ANOVELTY for the approaching season is in

Garment, or PALETOT, called TEE NICOLT., which retains all the
characteristics of the famed l'aletot (registered 6 and 7 Vic., cap. 6.5)
in its exterior, and has the additional advantages of being convertible
from a warm to_ a light Overcoat, or vi'e versa, at the pleasure of
the wearer. or as the mild or cold nature of the weather may re-
quire. This garment must be seen and worn to be properly appre-
ciated ; it will he found, perhaps, the best preservative of health in
this variable climate. fHE NICOLL has been secured by Royal
Letters Patent in ENGLAND. IRELAND, SCOTL \ND, and the
COLONIES ; It can, therefore, only be purchased in the country, or
abroad, of Messrs NICOLL'S (the patentees) recognised AGENT

FENCER'S CHINESE LIQUID HAIR DYE.
kJ The thousands of individuals who for upwards of twenty
years have used this celebrated liquid, pronounce it to be the only
article extant which effectually changes, in a few minutes, red or
grey hair, whiskers, moustaches, &c., to a dark brown or black,
without trouble (by simply combing it through the hair), and pro-
duces by one application a pleasing and permanent change.
While other dyes destroy the hair by their pernicious properties,
this liquid promotes its growth, nourishing the roots to the latest
period of life. Persons who have been deceived by p-eparatio.'s
which have a horrible stanch (dangerous to the head), troublesome
in their apnlication, and unsatisfactory in their colour, will find
Spencer's Chinese Liquid Hair Dye a distinct article, agreeable in
every respect, and that " none but itself can be its parahel." Price
