Pure wego Starch,
(FoR THE Laundry
HAS established greater celebrity than has
III ever been obtained by any other starch.
This has been the result Of its marked superior
ity in quality, and its invariable uniformity
The public may be assured of the continuance
of the high standard now established.
The production is over Twenty Tons daily, and
the demand has extended throughout the whole
of the United States, and to foreign countries.
Working thus on very large scale, and under
n rigid system, they able to secure a perfect
uniformity III the quality throughout the year.
This is the great desderatum in Starch making,
aud is realized now for the first time.
The very best Starch that can be made and no
other is always wanted by consumers, aud this
will be supplied to them by the grocers, ms soon
as their customers have learned which is the best
and ask for it-otherwise they would be likely to
get that article which the largest profit can be
made.
Mr.. Kingsford has been engaged in the manu-
faeture Of Starch continuously for the last "a
years. and during the whole of the period, the
Starch made under his supervision has been, be-
yond any question, the best in the market. For
the first IL years, he had the charge of fireworks
of VIM. Colgate 4 Co., at which period he in
vented the process of the manufacture of Corn
Starch.

SWEaO CORN STARCH,
(FoR PUDDINGS, &c.,
Has obtained an equal celebrity with their Starch
for the Laundry. This article is perfectly pure,
and is, in every respect equal to The best Bermu
da Arrow Root, besides having additional quail
| ties which render it invaluable for the dessert.
Potato Starch has been extensively packed and
sold as Corn Starch, and has given false impress
sons to many, as to the real merits Of our Corn
Starch.
From its great delicacy and purity, it is COM
| ing also into extensive diet for infants
and inyalids.
