PATENT PERRYIAN PENS.'
These Pens having been submitted to the test of public
opinion for many years, are acknowledged to stand pre-eminent
for the great superiority of their manufacture. The care be-
stowed in perfecting them to suit every description of writing,
renders them cheaper than the ordinary pens at a lower price.
Their adoption in the Government and other Public Offices,:
Banks, &e., with their great and increasing sale, is sufficient,
evidence of the high estimation in which they are held.
Sold on Cards, with Medium, Fine, Extra Fine, or Broad.
Points. Each Card'bears the signature—"JAMES PERRY',
and Co."
N.B.—Some Pen Manufacturers, taking advantage of the.
namense demand for these Pens over all others, have been im-
posing spurious ones upon the public, for whose protection, and
for the protection of the Patentees, TWENTY POUNDS
REWARD will be given on conviction, for information of
any person or persons infringing any of the Proprietor's patent
rights.

THE APERITIVE FOUNTAIN procures
in a few minutes a passage of the bowels merely with a
little water, which ought to induce Persons to relinquish pur-
gatives, the habitual use of which eJentually produces more
mischief than even costiveness itself. This little apparatus
is superior to all lavement machines, irasmuch as it introduces
no air, never requires any adjusting, maybe concealed (when
filled): in a lady's reticule or a gentleman s pocket, and is so
simple that the most infirm may use it without assistance, and
it will not get out of repair in any climate ! EAR ASSIST-
ANTS TO THE DEAF, by a graduated scale, produce such
a variety of effects, that any individual may employ exactly the
degree of power that his deafness requires, according to the
distance, whether in public or private. The Conversation As-
sistants are worn in the ears without being perceived. Ap-
plications (if by post, should state particulars, and inclose an
order for payment) to Messrs. PINE and ROOFF, Managers

Exeter Hall. Descriptive Drawings, with prices, of the Ape-
ritive Fountain and Ear Assistants, sent post free.

CAUTION.
MANY Shopkeepers, of mean and dishonest
principles, try to impose upon the Public counterfeits
of ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL," composed of the
most pernicious and trashy ingredients ; some offer them
under the hire of being Cheap; others palm ihern surrepti-
tiously upon the unwary as the " Cienuine' —the Label, on in-
spection, will be found to be minus the " te in the Signature
and the Countersign.
AS A PROTECTION FROM SUCH IMPOSITION
Observe—That each bottle is enclosed in a " New Label"
from Steel, by Messrs. Perkins, Bacon; and Co., on which are
these words—in two hues—" Rowland's Macassar Oil," and the
Signature and Address of the Proprietors in Red. thus—
A. ROWLAND & SON, 20, Hatton-Garden, London.
Counter-signed ALEX. ROWLAND.
On the back of the Label are the words " Rowland's Ma-
cassar ad" written nearly 1,500 times, containing 29,028
letters.
The lowestprice is 35.6 d.—the next 7s.—Or Family Bottles,
containing four small, 10s. 61, and double that size 21s. per
bottle.
"i'4. Be sure to ask for " Rowland's Macassar Oil."

A FACT.
MECHI'S MAGIC STROP is known to
have sharpened Razors when all other means have
failed. Those who doubt it can ask their friends, and if they
pnrchase, and are not satisfied, may have their money returned.
They are cheap-2s. 6d., 3s. 6d., 4s. 6d., and the very large
sizes 53., ss. 6d., and 6s. 6d. each. The MAGIC PASTE is
6d. and Is. per cake. Upwards of 150,000 -Strops and one
million and a half of Paste have been sold in the last six
years, which is a pretty good proof of their excellence. There
is a little fact, however, to notice, which may prevent much
disappointment and a good deal of pain : sundry unprincipled
persons, desirous of sharing Mechi's good fortune, without
being entitled to it, have made up thousands of common strops,
calling them " The Magic Strop," " The Double Magic
Strop," " The Real Magic Strop," &c. and so on, taking care
not to put on Mechi's Magic Strop. Now, by noticing the
name " Mechi" on each Strop, with the address " No. 4,
Leadenhall•street, London," you are sure to be right, as the
law will not allow them to put MecLi's name on the spu, ions
sort. These imitafion Strops are manufactured in large
quantities at Sheffield, and shipped to a considerable extent to
America and the Colonies, and it is to be feared that in too
many instances the buyers are not aware they are deceived,
although they find them of no use in sharpening, which is a
considerable injury to Mechi's good name. Most respectable
Perfumers throughout the United Kingdom will supply the
Genuine Strop as cheap as if purchased at Mechi's. His ma.
nufactury is at No. 4, Leadenh.ill.street, London, where may
be had his famous Bagatelle Tables, Dressing Cases, and Papier
Ann a-rhe Goods,; also his approved Razors,' Penknives, and
Table Cutlery, Catalogues may be had Gratis.

COPAIBA and CUBEBS ENTIRELY
SUPERSEDED —WRAY'S BALSAMIC PILLS,

Pernian, nt and eficc.uai cure of gonorrhoea, g eets cove , strictur

cei'ented succe-s the has ;ttended the administration of these pills,
since they were made public. has acquired
tensive than any o her proprietary medicine ext.ii, ; and the circum.
for them a sale more ex_
stance of their entirely obviating the necessity of having
.recour,e to
those disgusting, nauseous, and, in many c,ses,
ikines (as copaitia, cuhebs, &e.) has obtained to them a advertised
unequalled unequalled in ti .e annals of medicine. Prior to being advertised
highly injurious me-
these pills were employed in private practice in upwards Of /
ses since,
cases, many of them most inveterate—in many thous Ind ca
and in no one instance known to
-ail, or to produce those unplea-
r
sant symptoms so often experienced while taking crpaiba, and that
class of medicines usually resorted to sn the.e cnmpl 'lets. T e
h
Proprietor pledges himself that not one particle of copaiba, either
resin or balsam, cuhebs or any deleterious ingredient enters their
composition. Copaibs and cuhebs have long been the mosr COM-
rrioni, employed medicines in the above complaints ; but, from the
'uncertainty in their effects, together with their utter inefficacy in
many eases, are fast declining in reputation ; and from the unplea-
sant symptoms in . ariubly prod.-ced from taking copaiba, especially
in the ear y stage of the complaint, many of the most able inoctln
practi.hners condemn it as dangerous, and a medicine not to be de-
nen• ed upon. Many persons, after having suffered mere from the
effec.s of the remedy than the virulence of the disease, and after a
patient I ut painful perseverance, have beets compelled to relinquish
its we, the whole system having necome more or less affected, and
the disease as bad, if not worse than at the cen-nmencement. As re-
gards euhtbs, it is true that those violent effects are not experienced
as while taking copaiba; but they seldom effe t a core, sinless more
active medicines are admleistaged. The Isalsamic Pills arc free from
any of the above oniectiods ; they act specifically on the urinary pas-
sagf s; and, from their tonic propertirs, tend to strengthen the sys_
tern and improve the general health. They require neither con fi ne-
must nor alteration of diet (except abstinence from stimulants,
Where considerable inflammation exist.) ; • and, as experience has
amply proved, thee will effect a cure sooner than copaiba (the
well
-
gerous remits of which, in the inflammatory Wages, are too well
known to need further comment), or any other medicine in present
use, and may be justly considered the only safe and efficacious re-
medy in all stages of those nisorders. In addition to these advan-
tages, the very convenient form in which this invaluable preparation
is offered to the public must also be considered a tlesie'eraturn. •
Prepared only by M. 0 Wray, and sold wholesale and Jetail, at
