INIPORTANT CAUTION.

" THE RECUMBENT CHAIR is tile in-
genious invention of Mr. DAWS, 17, Margaret-
street, Cavendish-square. The recommendations of it, in
many scientific works, have induced many unprincipled
upholsterers to sell an imitation of it, which, we find, does
not afford the same extent of comfort to invalids, or as an
ordinary Resting Chair as the original. We, therefore,
advise the obtaining of it of Mr. Daws."—Dr. Reece's
Medical Annual, 1831.
" Among the conveniences which married ladies should be
provided with, we must particularise that excellent invention of
24r. Daws, from which it is found that ladies are enabled to en-
joy that repose which is so essential to their health. The ad-
vantage consists in allowing the back and arms to be adjusted by
the person sitting in it, with the most perfect security,so as to be
upright or inclining ; and by being furnished with peculiar
wheels (which can be instantly detached,) ladies can move them-
selves in rooms even crowned with furniture, and with so slight
a motion of the hand, that the axiom of mechanics (motion with-
out friction) would at first appear accomplished."—Found in a
Manuscript of the late Dr. Reece.
ROBERT DAWS respectful:y states that no other prin-
ciple does, or can, admit of half its variations or numb, r of
steady positions, comfort, simplicity, strength, and elegance;
and he will present one to any respectable person showing
the contrary.
The same Chair may be had portable, also with wheels,
by which persons can move thernselvts in a room, garden,
or lawn —May be had on hire.

" Life is only life when blest with health."
THE finest System of Ethics is to confine
within due bounds, and thus to regulate the Pas-
sions; unrestrained, and insubordinate, they impetuously
destroy those barriers which Religion and Morality have
made sacred ; to curb but not annihilate them, appears the
lesson of prudence, best calculated to limit that. efferves-
cence.

Every disorganization of the human frame requires
great medical knowledge to remedy, and the public wel-
fare is promoted when professional men (disregarding the
suggestions of the envious and interested) devote their
studies to the treatment of those complaints generated by
imprudence, and the ebullition of the passions at an un-
guarded moment. " The strength of a nation consists in
the health of the people ;" but, it is melancholy to reflect
on the daily sacrifice to the ignorance of unfeeling empy-
ricisro ; and to counteract, as far as possible, its further
ravages, we offer to suffering humanity the result of our
uwn experience in the various diseases of Debility. The
unwary victim of solitary vice (early acquired at school,
Leroy. reason has asserted her right over the mind), will,
in-contemplating his powerless state, become susceptible
of enlivening sensations, in knowing that the most com-
plicated state of exhaustion may be roused into manly
energy. Intense study—immoderate anxiety—long resi-
dence in tropical climes, and many other causes, will fre-
quently derange the Nervous` System ; in such cases we
can hold out an assurance of re-animation, by a treatment
which has lung answered the sanguine hope. of Patients of
both sexes.

That bane to human happiness, SYPHYLIS, can not
be treated fearlessly, the improved state of Medical ~v
ease having divested its antidote of those distressing pro-
perties that so long rendered its exhibition uncertain and
harassing. Some peculiarities incidental to the softer
sex have not escaped our attention ; in which mildness,
combined with efficacy, has superseded the means usually
adopted. In fine, our system is unique, peculiarly ener-
getic, and eminently successful.
Educated in London, schooled in our prof, ssional at-
tainments by its splendid medical characters, and having
been able, personally, to compare with admiration the
British Surgical practice with the Continental, our pre-
tensions to superiority (in a branch we have selected) are
matured by experience, which is evinced by the daily ap-
plications we receive, even from distant countries,
Daily attendance is given for personal consultations and
letters from the country are immediately answered ; these
must contain a remittance fur Advice and Medicines,
which can be forwarded to any part of the world, however
distant.
