GREAT FIRE
IN MARKET-STREET, MANCHESTER ;
ENTIRELY CONSUMING A LARGE SQUARE OF WARE-
HOUSES, OFFICES, AND SHOPS.
TN the last great Fire in George-street, Manchester,
1. nine large Houses had their Books burned in Iron Safes,
Closets Is ith Iron Doors, Wrought Iron Fireproof (?) Safes,
&c. &c. &c. ; and again on the above recent occasion, a great
number of parties have suffered the salne calamity. The only
Safe which brought its contents uninjured out of the burning
mass being the one alluded to below.

" Manchester, August 13th, 1847.
" GENTLEMEN In the late Fire in Market-street, which
entirely gutted the entire 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,
watches, &c., were preserved uninjured in one of your Fire-
resisting Safes, which I strongly recommend to the public.
" I am your obedient servant
"THOMAS THOMAS HAIGH, Woollen Merchant,
" New Brown-street and Market-street.
" Messrs. Milner and Son."

The outside of this Safe was partially melted: the contents
inside unsinged, being steamed (boiled instead of burned) by
the evaporating principle of the Safe. Near to it a large
Wrought Iron Fireproof (?) chambered Safe, full of valuable
Books and Documents before the Fire, was found to contain
nothing but tinder and ashes after it I

--In tile numerous accidental Fires and experimental tests
which Milners' 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 • in-
cluding the strongest Wrought-iron Safes, Closets, and Doors
in the World. lined with their uneaualled Fire-resisting Cham-
bers. Out of upwards of 20.000 of their Sates in use amongst
the Manufacturing and Commercial Houses of Great Britain—
the class best able to appreciate their value—numerous cases of
exposure to accidental fire 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. Blackaller's Ship and Chandlery Store, Spar-
ling-street, Liverpool ; a sti ong and fierc Fire; Safe most
severely burnt outside • contents unsinged.
I've at Messrs. J. and W. Walkers', the extensive builders,
Birkenhead • buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in
them, including the contents of large Iron Safe and drawers,
standing besides Milners'; the contents of Milners' uninjured,
and in use now.
Fire at Messrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park-lane; a very strong
fire ; again the contents of Milners' Safe the only thing saved
on the premises.
Fire at Plimsaul Brothers', of Plymouth ; a very extensive
and destructive fire; a large Iron Safe covered with brickwork
with double Iron doors burnt out; Milners' entirely preserving
its contents.
Fire in Queen-street, Glasgow; a great number of Safes and
Closets burnt out; no books saved throughout the buildings
excepting Messrs. S. R. and Thomas Browns', in Milners
Safe. - -

S YKES' ORIENTAL CAMPHOR TOOTH PASTE.
The premature decay of the TEETH arises from varioutt
Causes, but chiefly from early neglect, ill health, and the use of
Tooth Powders containing Mineral and other Acids, which give
a temporary whiteness to the Teeth, while they quickly corrode
the enamel. This Paste imparts to Teeth, however foul and
discoloured, a pearly whiteness, a healthy redness and firm-
ness to the Gums, eradicates Scurvy, and, from its aromatic
quality, sweetens the breath, and will be found highly refresh-
ing to the mouth after its use.
FROM W. J. BRANDE, ESQ., CHEMIST TO THE MINT.
London, October 9th, 1844.
SIR, —I have examined the Tooth Paste of which you sent me
a sample, and find no ingredient in it likely, either mechani-
cally or chemically, to injure the Teeth.—Yours faithfully,N
