SARSAPARILLA.

PRIESTLEY'S FLUID EXTRACT OF THE
FINEST RED JAMAICA SARSAPARILLA.
This most efficient and agreeable preparation of that
well-known and valuable alterative, JAM AIC A SARS A-
PA It A, is prepared by a peculiar and scientific
method ; and the experience of many years has fully established
the reputation of this medicine, as containing mere of the virtues
of the root than any other preparation. Its beneficial effects have
been particularly striking in the following complaints:—Noctur-
nal pains in the limbs, scrofulous enlargement of the glands, cu-
taneous affections, chronic rheumatism, &c. ,• in freeing the sys-
tem after a course of mercury, its beneficial effects are very power-
ful. It purifies the blood, and, by giving to the cutaneous vessels
a healthy and regular action, it removes that disposition to
erysipelatous inflammation from which so many persons periodi-
cally suffer ; and when taken in the spring and fall of the
year, as an alterative medicine, it will be found to impart that
strength to the constitution which is indicated by firmness of
flesh, good appetite, and freshness of the complexion.
N.B. To persons of a plethoric habit it is most invaluable, as it
thins and promotes a free circulation of the blood, thereby pre..
venting attacks of apoplexy.
Sold in bottles, 4s. 6d., 7s. 6d., 118., and 225., at 32, Lord-street.

limbs, and other parts of the body; oppression of the chest, indi-
gestion, redundancy of bile, dizziness of the eyes, violent pains in

BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS....
This preparation is one of the benefits which the science of
modern chemistry has conferred upon mankind; for during the
first twenty years of the present century to speak of a cure for
the Gout was considered a romance ; but now, the efficacy and
safety of this medicine is so fully demonstrated by unsolicited
testimonials from persons in every rank of life, that public
opinion proclaims BLAIR'S PILLS as one of the most important
discoveries of the present age; and in testimony of its efficacy,
JOHN J. GILES, Esq., of Frimley, near Bagshot, says :—" Having
suffered much from acute Rheumatism, I was induced to try your
Blair's Pills, and beg to bear my testimony to their efficacy."
Mr. W. TAvcon, bookseller, Warminster, Wilts, writes:—
`• Win. Penny, of Corton, Wilts, was afflicted with Rheumatism,
to such an extent that he could not move hand or foot; be was
recommended by a gentleman to try Blair's Pills, and accordingly
procured a box at Mr. Taylor's, from which he derived so much
benefit, that he sent for another, which effected a complete cure."
GARRETT FOSTER GILL, Esq., 157, New Bond-street, London,
writes:—" Whenever I feel any symptoms of Gout approaching,
I have instant recourse to this medicine, which to me is so valua-
ble that, were it not that the days of magic have ceased, I should
certainly attribute the relief I obtain to that cause. Moreover, I
rejoice to say that my health has not in any degree suffered ; but
on the contrary, I believe the tendency of Blair's Pills is towards
its improvement." '
These Pills require neither attention nor confinement, and are
certain to prevent the disease attacking any vital part; and in
consequence of the great and increasing demand for this useful
Medicine, the Proprietor has obtained permission from Her Ma-
jesty's Commissioners of Stamps to have the name and address of
" THOMAS PROUT, 229, Strand, London," impressed upon the
Government Stamp; affixed to each Box of the Genuine Medicine
Sold by all Vendors ofMedicine.

L2ooos offered to any person producing
'articles superior to the following. They are
patronised by Royalty and the most distinguished Families in
different parts of the world. During the last four years their ex-
traordinary efficacy has astonished thousands.
The Hair Restored, Baldness and Greyness Prevented by
BEETHAM'S CAPILLARY FLUID. The truly wonderful effi-
cacy of this unique preparation is the theme of admiration where-
ver introduced. It effectually prevents the hair falling off or
turning grey, promotes its growth on places that have been bald
for years, strengthens weak and fine hair, and gradually restores
its natural colour, without the use of dye. It cleanses the head
from scurf, and imparts a beautiful transparent, glossy appear-
ance, and keeps it in any desired form. In inducing the growth
of whiskers, eyebrows, mustachios, its effect is surprising.—

lls. to six small.

EASE AND COMFORT IN WALKING.—BEETHAM'S
CORN AND BUNION PLASTER.—This most important dis-
covery causes the greatest delight and astonishment wherever
it is introduced. Its effect, to use the words of numerous corres-
pondents, is truly miraculous ; the most inveterate Corns,
Bunions, and those unsightly and painful enlargements of the
GREAT TOE JOINTS, which disfigure the beautiful symmetry of
the foot, have been immediately relieved from all pain and uneasi-
ness. and in a short time entirely disappeared, after twenty
years' suffering. Unexceptionable references are allowed to be
given to individuals in almost every part of the United Kingdom.
—Sold in packets, Is. ; boxes, 2s. 6d. ; which will be sent free
to any part of the United Kingdom on the receipt of 14 or 34
postage stamps, by Mr. BEETHAM, Cheltenham, or any of his
Agents.
For removing Superfluous Hair, BEETHAM'S VEGETABLE
EXTRACT is the only article ever discovered which does not
cause pain or injury to the skin. Numerous worthless articles
are introduced, containing the most deadly poisons, and unfit to
be applied to the human body ; many of them remove the skin,
and produce dangerous wounds. The effect of this extract is
unerring, and gives the greatest satisfaction.—Packets, 55., sent

