Its healing virtues only try!

Their Wounds are cured, their pains removed. And FRANCIS’S HEALING OIL approved. All Female Breast disorders cured, The pains removed, though long endured; And Worms in Children soon destroy’d, And strength, and health, again enjoy’d. A Bottle buy, and only try, And all such plagues shall from you fly!

C. S. in thanking the public of the vicinity for their approbation of his Press,—a patronage the more flattering from its continued increase,—respectfully intimates that he has made that encouraging success a basis of more extended operations, by considerably increasing the materials necessary to the creation of an efficient typographical Establishment; at the same time believing those additional efforts will win the desired response anticipated from past friends, and commanding the confidence of many who have not yet tested his capacity, will result in the acquisition of prospective and satisfied customers.

CHEMISTS’ COUNTER BILLS.

Extreme attention is paid in the execution of this necessary appendage to the Chemist’s counter; their requisite neatness and elegance is ever maintained by the employment of new and modern type, selected from Foundries famed for securing the skill of eminent designers; while economy in charges is considered, so as to obtain a preference over Metropolitan Offices.

Epsom Salts & other Wrappers, Labels, &c.

BAKERS & COWKEEPERS’ WEEKLY BILLS.

From the great numbers constantly being printed, C. S. is enabled to supply them far below their usual charges.

CARDS.

This indispensible requisite of the trader, may be obtained, on fine machine-made fabric, at 1s., 1s. 3d., and 1s. 6d. per Hundred. On large numbers a very great reduction is made.

CIRCULARS.

Printed on beautiful cream laid post, ready folded, well pressed, and the edges made smooth, at 3s. per hundred; five hundred 10s., and one thousand 16s.

BILL HEADS.

The constant consumption of this commodity necessitates the commercial man to seek their supply from the ‘cheapest market’ this he can accomplish by using invoices printed by C. S. Their variety of size and quality of paper, renders their statement of prices an almost impossibility.
