P LENFIELD STARCH, exclusively used \JT in the Royal Laundry, By special appointment, Starch Purveyors to her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales. The best proofs of the great superiority of this Starch are the numerous distinguished m irks of approval which have been accorded to it from all quarters j amongst which may be mentioned the following, viz.— It is exclusively used in the Royal Latindry, and her Majesty's laundress says it is the finest Starch she ever used. Honorable mention was awarded at the Great Exhibition in London, in 1851. A prize medal was awarded for it at the New York Exhibition in 1853 ; and a prize medal was also awarded for it at the International Exhibition in London, 1862. Her Majesty's lace dresser says that it is the best she has tried ; and hundreds of grocers, &c, say that it pleases their customers better than any other, and perhaps the most striking proof of all is, that notwithstanding the great depression in the cotton manufacturing trade, which influences the Starch trade materially, the Glenfleld Starch has continued to increase rapidly. The manufacturers have every confidence in asserting that if those ladies and laundresses who do not regularly use this Starch would disregard the advice of interested dealers, who are allowed extra profits on inferior articles, and give it a fair trial, they would then feel satisfied with the very superior finish which it imparts to laces, linens' muslins, &c, the great saving of trouble in its application, and the entire absence of disappointment with the results, and would for the future, like the Queen's laundress, use no other. To be had of all respectable Grocers, Druggists, Oilmen, &c, &c, and wholesale of the manufacturers, ROBERT WOTHERSPOON & CO, Starch Purveyors to her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales ; and manufacturers of Wotherspoon's Victoria Lozenges, which were awarded a prize medal for purity and excellence of quality at the International Exhibition of 1862. 46 Donlop street, Glasgow ; and 66 Queen street, London, B.C.
