DEAFNESS AND DISTRESSING NOISES
IN THE EARS AND HEAD.

This day published, by a Physician of fifteen years' practice in
diseases of the Ear only, a Book, to be given away or sent by poet
to any part of the world, MODE of SELF-CURE for Count'',
Patients, by means of his new and infallible treatment, only dis-
covered within the last few weeks by Dr. MANFRED, Physician-
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 arid invaluable
ever made in Aural Surgery; and the same gentlemen have pur-
suaded Dr. MANFRED to give publicity to it, for the purpose of
saving the poor afflicted from the advertising quacks with assumed
titles, whose fraudulent advertisements area 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, M.R.C.5.,E.,
Physician and Consulting Surgeon to the Institution for the Cure
of Deafness, 84, Wimpole-street, Cavendish-square, London,
receives Patients as above, and applies his New Treatment every
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, from 11 until 3.—Poor, on
Monday and Thursday, between 6 and 8 in the Evening. 'Dr.
MANFRED hopes they will not refrain from seeking relief by
means of his recent discovery; and if confidence is required, Dr.
MANFRED will be happy to show thousands of letters from per-
sons cured, both rich and poor.

RUPTURES PERFECTLY CURED,
WITHOUT A TRUSS.—Dr. BARKER'S great European
Remedy for these alarming complaints has been successful in
curing thousands of cases during the last sixteen years, which
have been regularly published in quarterly reports. It is appli-
cable to every variety of single or double rupture, in either sex,
of any age, however bad or long standing, and causes no incon-
venience in its use whatever.

Sent free by post to any part of the world, packed so that no
one can know the contents, on receipt of is. 6d.' in Postage
Stamps, or Post-office Order, payable at the General Post-office,
to ALFRED BARKER, M.D., 25, Argyle-square, King's Cross,
London. Consultation hours daily (except Sundays), from eleven
till four o'clock. A copy of the last Quarterly Report, with
numerous cases and testimonials, will be sent gratuitously to any
one on receipt of two penny postage stamps to prepay it.
Hundreds of old trusses, belts, and bandages, have been left
behind by persons cured, as trophies of the success of this mode.
Extracts from bona fide Testimonials :—" I gave a poor
parishioner is. 6d. that he might avail himself of your aid, and
on meeting with him yesterday, he assured me he was cured."
Rev. W. M. Lincolnshire.—" The remedy you sent for my
mother has done her a great deal of good. and she feels altogether
cured." J. W., Sheffield.—" Sir, having used your remedy for
rupture, I find myself completely cured ; I bavetried every means
to prove the cure, by lifting and running, which I am happy to
say I can do without pain, or using any truss." "(ours, &c.,
F. W., Fife.—"l have received a perfect cure from the remedy
you sent me." H. T., Alford.—" I applied your remedy six
weeks ago, and it gives me pleasure to inform you that my rup-
ture has not been down since." D. L., Lynn.—" Your remedy
has cured my rupture; I have used violent exertion since, but
there is no sign of its coming down." Miss S., Bayswater.—
" Many thanks for your remedy ; I have thrown away my truss,
glad enough to get rid of the torture of it." G. H. Chepstow.—
" A fair time has elapsed since I used your ;remedy, moreover I
have beets examined by our surgeon, who declares I am quite
cured." J. P., Bath.—" My rupture being twenty-eight years
old, I never expected so perfect a cure." Mr. E., Longthorpe.—
" According to promise, I now write to tell you that my daughter
is perfectly cured by your treatment." Mrs. H., Uxbridge.
—"Enclosed is remittance for another. the last I had quite
cured the case I told you of." H. M. S., Surgeon, Edgeware-
road.—" My rupture has not been down since I used it."—
W. P., Lynn.

At2ooo is 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.—
Bottles 2s. 6d.; double size 4s. 6d. ; 7s. 6d., equal to four small;
Ils. to six small.

Eikiii4ls---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
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.
—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, BEETHANI'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
free for 65., by Mr. BEETHANI, Cheltenham.

1-)11. ANTPOIUS'S PERSIAN
RESTORATIVE, AND HAIR DYE.
li nder 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 Out to be tried
to be appreciated, admired, asd continued.
The RESTORATIVE strengthens the hair and presents 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, 0/124, Leadenkall -street, London.

