Diseases of the Chest and the Respirato7 Organs. Preven-

during the wet and wintry season with a supply of KEAT-
ING'S COUGH LOZENGES, which possess the virtue of
averting, as well as of curing a Cough or Cold; they are good
alike for the young or for the aged.

mouth, and are formed FO exactly to nature, that the closest
observer cannot detect the difference, and in all cases they

are fixed from one t, a compiete set upon Mr. Eskell's never-
failing and painless principle (f self-adhesion, without ex-
tracting any teeth or stumps, or giving any pain whatever ;

ping Decayed Teeth, is a preparation which never ch inges
colour nor affeils the colour of the tooth, and is free from any
injurious properties either as regards the teeth or general
health. Its application :s easily performed, and without

covery.—The Organic Vibrator, an extraordinarily nower-
fill small newly-invented instrument for Deafness,
entirely different from all others, surpasses anything of the
kind that has been, or probably er can be, produced. Being-
of the same colour as the skin, is not perceptible. It enables
deaf persons to hear distinctly at church and at public assem-
blies ; the unpleasant sensation of singing noises in the cars
is entirely removed, and it affords all the assistance that
possibly could be desired. Also, every kind of hearing in-
struments.—Spectacle Lenses of the greatest transparent
power. The great advantage derived from this inven-

do not require the frequent changes to the dangerous effects
