INFIDELITY INEXCUSABLE. ONE
GOD : :
Infinite in Power, Wisdom, and Goodness. Proved by His
Works and by His Word, with the necessary inferences there-
from. By BARNETT BLAKE.
"This is a very well-written, closely-reasoned, and able argu-
ment. It is altogether highly creditable to the piety and ability
of the writer, and will well repay an attentive perusal."—Morning
Post.

"In its rapid survey of the wonders of Nature, it. gives evidence
of a well-stored mind, whilst the inferences which the author
deduces, both from the marvels of the universe and the doctrines
of Revelation, are expressed in terms which leave no doubt of the
purity of his intentions and the sincerity of his advocacy."-
-Ithenceum.

" it establishes the existence of the Deity in the first instance
by proofs independent of Revelation, and subsequently by evidence
derived from Holy Writ, and thus demonstrates what its title im-
plies, that the infidel is without excuse.' "—John Bull.
"A body of evidence so convincing and complete that it may
truly be said to leave infidelity inexcusable.'
Courier.

RUTH'S GLEANING SONG, Words and Music
by ANNE FRICKER (Authoress of "Fading Away," &c.)
2s.—" To say that this is a sweet song, fresh, flowing, and grace—
ful, is inde'd to say but part of the truth. The listener is thrown
into a trance as the exquisite melody mingles with the sentiment
of the poetry. He sees as it were the rich fields of Syria glowing
in lustrous sunlight. There are the gleaners; and there is the
youthful widow (the tale of whose tender sorrows we wept over
when we were children), picking up the scanty ears from the land
of her lost husband's wealthy kinsman. We hear her gentle
complaint : we feel brimming full of sympathy with her heroic
choice to remain on the holy soil, where she could cherish the
memory of her buried love, and worship his God. The only re-
Bret is that the beautiful illusion must terminate with the song.
The listener infallibly cries 'Sing on, sing on!' "

2OOOis 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,
racy of this unique p;eparation is the theme of admiration where-
ver introduced. It effectually prevents the hair falling oW 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.—
Bottles 2s. 6d.; double size 4s. 6d. ; 6d., equal to four small ;
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 bb
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 dea fly poisons, and until 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
