A DAMS'S IMPROVED SPECTACLES.
H. ADAMS, Optician and Spectacle Manufactu-er,
has the honour to announce his REMOVAL to the BAKER-
STREET, BAZAAR.
To those Ladies and Gentlemen who have already honoured
him with their patronage he nqw has the pleasure to return his
most sincere thanks, and to solicit a continacace of their kind
favours and recommendation.
The increasing sale of Adams's Spectacles proves their supe-
riority, the greatest attention being paid, not only to the excel-
lence of the Pebbles or Glasses, but, by his plan, the frames are
so adapted to the face that the centre of each Glass is brought
exactly opposite
.the pupil of the eye, which is of great im-

portance.
Telescopes, Opera-Glasses, and all kinds of Optical, Mathe-
matical, and Philosophical Instruments, of the most superior de-
scription, made to order. Charges xery moderate.
Observe the Address—Entrance Ffall, Bazaar, Baker-street,
Portman-square, London.

THE FREQUENT ROBBERIES OF
PLATE.
CAUTION.

It having been represented to RIPPON and BURTON that
several persons are vending a spurious metal as their NICKEL
SILVER BRITISH PLATE, they assure the Public that
the Genuine Article can only be had at the Warehouses, 12,
Wells-street, Oxford-street. The Nickel Silver British Plate
manufactured by Rippon and Burton, is, by a chemical process,
rendered superior to any other so called, in appearance and
durability ; it is equal to silver ; all the articles being solid and
of wrought material, they improve with use, and arc war-
ranted to stand the test of that strong acid aquafortis. The
following prices are named as a criterion :

CONDUCTOR, effected by the Messrs. S. and B.
soLOMONS, Opticians and Aui ists to the Royal Family, 39, Alhe-
marls-street, Piccadilly, by which thousands of deaf persons have'
bean greatly benefited, is the size of a seven.shilling piece, and when
fixed into the cavity of the ear is soft and easy, and not more percep.
rible than having a piece of wool 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
SPECTACI.E LENSES : immediately they are placed before weak
sad imperfect eyesight, either by thy or candle light, every object
becomes clear 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. SJLO MONS DISCLAIM all connection with persons
of the SAME NAME, and the sale of Amber Spectacles: in doing
so they state the HIS fORY of AMBER, from the Dictionary of
Arts and Sciences" of Andrew fire, M. 1)., 1.R.5., &c. Ste.
" Anal.er is en indurated vegetable ju ce, and net produced by the
laws of crystallization, but by the same causes which influence the
mechanical condition of gum. Insects arc often found embedded in
it. Anther 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, &c. ; they en-
counter great danger by handling such dreadful excited clectrica;
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
f.5..11,, LWSTEft and Pliny, as also by Parks and Heny on Chemistry.
