MEDICAL ADVICE.
1)R. FRANKLIN, Member of the Royal College
of Surgeons, of the Faculte de Medecine de Paris, and
Honorary Member of the College of Physicians, Washington, and
author of several medical works, may be consulted daily on all
Diseases, Nervous Debility, &c.. &c., at his regdence, No. 4,
FRANCIS-STREET GOLDEN-SQUARE, LONDON.
Dr. FRANKLIN is one of the very few legally qualified physi-
cians who have directed attention to these diseases; from long
practical observation of the treatment pursued in the most cele-
brated institutions of this country and the coutinent. has had.
of witnessing, the various pecu-
liarities relating to the disorders; and having ror a number of
years devoted his studies almost exclusively to this class of com-
plaints, he is enabled confidently to undertake their removal in as
short a time as is consistent with safety. Dr. F., to distinguish
himself from non-qualified men, refers to his qualifications as
above, and he earnestly cautions the public against a host of
ignorant pretenders and rapacious Jew quacks, who infest• the
various seaports, and to make• strict inquiry before risking.life,
&c., in the hands of such empirics. A list of pretenders in Liver-
pool sent on application.

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 coughi-ng, after having taken only two boxes of
wafers. _ _ _ _ J. HAA•YEs.

Extract of letter from Mr.. Thomas Dean, 150, Scetiand-road,.
Liverpool.

Gentlemen.—l have great pletisure in communicating to you
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 Gold, and not
having taken care of herself, it settled upon her lungs. She

IMPORTANT TO ALL WHO SING..

From Mr. Edward Page, Director of the Choir and Organist of
St. Peter's Catholic Church, Leamington.

Gentlemen,—Raving 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 he com-
pletely exhausted, and the voice to be nearly gone, two or three
(at most four) will, in the short space of half an hour or so, com-
pletely restore its flexibility and power, atutthey do not act as a
mere temporary exciting remedy,nor do they leave any lassitude
after. Having felt the great va►ue of the remedy, I feel it a duty
to generally recommend it, as I. am.convinced that all persons
will find immense benefit from the general and persevering use of
it. EDWARD PAGE.

To SINGURS and PUBLIC SPEA,KERS they are invaluable, as in
a few hours they remove all hoarseness, and increase the power
and flexibility of the voice.. 'They have a pleasant taste.
