IMPORTANT INVENTION connected with
the MANUFACTURE of BREAD, BISCUIT, and PASTRY.
The Inventor, Mr. JOHN SMITH, of Hare Craig, near Dundee,
zr.B., to whom her Majesty's Letters Patent have been granted for
England, Scotland, and Ireland, has discovered a METHOD of use-
fully TREATING the OAT, se as to obtain therefrom a flour equal,
if not superior to the best wheaten flour. The flour of oats has been
analysed by well-known chemists, and is round to contain a much
larger quantity of nutritious qualities than wheaten flour, and is cal-
culated to give a greater amount of nourishment and strength to the
muscle, bone, and blood of man. The inventor intends to extend the
advantages of this discovery by granting licenses in the different
countries for which her Majesty's Letters Patent havelbeen obtained.
In carrying oat this discovery, there will be required but little altera-
tion in the present system of grinding—an advantage which will be
at once self-evident, as the manufacture may immediately be entered
mien by those engaged in the manufacture of flour from wheat. In
Point of price the benefit will be largely in favour of the consumer,
while the invention will create a demand for oats which will be very
acceptablerto the growers of that grain in its present depressed state
in the market.
Further particulars of this discovery, and also of the terms upon
Which licenses will be granted, may be obtained by application to Mr.
Smith, factor for Lord Douglas, of Douglas, Hare Craig, near Dun-
dee. N.B.

TTUXLEY'S PARISIAN SHIRTS.-
There is but one reason to be assigned for the difficulty
a
experienced by gentlemen in being fitted with Shirts. It is the im-
perfect rules hitherto applied to Shirt making. This has led many
gentlemen to suppose the difficulty to arise from some peculiar for-
mation of the neck or chest. Such opinions are most erroneous. It
is essential that a Shirt should set with ease and comfort, the front
remaining smooth with every change of position. 11. and Co.
respectfully solicit inspection, and fedi confident of giving satisfac-
tion to every customer.
HUXLEY'S REGISTERED SHIRT COLLAR is guaranteed to fit
the neck without a crease. As the most liberal wages are paid to
the shirt hands, superior work can at all times be relied upon.

Fondly doth my eye discern
Tokens of thy glad return ;

With its ever pleasing train,

Pleasures which the many share;
Even in the crowded town,
Thousands hail thy blooming crown,
And to thee their honours pay,

When thy month appears in view.

Add to Messrs. MOSES' trade,
And with this I close my lay,
Shining, smiling, flowery May.
