Aurist. Thousands in this short space of time have been restored
to perfect hearing, without absence from home or causing the
least pain'or inconvenience to the most aged or nervous sufferer,
although having been deaf for twenty or thirty years; many are
enabled, almost instantaneously, to hear a whisper. This dis-
covery has been proclaimed by all the head Physicians and Sur-
geons of London, to be one of the most miraculous and invaluable
ever made in Aural Surgery ; and the same gentlemen have pur-
snarled Dr. MANFItIf.D to give publicity to tt, for the purpose of
saving the poor afflicted from the advertising quacks with assumed
titles, whose fraudulent advertisements are a disgrace to the press,
their only desire being to plunder the afflicted •, and, in doing so,
many hundreds are rendered incurable for life through their entire
ignorance of the treatment. Doctor MANFRED,' N1.R.C.5.,E.,

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
BRETHAM'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.—

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 Tof JOINTS, ‘vhich disfigure the beautiful symmetry of
thefoot, 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.

For removing Superfluous Hair, 13KETHAM'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 holly; 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

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 Ragshot, 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. WILLIAM COURTNEY, of Barton Stacey, Hants, says :
"Having suffered much from Gout, I had resort to Blair's Pills,
and within two hours I was suite easy. The use of these Pills
ought really to be known all over the world."
Mr. W. TAYLOR, bookseller, Warminster, Wilts, writes :
" Win. Penny, of Gorton, Wilts, was -afflicted with Rheumatism,
to such an extent that he could not more hand or foot; he volts
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 effecteda 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 arc
certain to prevent the disease attacking any vital part; and in
consequence of the great and increasin; demand for this useful
Medicine, the Proprietor has obtained permission from Her Ma-
esty's Commissioners of Stamps to have the name and addressor
"THOMAS PROUT, 229, Strand, London," impressed upon the
Government Stamp, affixed to each Box of the Genuine Medicine
