riHRISTMAS.—One of the new patented inven-
tions called NICOLL'S EIDER DOWN PALETOT will
doubtless form a most acceptable gift at the approaching season of
festivity, when it is somewhat difiicult to select the best token of
friendship or affection. The lightness and warmth of this garment
will render it highly serviceable for covering as evening costume
without causing the least disarrangement ; and front the peculiarity
of the formation of the whole it precludes the necessity for any mea-
sure rent being taken, as merely some slight description if height or
appearance will ,ußice to enable the patentees to supply an EIDER
DOWN PALETOT, at the cost of SIX GUINEAS, and which may
fairly be described as ens of the best preservatives of health ever yet
Introduced to the public.
