Parents and Guardians, in purchasing Sweets, should he careful to see that they get a pure article, as those imported have been proved, by analysis, to contain adulterations of a very injurious nature. Vide the following : Professor Black reports upon 14 Samples Lumb from various Confectioners in Dunedin for analysis, and of which the following is a resume: — "Fourteen Samples obtained from various Confectioners in Dunedin. "Nos. 419 to 432 Sweets are all objectionable, owing to the large quantity of Sulphate of Lime or other earthy matter they contain. The colouring matter is also objectionable, being partly Prussian Blue. I consider these sweets far inferior in quality to those of local manufacture which I have analysed." Professor Black again reports upon 20 Samples taken by Inspector Lumb from the Manufactory of MESSES. R. HUDSON AND CO., As follows : "Nos. 359 to 37S.—These Sweets do not contain Plaster of Paris, Sulphate of Lime, Starch, Flour, or any objectionable colouring matter, or any deleterious ingredients. The absence of Plaster of Paris, or any objectionable colouring matter, recommends them strongly. They are, in my opinion, a very superior article, skilfully manufactured, and should take a good position in the market."

Price Lists and Professor Black's report to be obtained at the Factory (Masonic Hall), Dunedin. 344 fcUNEDIN UNIVERSITY LABORA1J TORY. CLASS: FARINACEOUS FOOD MANUFACTURED BY . HUDSON AND CO., This prepared Food contains in due proportions all the essentials of good nutritious food. The ratio of the nitrogenous or fleshforming constituents to the non-nitrogenous or heat-producing and respiratory ingredients being 1 to 5.7 is such as is recognised by the highest authorities as very satisfactory. The inorganic salts found in the ash are those which are always present iu good wheat flour, and are necessary constituents of food. The percentage of sugar is a little higher than is usually found in wheat flour. This, however, is no disadvantage, and is due probably to the process of manufacture. 1 consider that your mode of preparation gives it the advantage over unprepared flour of retaining its sweetness for a longer period, and resisting more effectually the deleterious influence of a damp climate. On the whole I can recommend your preparation as a very digestible, wholesome, and nutritious article of food; these good qualities will doubtless secure for it a large demand amoncr all classes of the community.

I am, gentleman, Your obedient 3ervant, J. G. BLACK, M.A., D. Sc, Professor of Chemistry, UaiYereity of Otago. 344
