JACK FROST'S LECTURE
OR, A SKETCH FOR rHE SKATERS.
In Snowball•road, not far from Winter-square,
Stanc's Skater's Hall— a very fine affair.
And here, for years, while many a form has shivered,
Jack Frost his annual lecture has delivered.
So being fend of skates, as well as rhymes
(For poets condescend to skate at times),

And every one appeared in expectation.

" Ladies and Gentlemen," said Master Jack,
" I chiefly dwelt on skates a twelvemonth back ;
But now I really think I can't do less
Than let you know my thoughts on
SKATING DRESS.
Dress is a most essential thing in skating,

Have most superior clothing for the ice.

price,
Who wish to thaw the evils of a dip.
No fear of water giving cold," said Jack,
" With MOSES' Waterproofs upon your back.
I'm glad this amphitheatre discloses
Such qualities of skating•conts from MOSES.
I see," said Mr. Frost from where he stood,
"You're like the Lord Mayor's Fool—you know what's good ;
Aud none of you, I find, have been such fiats,
As not to purchase MOSES'
SKATING HATS.
Yes, Skating Hats —you'll understand the term,
Fitting, elastic, waterproof, and firm ;
The qualities on which I'm now dilating,
Are strongly tested in the sport of skating.
Added to these, you need, in such pursuits,
Those valued needfnls —MOSES'
SKATING BOOTS.
With Boots like these, in every sense first-raters,
You cannot fail in being splendid skaters ;
Besides, the leather and the make are such
As any gentleman would value much.
No penetrating snow, no drenching damp
Can find access to give the feet the cramp.
l've also thought of many things worth stating,
Concerning MOSES'
HOSIERY FOR SKATING.
Of course you know, that for a moderate price,
You'll get those choice etceteras for the ice ;
MOSES and SON supply the very best
Of Neckerchiefs and Gloves, and all the rest;
And, furthermore, I would assure you, Sirs,
That MOSES' sell the choicest
SKATING FIXES.
I'm sure," said Jack, " that all the ladles present,
On whom I can't help looking rather pleasant,
Will patronise that Mart, whose Fur goods warm,
Protect the fair ones from each wintry storm."
With this the lecturer politely bowed,
Amid the cheering of the assembled crowd.

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could
it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant
'vers. The particuler excesses, en
disap-
pointments. Excesses are always Nations ; the gift, which when
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
thtoethneatcuronse constitutional and annendcve of whichr this Treatise professes to dilate,ital
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
than any other to which it is subiect.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions In health and disease. it deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preservation of the health
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained•that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the ceases of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show by his possession of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.
