MADAME TUSSAUD'S.—Among the most interest-
ing cighte of the metropolis during the Whitsuntide holi-
days none appeared to be more generally patronised, and
gave greater satisfaction to the sightseers, than the re-
nowned and popular wax work galleries in Baker-street,
The exhibition has been crowded with visitors ; and the

of most of the notorious cri►ninals who expiated their
crimes on the gallows, appeared to be not the least attrac-
tive to the sightseers.

exaggerate the extraordinary virtues of this mrdicine in
the treatment of all affections of the liver or irregularities
of the bowels. In case of depraved or superabundant bile

should then be taken rather more sparingly, for every me-
dicine in the form of an aperient requires caution when
the bowels are disordered, though a gentle or more genial
aperient than these Pills, in moderate doses, has never yet
Or
been discovered. If take tt ccord ing to the printed in-
strustions,they not only the complaint, but improve
the whole sfiteui,
