j PRIESTLEY, CHEMIST, Lord-street, begs parti-
el • cularly to call the attention of his Friends and the
Public to the undermentioned selection of Preparations.
PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ POWDERS,
Which approach nearer than anything yet discovered to
the Chakbeate Waters of Germany. The style of
preparing PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ POWDERS is peculiar
to himself, and combines scientific skill with great accu-
racy ; and though numbers of people unacquainted with
the business, and others, have of late years attempted
imitations, they have invariably been found to be spurious
compounds, neither possessing Vae agreeable flavour nor
the medicinal properties of the Seidlitz Waters.
Sold in Boxes, 2s. each, containing twenty•four Pow-
ders, to make one dozen tumbler glasses, and in Tin
Cases, 10s. each. The latter are put up in a very eligible
form for exportation, or to use at sea, and will keep any
length of time in all climates.
