.IMPROVEMEAT .I.IY GENTLEMEN'S HATS.

TITIIEBARS-STREET, LIVERPOOL.

Grzirmotrxl —I have given your Patent Easy-fitting Hat a
fair trial, and I must say it is the most comfortable hat I ever
wore, particularly when crossing the water in a windy day,
when with the old style of hat I invariably had a headache,
which with your new style is not the case_ I can, therefore,
safely recommend it to any one, particularly to those subject
to headache.—l am, gentlemen, yours truly.

I have 'Worn for some time one of the Patented Easy-fitting
Hats sold by Mr. —, and I can testify to the advantage
derived from the absmee of that unpleasant pressure, particu-
larly on the forehead, usually felt from the hats generally worn.
--- House, Cheltenham. (Signed)
This letter is from a first-rate English admiral. The name
is not'given for obvious reasons.
NOTICE.—Five Pounds Itewarq upon conviction of an in-
fringement of my Patent.
Sinmson'L Patent Easy-fitting Hats are on.; • had in
Liverpool at No. 6, §t. George's-crescent (two doors from the
top of Lord-street}, and at 9, Dale-street (opposite' Royal Bank
Buildings), and in upwards of one hundred other towns, a list
of which would make this advertisement too long. The Agents
.n each place make themselves known.

PLAYING CAnns,—llitherto the Keenly contested whist
Cribbage; 100, &c. exhausted the use of the playing card.
Now, however, the beautiful, instructive, and chaste designs
imparted to their exterior teach the form, colour, and growth
of planta which hare enriched the commerce of Great britain.
Those manufactuted by De la Rue and Co., are peculiarly rich
in design, and can be had in great variety at Benson and Mal-
ICU's, commercial stationers, 10, Castle-street.

HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.—Puce Blood. As this vital fluid, when
in a .healthy state, su-tains and renovates every part of the
living system, but when it becomes impoierished, or impure
exerts a precisely contrary effect, it is abtindantly manifest
that any medicine failing to reach the circulation can never
exterminate disease ; but any preparation capable of exercising
a sanitary influence over the blood must with it be carried to
every living fibre of the frame. The lungs, heart, liver,
kidneys, and skin, all receive benefits from its mote wholesome
condition. Holloway's Purifying Pills operate directly,
powerfully, and beneficially upon the whole mass of i;2ood,
whether venous or arterial. They strengthen the stomacia,
excite the liver and kidneys, expel diseases, and prolong
existence.

NEW INVENTION.—THE NEW FOMITAIN PEN.—A greater
annoyance than a bad steel pen can hardly be met with—the
difficulty is-to get a good one. Amongst the recent improve.
ments the new "fountain pen," just introduced by itudhall
and Co., is the best we have ever seen. By a simple but effec-
tive contrivance the ink is retained in a fountain, by means of
a second inverted barrel, above the writing nib, and this barrel
can be taken out at any time, so no pen can be kept perfectly
clean w.thout any chance of being corroded. Another feature
in this pen is, that one din in the ink will last for five minutes'
quick writing. The pen itself is of the finest description, and
in merchants' offices, banks, and indeed in every place, it will
be found to fill a want felt by every one up to this time. We
have tried this splendid pen, handed to us by Mr. E. T. Hall,
South John-street, and can pronounce it perfect, and we are
',ere all who use it will give a full verdict in its favour,

Our readers have only to send their address to L. E. Perrier,
77, Regent-street, W., London, and they will receive, free by
post, 105th edition of the " INVALID'S OWN GUIDE," or
natural restorer without medicine or expense of perfect diges-
tion, strong nerves, sound lungs and refreshing sleep to the
most enfeebled, effectually removing indigestion (dyspepsia),
nausea, and sickness, even during pregnancy, debility, ner-
vousness, palpitation, cough, asthma, incipient consumption,

successful cures which had resisted all medical treatment, and

CONSUMPTION, COUGH, ASTHMA, AND BRONCIIITIR CURABLE

most irritating cough Ina few minutes;
and, although it contains 710 preparation of opium, it induces
sound and refreshing sleep, soothes the nervous system, and
restores the healthy action of the lungs." Recommended above
all other medicines by Sir Alexander Tralles—see Thomson's
Materia Medico, page 175, vol. 2. The following is from Dr.
Brett, the eminent chemist I consider the balsam of hore-
hound and aniseed, as prepared by Mr. Martin, an elegant.
and efficient cough remedy, and I fully agree with sir Alexan-
der Tralles and Dr. Anthony Todd Thomson, that, in conjunct
tion with cod liver oil, it is lin admirable remedy for con-
sumption and delicate constituttons."—R. H. Brett, Ph. Dr.,
M.R.C.S., late Lecturer on Chemistry and Medical Jurispru
dente, Liverpool Royal Infirmary. The balsam of horehound
and aniseed is prepared only by T. Martin, chemist, 22, Cop-
peras-hill; Liverpool ; but, owing to its great and increasing
sale, agents have been appointed in all principal towns ant;
cities. It can be procured Wholesak from Raimes and Co.„
Edinburgh and York, from Sutton and Co., London, West-
macott, Manchester, and wholesale and retail from the manu-
facturer, as above. Price, Is. 10., 2s. 9d., and 4s. 6d. each.

INFANT-REARING.—Miss Martineau, who, like all philoso-
phical ladies, has studied the matter thoroughly, says, that
"in England alone, 40,000 babes die annually; and cue-third
more of that number grow up either idiotic, sickly, or de-
formed." The reason is evident, as mothers, through inability
to nurse their offspring, resort to the administration of baked
flour, biscuits, tops-and-bottoms,or pap. The infant stomach,
cannot assimilate such crude preparations, and frequently
rejects them; but still the nurse or mother continues them,
under the hope of soothing the child. Internal inflammation
place—eructations, diarrhoea, and consumption appear—and.
most frequently convulsions are induced which seal the infant's
fate. The Medical Times and Gazette, August 28, 18.58,
p. 215, conveys Dr. C. B. F. Routh's views on the same im-
portant subject, and his opinion of Du Barry's Revalenta.
Arabica Food, as adapted to obviate the mischief effectually..
Dr. Routk is physician to the Samaritan Hospital for Women
and Children. This learned and experienced practitionersays
"The human milk contains, besides salts of lime, chloride of
potassium. Now, in common with carbonic acid, this salt
enjoys the peculiar property of dissolving carbonate of lime
or chalk. An absence of it in the food, as in wheat bread, :s
very injurious to a growing child ; hence, a child fe..: on pap
for a time grows fat, but the bones are soft; frequently it
sickens, and severe symptoms supervene. Amongst the vege-
table substances, that which comes closest to mi.k in its com-
position, besides more easily assimilated and strengthen-
ing, is, without doubt, Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica Food,
containing both phosphoric acid in abundance, and chloride of
potassium; it also includes caseine, the same principle which
is found in milk in its constituent parts. No wonder, there-
fore, that under its influence many children affected with
atrophy (wasting away of the body) and marked debility
have completely recovered. I have given it with the greatest
advantage in such cases; and, so far as I may judge from my
own experience, practice fully carries out what theory, from a
knowledge of its composition, led ua to anticipate. It gives
good muscle and strengthens the bones, restoring tone, and a
healthy, regular action to the stomach and' bowels, whether
constipation or a relaxed state of the system is complained of.”
