"TMPERIAL SCHIEDAIVx SCHNAPP ; : ' , Dr. Hassall's Report. The Analytical and Sanitary Institution 54 Holborn Viaduct, JEC.C. London, 9th May, 1877. Report'on a Sample of Imperial Schieaam Scb. napps, received from Mr. H. J. Hart. We have subiected a sample of the above named article to a very careful chemical analysis and examination. The results of the analysis, which are set forth in a separate report, show that this spirit is of good strength, practically free from acidity, and that it contains but traces of solid matter in solution. It possesses a delicate and agreeable aroma, and a pure and mild taste. Mr. Hart's Schiedam Schnapps is a very superior article of its class, is well purified, arid quite genuine. (Signed) Arthur H. Hassall, M.D. Author of " Food Adulteration." HicNKXt, F.C.S. Physicians. &?&s®>v iii£LttD iHiiiinilir As ?^S^#^ Ihßi IH|l Wm. Johnsons Keport. Government Analytical Laboratory, Melbourne, 23rd July, 1877. Henri J. Hart, Esq. SirAlhave the honour to report for your in formation that the sample of Imperial Schiedam Schnapps forwarded by you to mo has been sub mitted to a searching chemical analysis ana critical examination, the result of which enables me to state that it is the Finest Sample of Schnapps that has as yet come under my notice. It has a pure fragrant odour, and isabspmtely free from any trace of fusil or other im urious impurity, and has evidently been distilled from superior rye grain, always used instead of malt in the production of the choicest qualities of Schnapps. It is very smooth to the palate, and in this respect compares favourably with other samples offered for sale. It may be advised as equally suitable for medical or- economic pur poses.

Two important points should not be lost sight of in selecting a Sewing Machine, First i Be not misled by long and extravagant puffs in the papers about Machines which are frequently made only to sell, and more frequently sold by those who, from their want of mechanical know ledge, can only parroWike repeat the puff. 2nd: Beware of purchasing a Sewing Machine because it happens to be a few shillings cheaper, and nave afterwards^ to pay dearly for it in worry, delay, and vexation.
