IMPROVED DWELLINGS for the POOR'
It the present moment, when a day of National Thanks-
giving is appointed, it cannot be out of place to bring before the
minds of the Christian public some of the efforts which have been
made, and are still making, to remedy the deplorable evils which
endanger both the lives and the morals of the poorer classes of
society.
The SOCIETY for the IMPROVEMENT of the CONDITION
of the LABOURING CLASSES has now been occupied for mere
than four years past with these objects :
It has bnilt a range of Dwellings for the industrious Classes, on
sanitary principles, at Bagnigge-wells, Gray's Inn-lane. Here
,-, . tvreaty-three families and thirty single women are accommodated.
It has repaired and rendered fit for healthy occupation four houses
in King-street and Charles-street, Drury-lane, wherein 108 working
men are accommodated.
It has built, in George-street, St. Giles's, a Model Lodging House
for working men, where 104 persons of this class find a comfortable
habitation.
It has repaired and fitted up, at No. 75 , Hatton-garden, a house
for the Accommodation of fifty-eight females of the working-classes.
It is now building. in Streatham-street, Bloomsbury, a range of
dwellings for mechanics and their families, wherein about 4$ such
families will And geod aid healthy habitations.
At Tunbridge Wells it is aiding to raise a series of cottages for
agricultural labourers, of which six and a lodging-house for single
men are already completed and occupied.
Besides these various works, it is in constant Correspondence with
a great number of benevolent persons in all parts of the kingdom ;
who apply for its aid in the building or improvement of cottages, or
the settiug-out of cottage allotments.
In these various works it has expended, and is expending, more
than Twenty-three Thousand Pounds. For the works now in hand
a further sum of between Three and Feur Thousand Pounds is needed ;
towards s hich the Committee now solicits the contributions of the
benevolent.
The following are the sums already subscribed towards the house
now erecting in Streatham-street :

EYEBROWS MUSTACHIOS, and WHISKERS produced in a
few weeks, and Baldness removed and prevented, by the use of
RIM TIC AROMATIC REGENE-
RATOR.
If you are in want of that beautiful adornment of the human
figure, a natural supply of human hair, obtain through the post, or
M any wholesale or retail chemist or druggist, or perfumer, an tie.
bottle of Grimstone's Aromatic Regenerator. This is an essential
Spirit, drawn from aromatic herbs and flowers (grown at his Her-
bftrY, Highgate), which has been long known to the nobility and
gentry, by whom it is highly appreciated for its manifold virtues, too
numerous to be set forth in an advertisement, but may be read inf,his
Pamphlet, in which the bottles are enclosed.
Eaek pamphlet has the signature of William Grimstene, Merchant,
lerbary, Highgate, and will be hound at page 11, under the copy of
Mrs. Weekly's Letter to the Editor of the " Times" newspaper, 7th
Of August, 154 G.
This pamphlet is forwarded through the post, on receiving two
postage stamps.
The Aromatic Regenerator can be forwarded through the post on
receiving a post-office order for 45. 6d., 7s. Sd., or lie., which in-
cludes the postage with the case.
The lls. size contains four of the 4s.
,_ A few of its many virtues, as thousands can prove, are published
in the pamphlet enclosed with each bottle.

Reader, reflect for a few minutes, and if you are 40 years of age,
You will remember the thousands of blind you meet with In your
Walks, others with various coloured eye-shades ; indeed, such was
the demand for eye-shades, that it was a business. What has re-
moved
those sightless beings, and given place to a straightforward,
:tear-sighted people (the climate is the same) ? I'll tell you the cause
_ the universal use of- Grimetone's Eye Snuff ! and because It cured
Ophthalmia, Gutta Serena, Catar let, Nervous Headach, and Deaf-
ness, the Lords of the Treasury directed it to be denominated a medi-
cine, and to be stamped. Although this advanced its character, 67
cases of cure being proved by the informers, still it was an act of
oppression ; as in 1825 the Solicitor of Stamps, Godfrey Sykes, Esq.,
altered the label, and sanctioned Its sale under order of the Lords of
the Treasury ; the letter of protection, signed by Herries. EN., to
air. William Gemstone, bearing date 18th February, 1525. This was
on account t 11" Ifs ..1.1 1.,
tees, within tke reach of every poor family. But under this order of
Government it is obliged to be stamped.

lowing Testimonial with regard to the extraordinary efficacy of your

All letters to Mr. William Gemstone, Herbary, Highgate, near
London, at which establishment he continues to manufacture his
far-famed HERB TOBACCO, so much esteemed in all foreign parts.
The following letter, in testimony of its delightful qualities, is from
the author of the " Pleasures of Home :"
" Springfield Cottage, Lloniton, Devon, 15th August, 1845.
Sir,—l cannot deny myself the pleasure of stating how highly I
esteem your Herb Tobacco. I have now found in it a substitute for
the choice leaf, hitherto obtained by me from a friend in Constanti-
nople. lam sure that lovers of mild, fragrant Tobacco would find
Oursa great and acceptable gift, at a very reasonable price.
" I am your obedient servant,
" STUART FARQUHARSON, D.C.L.
To Mr. William Grimstone, Herbary, Highgate."
This extensively-famed Tobacco is sold by all chemists and drug-
fats, and others, with W. Grimstone's signature attached, at 714 d.,

A E R I A G E.
One half the world are desolately single, and the other
"aPPesing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
aeons of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes ens-
hitterthe latter. The solitary one may shield himself tinder the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
ObalProsing harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
sad social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour andjustico demand that health shouldform an item
in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wowed more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
those surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little
MEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life, " pub. in 2 vole., Is.
each (by post, In stamps, ls. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively
refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
by misinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining
thew. They are not intended certainly for mere idle cariosity, but
for the closet perusal of those mero deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on
the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or
together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore. two other
rattle publications claim your attention (same price ls. each,
lost Is. 6d.) callod " What to Eat, Drink, and
Avoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely
PampMets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
sere Ephemeral scribblings of the hodr, but the study of the author's
life who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
aerv.toca of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he
Worud he done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always
On the "sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of
