AGAINST FIRE TO BOOKS AND

MOST VALUABLE, BUT UNINSURABLE.

SEVENTH recent practical service of MILNERS'
FIRE-RESISTING SAFES.—Fire Resisting by self-con-
tained and self-acting evaporation, which must always precede
and prevent Fire. _ _ _

excepting what Milners' Safe preserved, was consumed.
"TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, ETC.
"Stn,—ln the complete burning of the whole of our pre-
mises on Monday last, the only things saved out of the stock
and property were our Books, which we feel that we owe en-
tirely to MILNERS' FIRE-RESISTING SAFE, in which we kept
them. The Safe bears evidence of the intense fire it had re-
sisted, and it was with as much surprise as gratitude that, on
breaking it open after the fire, we found instead of ashes as we
expected, our Books perfect as we left them. We think it due
to this invaluable invention, and to the public, to make this de-
claration through your columns.

"Dear Sir,—We have much pleasure in bearing unqualified
testimony to the efficiency and important advantages of MIL-
NERS' FIRE-RESISTING AND BOXES, in cases of acci-
dent from Fire.
"After the destructive Fire at our Offices this morning, the
Books and Papers deposited in the MILNERS' SAFE purchased
from you; were found to be entirely uninjured by Fire, whilst
those contained in a strong Iron Safe and Drawers, standing
beside it, were completely destroyed.
" We will accordingly thank you to supply us with another
SAFE of the same size (No. 4) and description immediately.
" Sir, your obedient Servants,

"Mr. .TAMES LAW, Stationer, Birkenhead."

The Liverpool papers, in reporting the fire, state, " The
building in which the fire commenced was cempletely gutted,
and the whole of the contents destroyed, with the exception of
the Books, those being preserved in one of MLNERs' PATENT
SAFES. Messrs. Walker have sustained a ver' serious loss,. by
the destruction of a number of plans and specifications of build-
ings, some erected and othersin course of erection, which it is
almost impossible to estimate. These were consumed in a
strong Iron Safe, standing beside MILNERS' SAFE."

FIFTY ULCERS ! CURED IN SIX WEEKS BY
HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT

RE ULCERS

ARE SO DIFFICULT TO CURE

Extract of a Leiter from John Martin. Esq., Chronicle Office,

TAago, 411 i February,_lB4.s

To PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY.-Sir,---I beg to inform you that
the inhabitants of this island, especially those who cannot afford
to employ medical gentlemen, are very anxious of having your
astonishing Medicines within their reach, from the immense
benefits some of them have derived from their use, as they have
been found here, in several cases, to cure Sores and Ulcers of
the most malignant and desperate kind. One gentleman in this
Island, who had, I believe, about fifty running ulcers about his
legs, arms, and body, who had tried all other Medicines before
the arrival of yours, but all of which did him no good ; but
yours cured him in about six weeks, and he is now, by their
means alone, quite restored to health and vigour.

time that it would require by using the Ointment alone. The
Ointment is proved to be a certain remedy for the bite of Mos-
chettoes, Sand-flies, Chiego-foot, Yaws, and Coco-bay.
Burns, Scalds, Chilblains, Chapped Hands and Lips, also
Bunions and Soft Corns, will be immediately cured by the use
of the Ointment.
THE PILLS are not only the finest remedy known when used
with the Ointment, but as a General Medicine there is nothing
to equal them. In nervous affections, as well as in all cases of
general debility, or where there is a want of parity in the blood
and fluids they will insure HEALTH TO ALL ! !
