CAUTION TO PERFUMERS, DRUGGISTS, &c.
APOLEON PRICE and CO., Wholesale
Perfumers, 28, Lombard-street, London, daily receive in-
formation from their COUNTRY CUSTOMERS that some TRA-
VELLERS are spreading reports, as false and unfounded in truth
as they are malicious and vindictive, which Napoleon Price and Co.
would not condescend to notice, but for the supposition, that if left
uncontradicted, and without exposure, these TRAVELLERS in
SCANDAL and FALSEHOOD might, by deception, effect
their object, viz., to pirate the Orders intended for the House of
Napoleon Price and Co., who particularly request their Customers,
and the Trade generally, to be on their guard against the imposi-
tion of these persons, who basely deceive the public, by substituting,
upon the unwary, spurious imitations of Napoleon Price and Co.'s
Specific for the Complexion, their Johnstone's Patent Old Brown
Windsor Soap, Cold Cream, &c., against whom law proceedings
are now pending.
*** Napoleon Price and Co. request their Friends will address
their Letters to No. 28, Lombard-street, to prevent disappointment.

THE FREQUENT ROBBERIES of PLATE
have induced JOHN JAMES RIPPON, Ironmonger, of
Wells-street, Oxford-street, to MANUFACTURE a SUBSTI-
TUTE for SILVER, possessing all its advantages in point of
appearance and durability, at less than one-tenth the cost. His
BRITISH PLATE is of such a superior quality that it requires
the strictest scrutiny to distinguish it from Silver, than which it is
more durable, every article being made of solid wrought material.
It improves with use, and is warranted to stand the test of the
strongest of acids, aqua fortis. The following is a sample of the
prices ; but purchasers are recommended to apply, post paid, for a
Catalogue, which can be forwarded for a single postage:—

against the article called German Silver, the Manufacturers of that
metal are now calling it British Plate, although the materials re-
main unchanged. The British Plate manufactured by John James
Nippon undergoes a Chemical Process, by which it is rendered pure
and superior to any other so called.

UNDER the PATRONAGE of HER MAJESTY the:QUEEN of
HANOVER, HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS the DUKE of SUSSEX,
HER GRACEthe DUCHESS of RICHMOND, &c. &c.
MR. E. SOLOMONS, OPTICIAN to the
Royal Eye Infirmary, patentee of the Amber Spectacles,
bc., 36, OLD BOND-STREET (nearly opposite tho western
Excbany), whose recently invented and highly approved SPEC-
TACLES may be adapted to the various circumstances of indivi-
dual cases appertaining to defective vision. Whilst these Specta-
cles excel all others, as regards their very superior refractive pro-
perty , and their comparative lightness, they possess the further ad-
vantage of modifying bright and strong light, which, at the same
time, is transmitted through the various humours of the eye, so as
render vision most perfectly distinct, conveying also a sense of cool-
ness and pleasure to the organ, with the additional equally impor-
tant recommendation of being FREE from the pernicious attributes
of common glasses ; in short, the qualities of Mr. Solomon's Spec-
tacles admirably adapt them to afford ease and comfort, by protect-
ing and strengthening the eyes, and to extend to vision the most
decided and instantaneous relief that art can accomplish. Their
Superior efficacy is attested by the following eminent professors, who
(among many others) have given them their unqualified approba-
tion :-

Seldg.

FOR THE HAIR.
OWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL is univer-
sally admired and acknowledged to be the best and cheapest
Article for nourishing the HAIR; pre tints it from falling off or turnin g
grey, and changes grey hair to its original colour. It produces and re-
ns3res Hair—even at a late period of life, frees it from Scurf, and renders
the most harsh and dry hair as soft as silk, curly, and glossy; preserves
it ht curl and other decorative formation—unimpaired by the sum-
Iner'B heat, violent exercise, or the relaxing tendencies of the ball room.
TO Children it is invalisable, as it lays a foundation for a beautiful head
of hair.
