EEAS established greater celebrity than
AA has ever been obtained by any other
Starch.
This has been the result Of its marked su-
perlorty in quality, and its invarable uni
formty.
The public may be assured of the continu-
ance 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 10 foreign
countries.
Working thus on a very large scale, and
under rigid system; they are able 10 secure
aperIect and uniformity in the quality through
out The year. This is .he great Desideralum
in Sarch-making, and is realized now for
the first time.
The very best starch thalican be made, and
no other, is always wanted by consumers,
and while this will be supplied to them by
the grocers, as soon as their customers have
learned which is the besl, and ask for it
otherwise they would be likely 10 gel tha,
article on which the largest profit can be
made.
Mr. Kngsford has been engaged in the
manufacture of starch continuously for the
last 27 years, and during The whole of The
period, the starch made under his supervis-
ion has been, beyond any question, The best
IN the market. For The first II years he had
the charge OF The works OF VIM. Colgate &
Co, at which period he invented the process
OF the manufacture OF corn starch.

The undersigned, members of the Commit

two Safes originally agreed upon by Fauels

the Paymaster of the Philadelphia and Read

Safe manufactured by Evans s. Watson were
but slightly affected by the intense heat,
while. those taken from the Sale manufac-
