VEAL Judges of SODA WATER need not to be told that
JILL its main excellence consists in the LENGTH, OF TIME during
which it retains its life and pungency AFTER IS POURED OUT,
and not (as many erroneously suppose) on e force with which
it expels the cork. This latter is rather e characteristic of
the commonest Soda Water, fur the obvious reason that the air
is disengaged. whereas, by the peculiar principle of SCHWE PPE'S
process, the Carbonic Acid does not escape with the cork, but,
being thoroughly amalgamated with the water, remains as a
valuable medicinal feature in their manufacture. The same
observations will apply to their Aerated Lemonade, Potass and
Magnesia Waters. •
Pray observe the RED LABEL, over the Cork, representing
their Siguatuse, as many of the other makers impose upon the
public by fillinb " Schweppe's Bottles" with their own spurious
Composition.

fTOY'S CONCENTRATED ESSENCE OF RUNNET,
1 Prepared only by THOMAS HENRY HOY, Pharma-
ceutical Chemist, Liverpool. and Chemi to his Grace the
Duke of Northumberland, K.G., for in' •ing Whey in one vtmi-
nute without Boiling or Trouble, hay gan agreeable flavour,
acceptable to the most delicate palate, and warranted to keep
for any time and in any climate.
The famous "Petit lait" so much recommended by the fa-
culty on the continent, can only be made properly with Run-
net, but hitherto any preparation thereof has been attended with
so much trouble in boiling the milk. and the great quantity of
Runnet required; rendering the Whey unpalatable and nau-
seous, as even to leave the article almost useless. The present
preparations have the following recommendations :—it does not
require the milk to he boiled, and from its concentrated form,
so small a quantity is required, and even that is so prepared as
to give the Whey an agreeable and aromatic taste.
Full and simple directions are attached to each Bottle, so that
the most ignorant could not err in preparing it. at any hour of
the night, if in possession of a small quantity of Boiling Water.
'CAumiti.—The Public are respectfully requested to ask for
Hay's Essence of Ru-nnet," to guard against being imposed
upon by a spurious imitation vending in town.
