THIS COMPANY is pre ed to enter into Annual
CONTRACTS with 0 CERS and OCCUPIERS of
HOUSES, and to execute DERS for
CLEANSING IMNEYS AND FLUES
MEANS OF THEIR
NEW PATENTED APPARATUS,
which consists of a series of Six Machines,

APPLICABLE TO ALL PURPOSES OF SWEEPING,
including Steam-ship Chimneys and Hothouse Flues.

The Machinery is introduced with great facility up the
Chimney or Flue, however tortuous; and, also, through the
Chimney-pot at the head thereof; after sweeping which, it is
caused to

EXPAND AT THE TOP OF THE CHIMNEY,
so as to accommodate itself to any tortuous or
IRREGULAR FORMATION OF THE FLUE OR CHIMNEY,
thoroughly cleansing the same and bringing down the whole of
the soot before it, which is received at the grate by a screen;
the inconvenience and dirt at present occurring being avoided.
by the new method.
CHIMNEYS CAN BE CLEANSED AT ANY HOUR

of the day most convenient to Housekeepers.
The Company, having cleansed a great number of difficult
Flues in Liverpool, are satisfied that every Chimney may be
swept by some one of their Machines, and trust that
NO OCCUPIER WILL ALLOW CLIMBING BOYS

to be resorted to in any case, that by such means the inhuman
and illegal traffic in infant suffering may be totally abolished.
It is intended to give employment to such of the present
Chimney Sweepers as are able to produce good characters, by,
means the robberies so constantly occurring will be
avoided. The Company's Servants are provided with a proper
livery, and will be made to maintain a clean and decent ap-
pearance at all times. They are strictly charged, on pain of
immediate dismissal, to behave with uniform civility, and to
perform their duty in as cleanly a manner as possible. The
men are strictly prohibited from soliciting or receiving gratui-
ties of any kind; and it is particularly requested that parties
will give immediate notice to the Company of any breach of
these regulations.
THE RATES CHARGEABLE

will, from the Company's extensive operations, be on a more
moderate scale than those at present paid ; the Contract
Charges for
First-class Houses being at the rate of Is. Od. per Chimney.
Second PP JO PP Os. 9d. IP
Third PP ff „ Os. 6d. ~
Fourth f, f, PP Os. 4d. i,
In every case the soot being cleared off the premises.
The Company will cleanse the Chimneys in the Houses and
Cottages of the Poorer Classes (that is, those who do not pay
rates) GRATUITOUSLY., in aid of the exertions now in operation
by the Health Committee 4 the Council of the Borough of
Liverpool for the proper ventilation of such dwellings.
The Machinery, and Drawings thereof, may be seen at the
Offices of the Company, where any further information can be
obtained, Contracts taken, and Orders received.

CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC. As Mr. Levi has been in-
formed bg several of his Patients that a person has been
calling on several houses in Liverpool, and representing
himself to some as Mr. Levi, and to others that he was sent
by him, Mr. Levi thinks it but justice to the public, to
acquaint them thal he has no connection with any such pre-
tenders, nor does he attend out of his residence (except by
particular desire), neither will he be responsible for any
accident that is likely to occur by employing such empirics-
Mr. L. begs particularly to direct the attention of those who
may be troubled with Corns, Bunions, 6.c., .&c., to a para-
graph which appeared in the "LONDON MOKNING -POST,"
of November the 13th, where will be see dangerous re-
sults that may occur from unskilful t ment.
MONSIEUR LEVI, CHIR DIST, from Paris, and

has the honour to announc the Nobility, Gentry, and Inha-
bitants of Liverpool and • Environs his FOURTH ANNUAL
PROFESSIONAL VI to this town; and, owing to his
numerous engagem sin London ad Paris, his present stay
will be necessarily ort ;an immediate application will there-
fore be desirabl
Mons. L. takes the present opportunity to return'his gratefulthanks for the extensive patronage and kindness he experienced
during his former visits, and considers it his duty to state that
various arrangements at his establishments in London and
Paris will preclude the possibility of his revisiting:, this town.
for a very long period, so that those who may require his pro-
fessional services should not lose the present favourable oppor-
tunity.
Monsieur Levi may be CONSULTED DAILY, for a short
time only, from the hours of Ten till Four o'clock, at his Resi-
dence,

N 0.34, BOLD-STREET, LIVERPOOL.
Mons. L. (who has no professional connexion with any Person
whatever) begs to submit the following Testimonials :
COPIES OF TESTIMONIALS.
From Mervyn Richardson, Esq.
I have much pleasure in certifying that Mr. Levi extracted
several corns out of my feet eighteen months since, and upon a
thorough examination, I find there is not the least sign of any
others having taken their places, and I have been perfectly free
from pain in consequence.

From James Plumpton, Esq.
I certify that Mons. Levi removed a very troublesome corn
from my foot two years ago, which has not returned. I had
also extracted this day, a soft corn between the toes, with equal
skill and without the least pain.
