SIGHT AND HEARING.

THE INVISIBLE OPERATIVE VOICE
CONDUCTOR, effected by the Messrs. S. and B.
SO LOMON S, OPTICIANS and AURISTS to the ROYAL
F 'SMILY, 39, ALBEMARLE-STREET, PICCADILLY,
by which thousands of deaf persons have been greatly bene-
fited, is the size of a seven-shilling piece, and when fixed into
the cavity of the ear is soft and easy, and not more perceptible
than having a piece of wool in its place. by which the faintest
whisper at a public assembly is heard with distinctness. And
defective VISION is brought to nature by the use of newly-
invented SPECTACLE LENSES; immediately they are
placed before weak and imperfect eye-sight, either by day or
candle light, every object becomes clear and distinct, and the
meat minute particle is seen with great distinctness ; by the use
of which both the sight and hearing become much improved.
The Messrs. S. and B. SOLOMONS disclaim all con-
nexion with persons of the same name, and the sale of am-
ber spectacles ; the pernicious use of amber spectacles
being now well krilwn to the public, and the vendor being
aware of it, he has therefore altered their name, by leaving out
the word " Amber," and calling them " Patent Spectacles."
Those which he terms " Patent Spectacles" are no other than
those of amber ; the history and destructive use of that mate-
rial for Spectacles to imperfect vision is fully and most satis-
factorily explained by the undermentioned scientific authority:
From the " Dictionary of Arts and Sciences" of Andrew Ure,
M. D. , F.R,S., &c., &c.
" Amber is an indurated vegetable juice, and not pr6duced
by the laws of crystallisation, but by the same causes which
influence the mechanical condition of gum. Insects are often
found embedded in it. Amber is most powerfully electrical
by friction—very hot, to such an extent as to explode into frag-
ments; the workmen, too, are subject to ne vous tremors in
their wrists, arms, &c. ; they encounter great (.anger by handling
such dreadful excited electrics ; amber grows with lime, and is
apt to take fire, and is of such a soft nature when exposed to
warmth, that it swells, bubbles up, and will burn away with
flame."

The above Dr. Ure's statements are further confirmed by Sir
D. Brewster and Pliny, as also by Parks and Hems, on Che-
mistry. The destructive effects of such a material for specta-
cles, to imperfect vi:ton, may be ascertained at any respectable
Optician's in London.
The Messrs. Solomons' newly invented Spectacle Lenses are
not constructed of such a material ; but which are very supe-
rior, and bring back at once dimness of sight and imperfect
vision to its original and natural state. These Spectacles, and
very small Voice Conductors for deaf persons, are ..r.ly to be
nad at their establishments, 39, Albemarle-street (opposite the
York Hotel), and 76, King William-street, Bank.

NO PUFF NOR IMPOSITION.
QPENC ER'S CHINESE LIQUID HAIR
DYE changes in a few minutes, without trouble, red, or
grey hair, whiskers, eyebrows, moustaches, 4c., to a dark
brown or black, by simply using a comb wetted with the liquid;
one application will produce a pleasing and a permanent change.
The colour it imparts to the hair can never be discovered to
have been effected by dye, it being as perfectly natural, and
neither washing, perspiration, or anything will in the least fade
or affect the colour produced. Hundreds of ladies who wore
false hair, because their own became grey, wear now their own.
Also, thousands of gentlemen who -had grey or red whiskers,
which was a great disfigurement, have become quite dark from
the use of SPENCER'S CHINESE LIQUID HAIR DY
Any lady or gentleman may dye their Hair with ease and
secrecy in a few minutes without trouble.

EN cases of secrecy consult the TREATISE
on every stage and symptom of the VENEREAL DIS.
EASE, in its mild and most alarming forms, just published by
Messrs. Perry and Co., Surgeons, 4, Great Charles-street,
Birmingham, and 44, Albion-street, Leeds.
The above invaluable little work is given gratis with each
box of PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS, price
2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., and lls., containing a full description of the
above complaint, '.illustrated by Engravings, showing the dif-
ferent stages of this deplorable and often fatal disease, as well
as the dreadful consequences arising from the use of Mercury.
The causes, symptoms, and baneful effects of Lues Venerea,
Gonorrhoea, Strictures, Seminal Weakness, &c., are explained
to a familiar,manner ; to which are added very extensive prac-
tical observations on sexual debility, brought on by a delusive
habit, all its attendant sympathies considered, and the whole
illustrated by striking cases, accompanied with full and explicit
directions fur an effectual and speedy cure, with ease, secrecy,
and safety, without the aid of medicial assistance; it also con-
tains many hints and advice well worth knowing.
PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS, price2s. 9d.,
4s 64., and Its. per box, is the most certain and effectual cure
ever discovered, for every stage and sYinptom of the Venereal
Disease, in both sexes, including Gonorrhoea, Gleets, Se-
condary Symptoms, Strictures, Seminal Weakness, Deficiency,
and all Diseases of the Urinary Passages, without loss of time,
confinement, or hindrance from business ; they have effected
the most surprising cures, not only in recent and severe cases,
but when salivation aid all other means have failed.

It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall victims to this
horrid disease, owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate men,
who, by the use of that deadly poison, mercury, ruin the con-
stitution, cause ulceration, blotches on the head, face, and body,
dimnes sof sight, noise in the ears, deafness, obstinate gleets,
n odeson the shin bones, ulcerated sore throats, diseased nose,
with nocturnal pains in the head and limbs, till, at length, a
generaldebility and decay of the constitution ensues, and a me-
anchol y death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings.
Messrs. Perry and Co., Surgeons, may be consulted at No.
4, Great Charles-street, Birmingham, and 44, Albion-street,
Leeds. Only one personal visit is required from a country
patient, to give such advice as will be the means of effecting a
permanent and effectul cure, after all ether mensinhave proved
ineffectual. .
Letters for advice must be post. paid,'tend contain the usual
fee of one pound. •
ER RY'S CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM is intended
to, elieve those persons who, by an immoderate indulgence of
their passions, have ruined their constitution, or in their way to
tne consummation of that deplorable state are affected with
any of those previous symptoms that betray its approach, as the
various affections of the nervous system, obstinate gleets, invo-
luntary emissions, excesses, irregularity, obstructions of certain
evacuations, weakness, total incompetency, barrenness, &c. A
perseverance in its use has been the happy means of relieving
many thousands, and of restoring a great number to the per-
manent enjoyment of life. It is remarkable for its efficacy in
all disorders of the digestive organs, and is especially recom-
mended to those who, from the irregularities of youthful age,
habits of studious application, or a life of pleasure, have fallen
into a despondent state of mind, and that distressing train of
symptoms commonly denominated the nervous. In such per-
sons the mental are not less enfeebled than the corporeal
powers, and to them a remedy that acts with efficacy, without
interfering with domestic habits, is peculiarly desirable.

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result
of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec-
tions, which for some unaccountable reason have been either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference, by the or dinary practitioner. Te enter into the
• of these affections, to point out their causes, and to
. eliWthe terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical,
which are sure te follow from indulgence, in certain habits,
would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have
no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of
society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe-
ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA-
RENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN.
Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their
residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho, from Ten till Three, and
Five till Eight in the Evening; and Country Patients are re-
quested to be as minnte as possible in the detail of their cases,
—as to the duration of the complaint, the symptoms, age, ge-
neral habits of living, and occupation in life of the party ; the
communication must be accompanied by the " usual Consulta-
' tion Fee of 11.," without which no notice whatever can be
taken of their application ; and in all cases, the most inviolable
secrecy may be relied on,
