WHEN QUALITY is thus m he primary consideration—
and Price is fi upon strictly economical princi-
ples—we confident that our interest—as in-
volved the question of Profit—would be fully
secu dby an increasing demand, which has been,
and must be, the result of such a system—so ob-
viously based.
THE CONSTANT care and exact judgment exercised in our
method of selection and classification of qualities
—have been appreciated and proved by the conti-
nually increasing extent of the FAMILY TRADE—
in connexion with our Establishment.

WE CANNOT refrain from directing the attention of Family
Purchasers, to the present anomalous state of the—
TEA MARKET—TIZ.,
THE FIRST COST of good and choice kinds is, at present,—
unusually reasonable, at the same time, there is
an increasing demand for the commonest BLACK
TEA. This indicates that—CHEAPNESS—being
more regarded by many dealers than QUALITY—
Disappointment is the necessary consequence, to
FAMILIES whose supplies are derived from par-
ties not possessing the requisite advantages in
SELECTION and PURCHASE.

MILNER'S " lIOLDFAST" and FIRE-RESIST-
ING SAFES are the strongest, best, and cheapest safe-
guard in the world against fire, robbery, and fraud; 20,000 of
them keep the books, deeds, and cash of the practical men of
Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow, &c., who know their superi-
ority to any others. Five of them have brought their ',intent.

unscathed out of the ruins of large fires in Glasgow alone this
year, wherein scores of other safes have been burnt out.
Twenty-five offices were burnt out in Lincoln's-inn in January,
in one alone of which the title-deeds of thirty large landed
estates were burnt, which would all have been preserved in
Milner 's Safes. From some hundreds of certificates, the fol-
lowing is selected, as one out of many instances in which
everything wits- consumed in the buildings excepting what
Milner's Safe contained :

above disorders. It never turns acid on the weakest stomach.
nor interferes with a good liberal diet, but imparts a healthy
relish for lunch and dinner, and restores the faculty of diges-
tion and nervous and muscular energy to the most enfeebled.
50,000 testimonials, some of which are given below, leave no
doubt of its restorative virtues.

" It has the highest approbation of Lord Stuart de Decies:;
the Venerable Archdeacon Alexander Stuart, of Ross—a cure
of three years' nervousness and debility caused by a bad fever;

Flavell, Ridlington Rectory, Norfolk, who records the cure of
his servant from 8 years' dyspepsia in an aggravated form,
with spasms, cramps, pains in the stomach, chest, and side,
sickness and vomiting after eating, and great prostration of
strength ; Capt. Andrews, R.N. ; Capt. Edwards, R.N. ; Wm.
Hunt, Esq., barrister-at-law, King's College, Cambridge, who,
after suffering 60 years from partial paralysis, has regained the
use of his limbs in a very short time upon this excellent food ;

disorders; Mr. Thomas Woodhouse, Bromley—recording the

" Gentlemen,—At the calamitous fire yesterday morning, by
which our premises, and stock of oil, tallow, &c., were totally
destroyed, our books were preserved in the Milner's Fireproof
Safe, purchased from you. We have great pleasure in thus
bearing testimony to the great efficiency of these Safes.
" CHARLES BOYD and CO."
This Safe was most severely tested; the brass knob.and brass
work about the lock were melted off.

" Glasgow, 10th February, 1849.
" Gentlemen,—The books and papers which we had in your
Fire-resisting Safe, which was subjected to a most intense heat
for several hours at the late fire in Gordon-street, on Thursday
last, were wholly preserved—the property saved being of ex-
treme importance to us. We have, therefore, great pleasure
in communicating this fact, deeming your Safes invaluable as
a protection against fire, and an invention with which the pub-
lic cannot be too well acquainted.—We are, gentlemen, your
obedient servants, " KER, DOERING, and CO."
The outside of the above Safe was completely burnt through.
Triumphant Resistance to Robbers :

" Messrs. Thos. Milner and Son, Liverpool.
Gentlemen,—Our Milner's Safe was attempted to be bro-
ken open last night ; but, notwithstanding the great and per-
severing violence with which the robbers have worked at the
door and back of the Safe (both of which are beaten in and cut
through the outer plates in numerous places), the lock and
bolts remained true, and saved the contents. You may send
us another Milner's Holdfast Safe, No. 6.

tirely gutted the whole block of buildings of which my ware-
house formed part, I have sincere pleasure in informing you
that my books, together with a quantity of valuable papers,

" I hereby certify, that haling examined Du Barry's Health
Restoring Food,' I find it tote a pure vegetable Farina,perfectly
wholesome, easily digestible, likely to promote a healthy action
of the stomach and bowels, and thereby to counteract dyspep-
sia, constipation, and their nervous consequences.

IMPORTANT CAUTION.—Of late many ignorant persons, ac-
tuated by cupidity alone, have attempted to foist upon the
public flour or powder of Lentils, in imitation of Du Barry's
invaluable Revalenta Arabica Food (a farina possessing the
highest curative principles of any substance ever discovered,
and of which Messrs. Du Barry & Co. are the :.ole proprietors
and possessors). These imitative impostors have not hesitated
to copy our advertisements, and puff as CURATIVE that which,
though unobjectionable as Mott when properly prepared, pos-
sesses no more curative virtues than a piece of bread. Nor
can they chew a single curative effect, whilst Du Barry's Reva-
lenta Arabica Food has cured 50,000 persons of high respecta-
bility, even in cases where all other remedies had failed and all
hopes ofrecovery.ahandoned. But they invariably refer to this
Old Testament es their great authority I forgetting that the
only reference there made to Lentils is Esau's fraud upon his
brother Jacob; and the public is left to infer that these imita-
tors, intent upon following Esau's example, wish to perpetrate
a wholesale fraud upon invalids.

In the numerous accidental fires and experimental tests
which Milner's Safes have been exposed to, every description
of safe in use—fireproof (so called) or otherwise—have been
burnt out beside them, confirming the recommendation of the
scientific and practical authorities who have tested them; and
the Patentees, during seven years' active working of their
patent, on a rapidly extending scale, have spared no pains nor
cost in effecting improvements, by which they are enabled to
pledge themselves at all times to supply the most complete
and secure depositories for books, documents, and valuables ;
including the strongest wrought-iron safes and closets in the
world, lined with their unequalled fire-resisting chambers.
Out of upwards of 20,000 of their safes in use amongst the
manufacturing,and commercial houses in Great Britain—the
class best able' to appreciate their value—numerous cases of
severe trial irk4acculental fires have occurred, from which
Thomas Milner and Son select the following as instances, in
which they are of opinion that no other safe than their own
would have preserved its contents unburnt :
Fire at Mr. J. B. Blackaller's Ship Chandlery Store, Sperling-
street, Liverpool : a strong and fierce fire; safe most severely
burnt outside; contents unsinged.
Fire at Messrs. J. and W. Walker's, the extensive builders,
Birkenhead : buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in
them, including the contents of large iron safe and drawers,
standing beside Milner's; the contents of Milner's uninjured,
and in use now.

other complaints, and q copious extract from 50,000 testimo-
nials from patties of the highest respectability, is sent gratis
by Du Barry and, Co. on receipt of two stamps. In Canisters