To DR. A wraonus,
Sir,—Your Hair Restorative is one of 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. —I am,
Sir, yours - - faithfully, HENRY VINSON.

The Restorative is sold at Is. 6d., 2s. 61., and 4s. per bottle. The

-UNDER PATRONAGE OF ROYALTY, AND
THE AUTHORITY OF Tini FACULTY.

KEATING'S COUGH LOZENGES.

Upwards of Forty Years' experience has fully confirmed the
superior reputation of these Lozenges, in the cure of Asthma,
Winter Cough, Hoarseness, Shortness of Breath, and other
Pulmonary Maladies.
They have deservedly obtained the high patronage of their
Majesties the King of Prussia and the King of Hanover ; very
many also of the Nobility and Clergy, and of the Public generally,
use them, under the recommendation of some of the most
eminent of the faculty. Such medical testimony must be con-
vincing of their efficacy, as well as conveying the satisfactory
assurance of their freedom from any. opiate, or other injurious
anodyne. They may be safely administered to females of the
most delicate frame, and to very young children, for they not
only allay Cough and Nervous Irritation, but they sustain the
constitution, by promoting a healthy tate of the Digestive
'Organs. They have immediate influence over the following
cases :—Asthmatic and Consumptive Complaints, Coughs, Short-
ness of Breath, Hoarseness, &c., &c.

Prepared and sold in boxes, Is. lid., and tins, 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d.,
and 10s. 6d. each, by Thomas Keating, Chemist, &c., No. 79, St.
Paul's Churchyard, London. Sold retail by all uggists and
Patent Medicine Vendors in the world.
N.B.—To prevent spurious imitations, please to observe the
the words KEATING'S COUGH LOZENGES" are engraved
on the Government Stamp of each box, without which none
are genuine.
VALUABLE TESTIMONIALS.
Another instance of the good effects of Keating's Cough Lozenges,
upwards of twenty-one years%standing.
Liverpool, 6, Bold-lace, Jan. 26, 1848.
MY DEAR SIR,—I have great pleasure in informing you that
my wife bag 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.

Cure of Cough after attack of Influenza
Dover, 25th February, 1848.
Sitt,—Please to send to Messrs. Barclay and Sons for enclosure
another dozen of your excellent Cough Lozenges. Having lately
had a severe attack of influenza, attended with violent Cough, for
five days, preventing my lying down in bed, I made trial of your
Lozenges, and am happy to say, with the blessing of God, they
proved of the greatest service, and their use produced almost
intsantaneous relief. I give you this intelligence from a desire
that others might also be led to make the trial. I hope they will
experience the same result. Yours truly' 0. HAMBROOK.

BROMLEY'S PATENT EMPIRE SOAP,
which heretofore has been difficult to be obtained, as very
few of the grocers will keep it. To use their own words, by way
of explanation, they state,—" Were we to buy it, it would reduce
our sales fully one third, as two pounds of the Empire Soap will
go as far as three pounds of any other soap; we should also lose
our profit on soda and washing powders, as neither of these
articles are required when the Empire Soap is used, in either the
hardest water or in sea water." What the grocers are displeased
at in this soap is its strongest recommendation to the notice of
the large consumers, private families, hotel keepers, laundresses,
&c. It only requires to be used with a light hand. And besides
the above advantage it saves half the usual labour, consequently
less friction and wear in the clothes, and will not injure the
colours in the most delicate prints ; and is equally valuable for
every other domestic purpose, even for toilet use, as it is a pure
soap, free from rosin and other useless ingredients, which not
only add unnecessary weight to the soap but detract from its
cleansing, properties.
To be had wholesale at the Works, No. 22, Cherry-lane, and
from the following dealers :—Mr. Edward Davies, chandler, No.
84, London-road ; Messrs. Tasker and Price, 209, London.
road ; Mr. Jphn Dixon, grocer, No. 46, Pembroke-Place; Mr.

ship-store merchants, 28, Mason street ; Messrs. Buttner arid
Schonstadt, ship-store merchants, ii, Hurst-street; Mr. W. H.
Maitland, ship-store merchant, 45, Regent-street.
One Trial will prove the superiority of this soap.
