Another quality of the Elastic Spine Supporter is, that it snengthena the muscles which connect the scapulas with the Spine.in cases where they may have been weakened by improper in. strunienta, cr from natural causes. While supporting the back, and eaten.inn to the thorax, it counteracts the predisposition to comumptitin, so prevalent in our variable climate among persons in the earlier stages of life. To those young Gentlemen who, from constant application at the desk and other sedentary employment, frequently deform their per sonal appearance, by contracting the muscles of the chest, and con sequently producing round shouldent. the Elastic Spine Supporter will be found to counteract such an effect, as, on the body resuming an erect posture, it restores the shoulders to their proper position, and thus prevents a disfigurement which habit might confirm. It Is particularly recommended to those who have the charge or vonng Ladies or fientlemen, from the age of eight years and up *anis, the Elastic Spine Supporter giving a natural ease and elegance to the carriage.

DIXON'S ANTIBILIOUS PILLS (Which do not mutate Mercury in any shape) have met with more general ap proval than any other Medicine whatsoever. They unite every re- I ...nninendation of mild operation with successful effect ; and require la s i restraint or confinement whatever during their use. In tro ,iteal climates, where the consequences of redundant and viti- , .. , ed bile are so prevalent and alarming, they are an invaluable .nd efficient protection. They are likewise peculiarly calculated to 'meet disorders arising from excesses of the table, to restore the ~ .re it the stomach, and to remove most complaints occasioned by Irregularity of the bowels. ffidd in Boxes, at 21.9 d.; 46.61; I la.; and 225, by Butler, Cites mitt*, 4, Cheapside, corner of it.

SOLOMON'S Celebrated CORDIAL BALM of G I LEA D, which is highly esteemed for nourishing and In vigorating the nervous system, and acting as a general restorative on debilitated constitutions. By its use the cold and tremulous nerves are warmed and steadied ; the relaxed fibres, or soft flabby flesh. braced and rendered firm ; the muscles are invigorated, and the exhausted vessels replenished. Females and the studious, as well as the sedentary part of the commutil, should not be without the Cordial Balm of Gilead, which ronovi s diseases in the head, invigorates the mind, improves the memory, and enlivens the imagination ; revives and exhilarates the languid drooping spirits, promote digestion, and braces the nerves. The virtues of the Cordial Balm of Gilead are daily demon. iterated, in eradicating the most distressing symptoms of nervous debility ; but nothing has tended more to establish the fame of this medicine, then its certain success in those complaints resulting from the vicious practices of thoughtless youth, which strike their roots deeply in the constitution, and are so fatal to the happiness of man. kind. By taking this medicine according to the directions the de plorable symptoms of disease gradually disappear, and strength, serenity, and every evidence of renovated health are the happy result.
