bottle, or in half bottles. 10s. 61. Testimonials from artistes

Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have boon given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppors and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. Tho poor
from all parts are admitted, tho only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. Tho Manager dm.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
‘re, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, andhave
to spend night after night in the cold, wot, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is properjed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has boon begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? Tho smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.

SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be

MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
feleet-street, has introduced au entirely new descrip-
tion of A ItTIFICIAL rEE P Ei, fixed without springs, wires,
or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth
as not to be distinguished fro a the originals by the closest
observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will
be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This
method does not require the extraction of roots, or any pain-,
ful operation, and wilt support and preserve teeth that are
loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastica-
tion. Decayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful
En mastication.
