CAUTION.
HALL'S PATENT STA H.
7-----
MR. LAWRENCE HALL deem it a duty to himself
and the Public to guard them a nst the many spurious
imitations which are daily foisted on them under the va-
rious denominations of ' Best Pa t Starch," " Best White
if
Patent Starch," "Patent Glaze Starch," " Satin Faced
Starch," " Superior Patent Starch," &c. &c.
These inva
riably disappoint consumers, and greatly injure them by an
inferior article being imposed on them as his make.
It is a fact well known, that it was a few years after Mr.
HALL took out a Patent for his invention before be brought
the Article to the perfection for general use to which it has
now attained ; and it is better known still, that all the imi-
tators have utterly failed in making a Starch at all similar or
equal to HALL'S Patent Starch, other makers being ignorant
of his present mode of preparing it; and if such were not
the case, their premises and situation would not be suitable.
Purchasers of Starch are therefore particularly requested not
to be deceived by a spurious article, and they are respectfully
requested to ask for
HALL'S IMPROVED PATENT STARCH.
No other Makers of Starch ever had a Patent for it.

A FEW OF THE MANY THOUSAND TESTIMONIALS OF SIGHT

RESTORED AND DEAFNESS CURED

Nottingham, 28th August, 1841.
This extraordinary cure is attested by Mr. Jas. Wilcockson,
Foreign Snuff and Cigar Merchant, Nottingham.
To Mr. W. Grimstone, 39, Broad- street,Bloomsbury, London.
Sir,-1 feel great pleasure in sending you the particulars of
my case, and the miraculous cure performed on myself by
your valuable Eye Snuff. Sir, lam now in my ninety-third
year, and a native of Holland, have been in this country 26
years ; whether from change of climate, or my advanced age,
I cannot say, but for six years I have been deprived of sight,
therefore unable to follow my business. Ido most sincerely
believe I should have remained in darkness and pain, but for•
the kind recommendation of a friend to use your invention.
I purchased a 2s. 4d. canister of your Agent, Mr. Wilcock-
sou, Tobacconist, who knows the above to be facts, and will
bear witness to my extraordinary recovery of that most esti-
mable blessing of our life—" perfect sight"—l declare has
proceeded from the use of your Eye Snuff. For the sake of
those suffering, you may make what use you please of this
letter ; Mr. Wilcockson and many others will vouch for its
fruth. I refer the sufferers to this gentleman, being your
Agent, and so well known in Nottingham.
I am, sir, your obliged servant,
August 28th, 1841. ANNIS ZENIA MASSENIA.

To W. Grimstone, Esq., 39,„8r0ad-street

" 10th December, 1840.
" Six, I have been afflicted for many years with a severe
pain in my head, attended with a dimness of sight and dart-
ing pains in my eyes, for which I have had the first medical
advice ; indeed, I have taken large quantities of medicine,
without receiving any relief; but I am now delighted to say,
with truth, that ever since using your valuable eye snuff, which
I have taken copiously, that is, a 2s. 4d. canister weekly, I
am quite free from those excruciating pains, and can read the
smallest print, although I am in the 67th year of my age.
This is my third testimony, and I shall be most happy to give
it to you or to any respectable inquirer at my residence as
under.—l remain, with gratitude, sir, your obedient humble
servant, " E. ROBSON.

" 19, Bell-street, Edgeware-road, Marylebone."
P.S.—Sir, I should not do justice without stating my relief
was almost instantaneous. My Eyes became clear and free
from humour, and by persevering in its use very frequently I
am enabled to read small print without the aid of glasses, and
continue to enjoy God's greatest blessing—Sight ! free from
pain. I have reason to be grateful, and do recommend your
Eye Snuff to all I know. A. Z. M., Nottingham.

To Wm. Grimstone, Esq.
November 6, 1811.
Sir,—Having seen your advertisements, I inquired of some
of those gentlemen who have derived so much relief from
using " your Eye Snuff." I purchased a 2s. 4d. canister for
my son, who was suffering so much from the Head-ache and
Deafness ; before he had used half of it, he was cured, which
enabled him to follow his profession.--I am, yours gratefully,
M. HACKETT.
Mr. Banister, Surgeon, 2, Cross-court, Broad-court.

The following is one of Don G. Lobe's letters :
Havannah, 14th August, 1841.
Dear Sir,—l had the pleasure to receive in due time your
friendly correspondence and supply of Eye Snuff on the 15th
of August, also the 13th October last year ; however, from
my extraordinary increased consumption of your delightful
compound of herbs known as Grimstone's Eye Snuff, I take
the liberty of asking you to forward by first ship 1500 more
cases same as last. Sir,—l have enclosed you a bill, sixty
days' sight, Messrs. Pinto Perize and Co., Crutched-friars,
London. I further thank you for the appointment received
through the Spanish Consul, Don Pedro Ortiz de Zugasti,
at the court of Great Britain. Please to send the above
Snuff with all possible speed, with a large quantity of Spanish
testimonials. This article has become a favourite amongst
the first circles of nobility and gentry, both for its medicinal
and benign qualities. Indeed it appears to keep off diseases,
as well as cure them, if taken as other snuffs.—l remain, sir,
your most obedient servant, DON G. LOBE.

" To Mr. Grimstone, Inventor of Eye Snuff.

" sth December, 1840.
" Sir,—l have been a sufferer for seven years, both eyes
being so swollen as to cause blindness. Among the many
medical gentlemen who attended me was the famous oculist,
Dr. Alexander : indeed, I do believe my case was beyond all
their skill. Physic, bleeding, blistering, with a seaton, and
all kinds of lotions, but no relief,' till chancing one day being
led by your house, in 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, my
guide inquired if I had tried your Eye Snuff, on which I
purchased a is. 3d. canister, opened it in the shop, took
some, and was greatly relieved before I reached my home.
I can with truth assert, and make oath if required to do so,
that it was your Eye Snuff cured me. Shall be happy to
