparation for Coughs, Colds, Bron-
chitis, Asthma, Pulmonary Phthisis, Influenza, Derangement
of the Voice. and all Affections of the Chest and Lungs.
Compounded under the direction of a Professional Gentleman,
who for many years has made the Anatomy and Pathology of
the Chest and Lungs his particular study.
The Influence of BRANDE'S BRONCHIAL SEDATIVE
pursues the exact tract of the inflammatory action causing
cough. First soothing the glottis and epiglotis (the organs of
voice), its sedative influence passes along the mucous lining
of the windpipe unto the bronchii, and allaying pulmonary
irritation, giving ease and comfort to the chest—restoring
the voice to its accustomed clearness and power.
Authentic Testimonials selected from an immense number of
others, showing the good already effected by this Medicine.
"Dark-street, Haverfordwest, Feb. 18th, 1849.
"Sir,—Having been recommended by Mr. 0. E. Davies, of
this town, to try Brande's Bronchial Sedative, for a very
severe cough, with which I was troubled for more than six
months, I did so, and after taking only two packets. I was
perfectly recovered. I had been for months tune I could not
rest night or day, with difficulty of breathing, and a tickling
sensation in the throat, and the cough at times was so severe
that I was nearly suffocated. I can now sleep comfortably,
and am quite free from pain.-1 am, &c.,
"To Mr. John Willis." MARY ROGERS.
" Victoria Cottage, Romford.
" Sir,—l cannot express to you my thanks for the relief I
have found from taking your Cough Wafers. They hive done
me a world f good. Formerly I was never without a cough,
and tried all sorts of medicines without being able to remove
it; now, thanks to you, it is gone. Your medicine, unlike•
any other I have tried, acts as a stimulant to the digestive
organs, and improves the general health.—l am, yours, &c.,
"To Mr. John Willis." ' " ROBERT SHEPPARD.
"Sir,—Having received great benefit from a parcel of your
invaluable medicine, " Brande's Bronchial Sedative," which
I received about a fortnight ago, I have again to request you
will be pleased to forward me four parcels of the same.—l am,
&c., JOHN Bu REX, Corporal 68th Lt. Infantry, Galway.
"To Mr. John Willis."
Since the introduction of this medicine it has been rapidly
supplanting every other preparation administered for pul-
monary disorders. The Proprietor urges the Medical Profes-
sion, Chemists, and others, to introduce it to the afflicted.

bers, Fleet-street ; wholesale by all the large Medicine Houses,
and sold retail by all respectabte Chemists and Patent Medi-
cine Vendors, in packets, at Is. lid.; and in tins, containing
three of the smaller packets, at 2a. th each.
Should any difficulty occur in obtaining the Sedative from
the local Chemists, by sending is. and three stamps, or 15
stamps, to JOHN WILLIS, 3, Temple-chambers, Fleet-street,

