MR. HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-

FICIAL TEETH,tixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so
Perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from
the original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or
decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful
operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is
guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed teeth
rendered sound and useful in mastication.-52, Fleet-street. At
home from ten till five.

BANREAS.—The London Joint-Stock Bank

This Association Was been formed to consolidate and improve the
Savings-Bank system ; to offer Kett, r interest than has hitherto
been allowed ; facilities for unlimited deposit ; means of convenient
Withdrawal, and perfect security to the Depozitor.
The unpopularity of the present system, its acknowledged lose-
eUrity to Depo,itors, expense of management, and low rate of in-
tereat, are universally acknowledged: while in strong contrast are
Presented the advantages of the new system of the National Savings-
Association.
The proof of the necessity which exists for this Association will
be found in thefaot that there are no less than 483 places, vb ith
More than 3,000 inhabitants each, that have not a Savings-Bank ;
Co partial in operation is the present system.
The Directors propose to supply this deficiency by the gradual
establishment of branches : also to keep at the Dead Office a dupli-
cate of every account in the country ; to strike the balance at the
nead Office every June and December, from the weekly returns of
the branches of the Association ; and to exhibit the numbm•s of each
Pass-book, with the balance due, as ascertained by such returns,
every June and December in each Branch Bank. A iter July, 1867
they will cause returns of the Association, duly certified by the Audi-
tors, to be made in January and July, and a copy to be sent to
every Shareholder.
The Directors expect that the National Savings-Bank Associa-
tion will be a',le to pay its shareholders a large divid :rid on all c sh
Paid up on shares.

Application for Shares may now he addresmd to the Directors of
the National Savings-Bank Association (limited), 50, King tit illiam-
street, City, London.
Gentlemen,—l request you will allot to me Shares in
the above undertaking—which, or any less number you may &lot to
me, I will accept. Herewith I forward ss. per share, and agree to
Pay 15s. per share within one mmth after allotment.
