BIRD'S
HYDROSTATIC SYPHON WATER PURIFIER
delivers (per day) an abundant

STREAM of from 150 to 200 GALLONS of WATER,
equal to that which flows from the finest mountain springs,
retaining all its crystalline freshness and beauty, and as
brilliant and sparkling as the diamond. It purifies Rain, Ri-
ver, Tank, Pond, or Pump Water, however dirty, the Water
retaining all the atmospheric air, on which the freshness of the
taste depends.
It is especially adapted for the use of Private Families,
Hotels, Inns, Club-houses, Hospitals, Public Institutions,
Ships on long voyages, &c. &c., and in all cases where a never-
failing supply of good water is desired. On shipboard the
Purifier will be exceedingly valuable. It will supply Water of
the greatest purity for a ship's company of three hundred
men.

This Purifier has been submilted to the inspection of the
Board of Health, by whom it was highly commended. The
following is the opinion of Robert Raw•linson, Esq., engineer
to the board :

" The General Board of health, Giryder house,
Whitehall, June 27, 1850. _

" Sir,—l have no hesitation in' saying that I consider the
Hydrostatic Syphon Water Purifier the best mechanical Filter
I have as yet seen, because it may be used without trouble or
alteration in any existing cistern.
' I am, Sir, yours truly,
" ROBERT RAWLINSON.

HEALTH WHERE 'TIS SOUGHT!

HOLLOWAY'S PILLS

CURE OF A DISORDERED LIVER AND STOMACH,
WHEN IN A MOST HOPELESS STATE.
Extract of a Letter from Mr. Matthew Harvey. of Chapel
Hall, Airdrie, Scotland, dated the 15th of January, 1850.
To Professor HOLLOWAY.

Sin,—Your valuable Pills have been the means, with God's
blessing, of restoring me to a state of perfect health, and at a
time when I thought I was on the brink of the grave. I had
consulted several eminent doctors, who, after doing what they
could for me, stated that they considered my case as hopeless.
I ought to say that I had been suffering from a Liver and Sto-
mach complaint of long standing, which during the last tw•
years got so much worse that every one considered my condi-
tion as hopeless. las a last resource got a Box of your Pills.
which soon gave relief, and by persevering in their use for
some weeks, together with rubbing night and morning your
Ointment over my chest and stomach, and right side, I have
by their means alone got completely cured, and to the astonish-
ment of myself and every body who knows me.
(Signed) MAITHEW HARVEY.

H. G, IRELAND,
Of 92, BOLD-STREET,

MOST respectfully informs the Ladies of Liverpool
that his

STOCK OF FURS FOR THE SEASON
IS NOW READY;

at the same time he returns his sincere thanks for the distin-
guished patronage he has received during eleven years, which
has enabled him to offer for their approval one of the

LARGEST RETAIL STOCKS OF FURS IN
THE KINGDOM ;

comprising every Description and all the Novelties that have
yet appeared in the
LONDON OR PARISIAN MARKETS.

In inviting the Ladies to an inspection thereof, he does not
wish to hold out any absurd inducement. He feels, however,
gratified in observing, that as he purchases his Skins precisely
on the same terms as the largest Wholesale Houses, and also
➢lanufactures them, he obtains thereby an advantage over the
smaller Purchaser who merely retails them, and is enabled to
charge much lower than they possibly can. The Establish-
ment is, moreover, exclusively devoted to the Sale of FURS.
TO ALTERATIONS AND REPAIRS
it will always be his study to devote as much attention and
care as if he were engaged in the manufacture of new articles ;
he never trusts them to other than the most clever artisans the
trade can produce, and takes every care that all the depart-
ments of his House are nutter his own inspection, and on the
Premises; he has the utmost security for punctual and faith-
ful execution of every order with which he may be entrusted.
