BRILLIANCY AND ECONOMY IN LIGHT.

THE PURE VESTA SPIRIT, FOR THE VESTA,
PARAGON, AND OTHER LAMPS ;
MANUFACTURED BY JOHN TALL AND CO ,
6, NORTH WALLS, HULL. •

VERY great imprdvements having been effected in this
Rectified Spirit, it can with confidence be recom-
mended as possessing qualities decidedly superior to any
manufactured. It combines the advantages of cleanliness
and economy, with perfect freedom from smoke or smell ;
and, whilst it imparts a most brilliant light, one lamp
being equal to at least twelve wax candles, the wick does
not require to be cut more than once a week.

The following statement of the analysis of Dr. Ure
affords a complete verification of its excellent properties :
.Report of an experimental examination of the Vesta
Lamp Spirits, as Manufactured by Messrs. John Tall
and Co., of Hull ; b ANDREW URE, M.D.,
F.R.S., Professor of Chemistry.
" London, 13, Charlotte-street, Bedford-square,
19th September, 1844.

" These Spirits are the lightest and purest which I have
ever met with in commerce ; having a specific gravity of
only 0.865 at 62' Fahr., whereas the Spirits of the London
shops have a specific gravity of 0.874 or more ; that of
water being 1000.
" The comparative lightness of the Spirits indicate their
fine quality. Messrs. Tall's Spirits when distilled have
no residuum, whereas the Spirits generally on Sale leave a
quantity of Rosin. In consequence of the freedom of
Messrs. Tall's Spirits from this and other impurities I
have lighted my drawing-rooms with their flame during
several hours for five evenings successively, without hav-
ing the wick of the lamp trimmed, and without its occa-
sioning the slightest nuisance.

" ANDREW URE."
The three principal Depots for Messrs. JOHN TALL
and COMPANY'S VESTA SPIRIT are
6, North Walls, Hull ;
140, Suffolk-street, Birmingham ;
103, Hatton-garden, Holborn, London.
J. T. and Co. having observed that other Houses are
using Betts' Patent Capsule, beg to state they have made
arrangements with Mr. Betts for a Capsule bearing their
Address, (Jo UN TALL and Co., HuLL,) which will be
applied to every separate Package, to insure the genuine-
ness of their Improved Vesta Spirit.
