Saray ope {DRINKING PGISONGUS LE@UORS! PATENT IEPROVED PROCESS For Making Kinds of Liquors and Vinegar, Instantly, by the use of LACOUR’S ESSENTIAL OILS. These Oils are obtained by Distillation at the Chemical Laboratory, Parish of Jefierson, of Pierre Lacour, author of Lacour’s Chemical Analysis Laccour’s Chemical Manipulations, Lacour on the Manufacture of Liquors, &c. Purchasers are particularly requested to return the flasks,and obtain their money, if the Oil does not give perfect satisfaction. LACOUR’S OIL OF COGNAC converts neutral spirit toa superior imitation of Imported Brandies, viz : Otard, Sazerac, Marett Cognac, Poultney, Seignette, United Vineyard Proprietors, Castillion and London Dock Brandies. These liquors will have a full fruity fiavor and a beantiful, sparkling color. Common Rectified Whisky will be changed by the use of the Oil of Cognac to New York Brandy, Pine Apple Brandy, Common Cognac Brandy &e. “LACOUR’S O1L OF RYE changes Reetified Whisky to Monougahela Rye Whisky, Old Virginia Malt Whisky, Bonrben-Whiskey, &c. OIL OF CEDRAT changes common Rectified Whisky to Old Irish Malt Whisky, anda superior article of Scotch Whisky. OJ1, OF PEACH changes common Whisky to Virginia Peach Brandy, &e. Oilof Peach and Oil Cognac will convert eommon Whisky to Apple Brandy. OIL OF GIN converts the poorest Whisky to Holland Gin, Scheidam Schnapps,Rose Gin, Swan Gin, English Gin, &c. LACOUR’S CONCENTRATED ACID will, in five hours after being mixed, change five gallons of good Vinegar and twenty-five gallons of water to thirty gallons of the most acid Vinegar that can be found in the market. By the use of Lacour’s Concentrated Acid, vinegar can be made for one dollar and sixty cents per barrel. FOR MAKING LIQUORS, Lacour’s Oils require no preparation—only pour the oilinto the whiskey and shake well. The liqvors thus made will have a fine natural aroma, a full, rich, oily taste; a beautiful traneparent color and a fine bead. Lacour’s oils exert three distinct properties in converting common whisky to brandy, gin, &c. The first property combines with and subsides in the form of fioculent particles the whole ef the grain oil, (Amylic Alcohol. )— The whisky is thus deprived of that peculiar irritating and burning taste, and becomes a neutral spirit ; the second property consists in an oily mucillaginous taste imparted to the liquor which renders it mellow, andimparts an appearance of great age; the third . property is exhibited in the rich vinous nutty odor that is imparted to the liquor, which renders distinction from the genuine brands impossible. These oils are put up in quart flasks; each flask contains sufficient oil for making three hundred gallons of liquor. Full and comprehensive directions accompany the bottles. Price $2 per bottle. For sale at the corner of St. Charles and Poydars atreets. One bottle of-these oils, five in number, will be securely packed and shipped, with bill of lading, to any partofthe country, upon the receipt of $10, to the address of P. LACOUR New Orlens. Purchasers are requested, asa guarantee of good faith, to furnish us the name of any house in New Orleans and we will ship them a package of the Oils. If they do not perform all that is claimed for them, they will cost nothing. Lacour’s Comcentrated Acid for making VINEGAR, is put upin 2 gatlon packages at $5 per package—in good shipping order. 18-ly Z. P. DAVIS, GUNSMITH, SPRING ST., NEVADA.

Saray ope {DRINKING PGISONGUS LE@UORS! PATENT IEPROVED PROCESS For Making Kinds of Liquors and Vinegar, Instantly, by the use of LACOUR’S ESSENTIAL OILS. These Oils are obtained by Distillation at the Chemical Laboratory, Parish of Jefierson, of Pierre Lacour, author of Lacour’s Chemical Analysis Laccour’s Chemical Manipulations, Lacour on the Manufacture of Liquors, &c. Purchasers are particularly requested to return the flasks,and obtain their money, if the Oil does not give perfect satisfaction. LACOUR’S OIL OF COGNAC converts neutral spirit toa superior imitation of Imported Brandies, viz : Otard, Sazerac, Marett Cognac, Poultney, Seignette, United Vineyard Proprietors, Castillion and London Dock Brandies. These liquors will have a full fruity fiavor and a beantiful, sparkling color. Common Rectified Whisky will be changed by the use of the Oil of Cognac to New York Brandy, Pine Apple Brandy, Common Cognac Brandy &e. “LACOUR’S O1L OF RYE changes Reetified Whisky to Monougahela Rye Whisky, Old Virginia Malt Whisky, Bonrben-Whiskey, &c. OIL OF CEDRAT changes common Rectified Whisky to Old Irish Malt Whisky, anda superior article of Scotch Whisky. OJ1, OF PEACH changes common Whisky to Virginia Peach Brandy, &e. Oilof Peach and Oil Cognac will convert eommon Whisky to Apple Brandy. OIL OF GIN converts the poorest Whisky to Holland Gin, Scheidam Schnapps,Rose Gin, Swan Gin, English Gin, &c. LACOUR’S CONCENTRATED ACID will, in five hours after being mixed, change five gallons of good Vinegar and twenty-five gallons of water to thirty gallons of the most acid Vinegar that can be found in the market. By the use of Lacour’s Concentrated Acid, vinegar can be made for one dollar and sixty cents per barrel. FOR MAKING LIQUORS, Lacour’s Oils require no preparation—only pour the oilinto the whiskey and shake well. The liqvors thus made will have a fine natural aroma, a full, rich, oily taste; a beautiful traneparent color and a fine bead. Lacour’s oils exert three distinct properties in converting common whisky to brandy, gin, &c. The first property combines with and subsides in the form of fioculent particles the whole ef the grain oil, (Amylic Alcohol. )— The whisky is thus deprived of that peculiar irritating and burning taste, and becomes a neutral spirit ; the second property consists in an oily mucillaginous taste imparted to the liquor which renders it mellow, andimparts an appearance of great age; the third . property is exhibited in the rich vinous nutty odor that is imparted to the liquor, which renders distinction from the genuine brands impossible. These oils are put up in quart flasks; each flask contains sufficient oil for making three hundred gallons of liquor. Full and comprehensive directions accompany the bottles. Price $2 per bottle. For sale at the corner of St. Charles and Poydars atreets. One bottle of-these oils, five in number, will be securely packed and shipped, with bill of lading, to any partofthe country, upon the receipt of $10, to the address of P. LACOUR New Orlens. Purchasers are requested, asa guarantee of good faith, to furnish us the name of any house in New Orleans and we will ship them a package of the Oils. If they do not perform all that is claimed for them, they will cost nothing. Lacour’s Comcentrated Acid for making VINEGAR, is put upin 2 gatlon packages at $5 per package—in good shipping order. 18-ly Z. P. DAVIS, GUNSMITH, SPRING ST., NEVADA.
