TEETII.—By her Majesty's Royal Letters
Patent.—Newly-invented and Patented Application f Che
rnically-prepared White India-rubber in the constru-nion of Artificia
Teeth, Gums, and Palates.—Mr. EPHRAIM MOSELY, Surgeon-
Dentist, 61, Grosvenor-street, Grosvenor-square, Sole Inventor and
Patentee.—A new, original, and invaluable invention, consisting in
the adaptation, with the most absolute perfection and success, of
CHEMICALLY-PREPARED WHITE INDI .I:RWII3ER as a lining
to the ordinary gold or bone frame. The extraordinary results of
this application may be briefly noted in a few of their most promi-
nent features, as the following !—All sharp edges are avoided ; no
springs, wires, or fastenings are required ; a greater increased free-
dom of suction is supplied ; a natural elasticity hitherto wholly un-
attainable: and a fit, perfected with the most unerring accuracy, are
secured, while from the softness and flexibility of the agent em-
rloyed, the greatest support is given to the adjoining teeth when
loose, or rendered tender by the absorption of the gums. The acids
of the mouth exert so agency on the chemically-prepared White
India-rubber, and as it is a non-conductor, fluids of any temperature
may with thorough comfort be imbibed and retained in the mouth,
all unpleasantness of smell or taste being at the same time wholly
pro Tided against by the peculiar nature of its preparation.
To be obtained only at 61, Grosvenor-street, London;
22, Gay-street, Bath ;
34, Grainger •street, Neweastlz-on-Tyne.

The essential object of this treatise is to point the fearful con-
sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
a hich have proaaced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
Is 041, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
ps.rticularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of haying hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled.
It is absolutely necessary thatall men should knew, that there are
trinciples of personal management a hich cannot be violated without
seurriag grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties
n ay be mitigated, bow the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
and how the evil and its consequences maybe avoided, and above all,
that there Is sesreely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure,
7 heAuther has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
eractico in the treatment of these delicate complaints, svhich have
unfortunately teen too generally confided to Use 'rare of ignorant
enmities, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
faith in their pretension,s.
