State the most of their glazing must con
denim, because it is only Lead, and Lead
dissolycs and poisens the apple butter.
can prove it by Doctors and Chemists that
Adams and York CO., Pottcrs sell such
ware through lhlS Statc, as call UNIT
Long experience in the best shops Of Eu-
rope learned to make the glazing dura-
bic, which forms glass, and in this country
wherever manufacture give me great
praise. In Mecanicstown and Winches-
ter Va, many persons may have lost their
health by such unfit glazing in ware SO
will caution pcrsC rs, who buy ware, to buy
your ware where you can rely that, the Pot
ter understands his business if you want to
be sure, of glazing durable and the clay
frcproof. Call for Lynn & Bachcr's ware
Of Mcchanicstown, and | am shurc the APP
pie butter in our crooks will prove good

in Glass and Lead. l say this not for the
dollars but it is my conscientious duty.
