A FIRST CLASS SILVER MEDAL Has been awarded to Messrs. NYE & Co., at the Paris Universal Exhibition, 1855, for their Improved Patent SAUSAGE MAKING AND GENERAL MmciHG machime, For Private Families, Hotel Keepers, Pastrycooks, Pork Bntcliers, &c. The Press throughout the country have spoken in the highest praise of this little Machine. From among them we select the opinions of the two principal Journals. " Among other objects in the show worthy of special notice, we may mention the very ingenious Mincing Machine, exhibited by Nyk and Co.; it is extremely clever, and, for the mechanical skill which it displays, is eclipsed by nothing in the whole show."—Times, July 14th, 1853. " On Stand 12, we met with one of the gems of the yard, invented and manufactured by Nye and Co., of Wardour Street, Soho, London. This machine is for making Sausages, &c., mincing up, mixing, and at the same time forcing the meat into the skins; it will mince 81b. of meat in four minutes—it will also cut suet, vegetables for soup, &c. It may likewise be used for various other purposes. It is made of metal, very strong, durable, and compact, ani is particularly adapted for private families. Price £2. 2s. This is a little thing every husband ought to carry home to his wife, who we are satisfied will turn it to the best account, and save the price.—Mark Lane Express, August 15, 1854. This Machine will mince, mix the seasoning, and force into the skin at the same time. It cuts all kinds of Meats, Cooked or Uncooked, Forced Meats, Suet, &c. It will also cut Vege- tables for Soups, Fruit for Mincemeat, and it will be found useful in Mixing and Mincing for many other purposes, and, being all metal, does not absorb the juices of the meat, and is easily cleaned with boiling water. price £l 10g . £2 gg . £3 Sg Also a small MINCER for the DINNER TABLE, to assist DIGESTION, LOSS OF TEETH, &c. Price 30*. This machine is very neatly got up, and may be screwed on to the dining tabic without even injuring the cloih. The small Mincer used for the Dinner Table, will be found admirably adapted for small quantities, as in mincing one pound of meat it forces the whole of the meat out within one ounce, and even this may be obtained by passing a little bread through the Machine, thus rendering it the most useful and economical desideratum, either to the invalid or for the ordinary requirements of a family. The above Mincing Machines are admirably adapted for reducing meats for making soups according to the mode recommended by Professor Liebig, in his work " On the Chemistry of Food." The following is an extract from the Professor's work:— M When one pound of lean beef, free from fat, and separated from the bones, in a finely chopped state in which it Is used for beef sausages or mincemeat, is uniformly mixed with its own weight of cold water, slowly heated to boihng, and the liquid, after boiling briskly for a minute or two is strained through a cloth from the coagulated albumen and the fibrine, now become hard and horny, we obtain an equal weight of the most aromatic Koup, of such strength as can only be obtained by boiling for hours from a piece of fiesh. When mixed with salt, and other usual additions by which soup is usually seasoned, and tinged somewhat darker by means of roasted onions or burnt sugar, it forms the very best soup that can be prepared from one pound of flesh." BY HER MAJESTY'S ROYAL LETTERS PATENT, S. NYE'S PATENT IMPROVED COFFEE MILL. This Mill is most conveniently arranged for domestic use, it being provided with a cramp, by which it is fixed to the table in an instant, and as quickly removed, without injury to the table, or may be fixed to any other convenient place. 13 y a nice and safe arrangement the grinding surfaces cannot possibly touch each other. It is provided with a regu- lating screw, by means of which the Coffee is ground fine or coarse as desired. It grinds very rapidly, and is the be->t and most convenient Mill ever offered to the public. Prices : No. 1—8s.; No. 2—10s. ; and No. 3—14s. The large and rapidly increasing sale of these Mills, and the many Testimonials which have been received, is a guarantee that they only require to be known to secure their general adoption. S. NYE, INVENTOR, PATENTEE, AND MANUFACTURER, 79, WARDOUR STREET, SOHO, LONDON (W).
