This Company has discovered means for the effectual and economic supply of pure , soft , and wholesome water to the entire metropolis , and confidently anticipates for their plan the approbation both of the public and the Legislature . The districts to be supplied contain on a rough estimate more than 200 , 000 houses which are either partially or wholly unsupplied with water , entailing on the inhabitant ? great miseries , and on the public at large vast social wrong . The houses in the suburban parishes are increasing at the rate of fifteen hundred per annum , offering' to that extent a prospect of yearly increase to the Company ' s business , besides that which will arise from the greater cheapness and softness of its water . In addition to its own independent labours , the Company will be prepared to supply the existing companies with pure soft water in lieu of the hard unwholesome water which they are at present compelled to distribute .

William Smith , of No . 0 , Little Thomas-street , Gibson-street , Lambeth , dated Dec . 12 , 1840 . " To Professor Holloway , " Sir , —1 beg to inform you that for nearly five years I hardly knew what it was to have a day ' s health , ( Suffering from extreme weakness and debility , with constant nervous headaches , giddiness , and sicKness of " the stomach , together with a great depression of spirits . I used to think that nothing- could benefit me , as I had been to many medical men , some of whom , after doing all that was in their " power , informed me that they considered that I had some spinal complaint beyond the reach of cure , together with a very disordered state of the stomach and liver , making my case so complicated that nothing could be done for me . One day , being unusually ill and in a dejected state , I saw your Pills advertised , and resolved to give them a trial , more perhaps from curiosity than with a hope of being cured , however 1 soon found myself better by taking them , and so I went on persevering in their use for six months , when I am happy to say they effected a perfect cure , " ( Signed ) WILLIAM SMITH , "( frequently called EDWARD . )" Sold at the Establishment of Professor Holloway , 214 , Strand ( near Temple liar , ) London , and by most all respectable Druggists and Dealers in Medicine throughout the civilized World , at the following prices—Is . 14 d ,, 2 s . 9 d ., 4 s .

"Ah I in what penis is vain life engaged I What slight neglects—what trivial faults—Destroy the hardiest frame . " Disease has been designated , as truly as poetically , the " sad heritage of humanity . " We are , in fact , both by our organization and our habit 3 , alike subjected to its blighting influence . Too frequently are we induced , through our social position , to " press the poisoned chalice to our lips , " swallowing with the lucious draught the germ * of future suffering' and distress . There are , perhaps , no orsjans in the body whicti suffer so mucli from frequent disturbance of their functions as those of digestion , and none in which the tone of the stomach is sooner weakened . By the remarkable power of sympathy , morbid phenomena of the most diversified character are propagated throughout the endless chain of nervous communication , occasioning those peculiar symptoms so well understood by the dyspeptic sufferer . To those , therefore , who suffer from indigestion , bile , sick headache , acidity in the stomach and bowels , heartburn , flatulency , spasms , &c , COCKLE'S ANTIBILIOUS PILLS will be found invaluable . Maybe had of all medicine venders , in boxes , at Is . l < Jd ., 2 s . 9 d ., and 4 s . 6 d . ; of whom also may be had COCKLE'S INFLUENZA and COUGH LOZENGE , a most eflicacioup , safe , and ngreeable preparation for the relief and cure of influenza , colds , coughs , hoarseness , chronic bronchitis , ifthma , &c , complaints which are so troublesome and peculiarly harassing at the present season .