PAINS IN THE BACK, GRAVEL,
LUMBAGO, RHEUMATISM. GOUT, HEADACHE,
NERVOUSNESS, DEBILITY, &c.—DILDE ROOS'
COMPOUND RENAL PILLS (as their name Renal,
or the Kidneys. indicates) have been long established as a
most safe and efficacious remedy for the above dangerous
complaints, Discharges of any kind, and Diseases of the Kid-
neys, arc., which, if neglected, frequently end in a lingering
painful death. For Depression of Spirits, Excitement, Dis-
like of Society, Incapacity for Study or Business, Loss of
Memory, Contusion, Giddiness, Blood to the Head, Drowsi-
ness, Sleep without refreshment, Nervousness, and even In-
sanity itself, they are unequalled. Possessing tonic proper-
ties, they agree with the most delicate stomach, strengthen
the digestive organs, increase the appetite, and improve the
general health. They require neither confinement nor change
of diet, and, as experience has amply proved, they will effect
a cure when mercury and all other dangerous medicines have
failed. One Trial will convince the most sceptical of their
surprising properties.
Mr. Letellier, Etruria, Potteries.—" Your Renal Pills hays,
done wonders with me and others to whom I have recom-
mended them."
11. C., Post-office, Stafford.—" Your Renal Pills are a most
splendid medicine."
J. Murphy, 70, Upper Sterin-street, Dublin.—" I never met
the like of them before, they are really a surprising medicine."
T. Webster, Esq.,Sealford, Melton Mowbray.—" Your valu-
able Renal Pills have done good to every one I gave them to."
Mr. Thos. Williams, at Mr. Hutchings, baker, King-street,
Chelsea.—" I was persuaded to try your most beautiful Pills,
and am happy to inform you I have received more benefit
from them than from any of the medical men in London."
W. Chartres, Esq., Newport. Mayo.—" I have a degree f of
mental energy and vigour such as I did not feel these two
years. My memory is wonderfully improved, so that I can
recollect all the events of each day with the greatest degree of
clearness. It is astonishing how I got out of such awful suf-
ferings, but I think I owe it altogether to the use of your Pills."
PERSONS GOING ABROAD, CAPTAINS and OTHERS,
cannot store more important articles of health than the above,
which, by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, and tranquil-
lizing the Nervous System, will prevent those fatal diseases so
prevalent abroad, as also Sea Sickness and other complaints
incidental to long voyages and irregular living. No Emi-
grant's Chest can be properly furnished without them, for
when far removed from medical aid, they will find in these
Pills a never-failing restorative.
IMPORTANT.—Some unprincipled Vendors, when asked for
Dr. DE Roos' PILLS, have attempted to foist upon the public
other Medicines or trash of their own compounding, from
which they obtain a larger profit. The GENUINX have the
words, " WALTER DE ROOS, LONDON," in white letters
on a red ground, printed in the Stamp affixed to each box ;
by special direction of Her Majesty's Honourable Commis-
sioners, to protect the Public from Fraud, and to imitate
which is felony.

GREAT FIRE AT THE GIITTA
PERCHA COMPANY'S WORKS, AND DEFEATED

BURGLARIES.
THOMAS MILNER and SON have sincere pleasure in
communicating to their Friends and the Public the follow►ng
new endorsements to the claims of their HOLDFAST and
FIRE-RESISTING SAFES. The Fire at the Gutta Percha
Company's Works was of the most intense character, as may
well be conceived from the nature of its food. Gutta Percha,
Oil, Naptha, reducing the buildings to a pile of gutted red-bot
walls. The Safe has been most severely tried, as theletter
testifies, and brought its contents out of the Furnace without
a singe upon them.
" Gutta Percha Company's Works,
" City-road, London, Bth June, 1853.
" Sins,—We consider it only our duty to inform you of the
entire preservation of all the books and papers* contained in
the large safe you recently supplied us with, although exposed
during Sunday last to a fire which destroyed the larger part of
our works. This is the more remarkable, as the intense heat
has in many parts melted the outside of the safe.
" We are of opinion that so successful a vindication of the
merits of your invention cannot, on public grounds, be too
generally known ; and we therefore leave you at liberty to use
this letter in any way you may wish.
" We are, Sirs. your obedient servants,
"THE GUTTA PERCHA COMPANY.
" HENRY FORD BARCLAY.
"To Messrs. Thomas Milner and Son,
47A, Moorgate-street, City, London."
* Including £5,000 worth of Cash and Bills.

"Scotland-road Mills, Liverpool, Bth June, 1853.
GENTLEMEN,—Some time back 1 was indebted to your
strong Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safe for the protection of a
large amount of cash, against the violent and persevering
attempts of burglars at my steam-mills, in Woodstock-street,
and I have now the pleasure of informing you that I have
lately found the same impregnable security in the one I had
last from you for my provision }}warehouse in Brownlow• bill.
The floor was all trodden over around the safe, as if the thieves
had been at it for many hours, after which they got it out into
the back yard, and as it could not be picked or broken open,
they then filled the key-hole with gunpowder, thinking to gain
admission by explosion ; but in which they were again foiled.
"I feel it due to your invaluable safeguards to give you this
testimonial, and shall strongly recommend them to all my
friends. Please send me another of the same size for my house.
"I am, Gentlemen, yours respectfully,
"THOMAS LEICESTER.
" Messrs. Thomas Milner and Son."