DR. AN T R OBUS'S PERSIAN HAIR
RESTORATIVE, AND HAIR DYE.
Under the immediate patronage of the Princes of Persia and India.
These Articles are without doubt the most extraordinary in their
powers ever submitted to the Public, and require but to be tried
to be appreciated, admired, and continued.
The RESTORATIVE strengthens the hair and prevents it
falling off after every other means have been resorted to unsuc-
cessfully ; it cures baldness and creates a natural curl, and by
its use myriads of persons of both sexes are indebted to having a
good head of hair at the present moment. Its efficacy is therefore
undoubted and the whole world is challenged to produce an
article to equal it, either for beautifying the human hair or pre-
serving it to the latest period of life. For the production of
Whiskers or Moustache it is infallible.

The qualities of the HAIR DYE are decidedly superior to any-
thing of the kind ever attempted, and the whole surface of the
head can be changed into a most natural black or brown, within
five minutes after using it, so as to defy detection from the greatest
connoisseur. _ -

Letter from Henry Vinson, Court Hair Dresser and Wig
Maker, of 124, Leadenhall street, London.

To DR. ANTROBUS.
Sir,—Your Hair Restorative is oneof the greatest blessings ever
invented. Several of my customers are enraptured with it, and
consider it beyond all praise. I cannot deny but that it has
appeared to me quite wonderful the alteration it causes after using
it for a few weeks; it excels anything of the kind I ever used,
causing a complete metamorphosis; giving the hair a natural
curl, and even entirely hiding grey locks.
You may depend upon it that it surpasses anything of the kind
ever brought before the public : and as to your Hair Dye, I can
sell all you can send me, it is so unquestionably good.—l am,
Sir, yours faithfully, HENRY VINSON.

Tlie Restorative is sold at Is. 6d., 2s. 61., and 4s. per bottle. The
Hair Dye, 3s. 6d. and 7s. per case. The larger sizes are a great

My DEAR Sin,—l have great pleasure in informing you that
my wife has received great benefit from the use of Keating's
Cough Lozenges, you recommended her a short time since.
Previous to this she had been troubled with a severe cough, and
was under some of our first medical men here without experi-
encing any relief; however, Keating's Lozenges have done
wonders.—With respect, believe me, yours faithfully,
THOS. MAYOR.

proved of the greatest service, and their use produced almost

RAPID CURE OF COUGH & DIFFICULTY OF BREATHING.

Hale, near Liverpool.
Sir,—l write to inform you of the great benefit I have received
from taking Locock's Wafers, which you recommended to me.
I was so much oppressed at my chest that when I lay down a
coughing fit came on with such violence that I have often thought
I should not live to see the morning ; but now I can sleep a whole
night without coughing, after having taken only two boxes of
wafers. J. HAYNEs.

ANOTHER CURE OF CONSUMPTIVE COUGH.
Extract of a letter from Mr. Thomas Dean, 150, Scotland-road,

Liverpool.
Gentlemen.-1 have great pleasure in communicating to yon
a case, (among many) which came under my own observation. A
lady, who I can refer to, in her assidious attendance upon her
husband during a long and fatal illness, caught cold, and not
having taken care of herself, it settled upon her lungs. She
was troubled with a dreadful cough, and every symptom of
consumption. She applied to her medical man, but did not
obtain any relief; when, upon the recommendation of a friend,
she tried Dr. Locock's Wafers, which, from the commencement,
eased her cough, and by continuing them she is perfectly cured.
(Signed) THOMAS DEAN.
ANOTHER CURE OF COUGH AND HOARSENESS.
Parliament-street, Liverpool.
Sir,—lt is with much pleasure I bear testimony to the extraor-
dinary powers of Locock's Wafers. I had been troubled with a
cough and hoarseness for nearly two years, without relief when I
was induced to try Locock's Wafers, the effects of which were
soon visible, for one large box (2s. 9d.) has quite cured me. I
have since recommended them to several of my friends, and they
have also experienced the greatest relief from them.
I remain yours, ever grateful, J. WILLIAMS.

From Mr. Edward Page, Director of the Choir and Organist of

Gentlemen,—Having frequently suffered much from relaxation
of the throat, I have often been obliged to resort to various pre-
parations; but since I have had the good fortune to try Dr.
Locock's Pulmonic Wafers, I am now but seldom obliged to re-
sort to them, for the extrordinary good effects they have produced
are most surprising. Even when the throat appears to be com-
