THE NEW WATERPROOF COD-
RINGTONS.

The Public may now obtain Waterproof Garments fit for
Gentlemen to wear. The above articles are in appearance
highly respectable, adapted equally to winter or summer,
for the chaise, saddle, walking, or travelling. This invention
for rendering all kinds of clothing Waterproof, WITHOUT
IMPEDING the ESCAPE of PERSPIRATION, is now
too well known and appreciated to need description or recom-
mendation. It was first introduced by W. Berdoe, who is con-
vinced that the process of the " British Waterproofing Com-
pany" is the best,and invites attention to the following ex-
tract of a letter reporting upon its efficiency from Colonel
Rowan, Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police :
" It rained the whole NINE hours I was on duty, and when I
toek off my great coat it was as dry inside as when I put
it on," &c.

A great variety of Waterproof articles, suitable for all
climates, seasons, and purposes ; also the new KANGAROO

CABINET UPHOLSTERY and BED-
DING, at the CABINET-MAKERS' TRADING
SOCIETY, 71, LEADENHALL-STREET, enrolled agree-
ably to Act of Parliament ; being the Manufacturers in all its
branches.

The system upon which this is conducted precludes the pos-
sibility of competition for cheapness, quality, and durability, as
no house in London can manufacture at their prices. The
Society wishes it to be thoroughly understood that they do not
receive hawked goods for sale, like the baracers and haber-
dashers, but they make every article themselves, which enables
them confidently to warrant their goods of the best materials,
and if any fault appears within twelve months, it will be made
good free of charge. A trial is earnestly solicited of those about
to furnish, as the only eriterion by which the merits and de-
cided advantage of purchasing at this establishment can be fairly
estimated.

The funds of this Society provide for the members in sick-
ness, old age, and burial ; they therefore sincerely hope that
their humble endeavours will meet with public patronage.
Estimates given, and orders punctually executed; and lists
of prices may be had, from which the following is an extract :
Mahogany lounging chairs, covered with leather, with spring
seats, 455. each ; mahogany chairs in horse-hair seating, 134. 9d.

SIGHT AND HEARING.
THE INVISIBLE OPERATIVE VOICE
CONDUCTOR, effected by the Messrs. S. and ,B.
SOLOMONS, Opticians and Aurists to the Royal Family, 39, Alba
marle-street, Piccadilly, by which thousands of deaf persons have
been greatly benefited,. is the size of a seven-shilling piece, and when
fixed into the cavity ot the ear is soft and easy, and not more pereep.
tibie than having
a piece of woo, in its place, by which the faintest
whisper at a public assembly is heard with distinctness. And defec.
tive VISION is brought to nature by the use of newly-invented
SPECTACLE LENSES immediately they are placed before weak
and imperfect eyesight, either by day or candle light, every object
becomesclear and distinct, and the most minute particle is seen with
great distinctness, by the use of which both the sight and hearing
become much improved.
The Messrs. SOLOMONS DISCLAIM all connection with persons
produced by the
of the SAME NAME, and the sale of Amber Spectacles: in doing
so they state the HISTORY of AMBER, from the Dictionary of
Arts
AmberandSiiesnacnesi'n' odfmAaittire
vegetable
gUetraeb,leMiuDc.,e,Fa.R.d.S..,o&tcp. 8
laws of crystallization, but by the same causes which influence the
mechanical condition of gum. Insects are often found embedded in
it. Amber is most powerfully electrical by friction—very hot, to
such an extent as to explode into fragments ; the workmen, too, are
subject to nervous tremours in their wrists, arms, ; they en.
counter great danger by handling such dreadful excited electrics ;
Amber grows, with lime, and is apt to take fire, and is of such a
soft nature when exposed to warmth that it swells, bubbles up, and
will burn away with flame."
The above Dr. Ure's statements are further confirmed by Sir D
BREWSTER and Pliny, as also by Parks and Heny on Chemistry.
Thedestructive effects of such a material for Spectacles, to imperfect
_vision, are fully and most satisfactorily explained in Messrs.
Curtis and Dollond's Second Edition on the Preservation of Sight,
and may be ascertained at any respectable Opticians in London.
The Messrs. Solomons' newly-invented Spectacle Lenses are not
constructed of such a material; but which are very superior, and
bring back at once dimness of sight and imperfect vision to its
original and natural state ; these Spectacles, and very small Voice
Conductors for Deaf persons, are only to be had at their Establish-
ment, 39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, oposite the York Hotel.
