entirely re-written Edition (the 45th) of this celebrated
Treatise, with new Steel Plates, Woodcuts, &c., is now ready.

the structure and functions of the organs concerned in the
fulfilment of the physical obligations of the married state ;

fears, and to indicate, when those fears are well founded, the

PECTACLES.—SIGHT AND HEARING.—
DEAFNESS.—A newly-invented instrument for ex-
treme cases of deafness, called the SOUND MAGNIFIER,
Organic Vibrator, and invisible Voice Conductor. It fits so
into the ear as not to be in the least perceptible ; the unplea-
sant sensation of ringing noises in the head is entirely re-
moved. It affords instant relief to deaf persons, and enables
them to hear distinctly at Church and at public assemblies.
Every other kind of hearing instruments. Messrs. SOLO-
MONS have invented spectacle lenses of the greatest trans-
parent power. The valuable advantage derived from their
invention is, that vision becomes preserved and strengthened ;
very aged persons are enabled to employ their sight at the
most minute occupation, can see with these lenses of a much
less magnifying power, and they do not require the frequent
changes to the dangerous effects of further powerful assist-
ance.-39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, opposite the York

the Pale Newfoundland Oil the best and most desirable for
invalids of very delicate constitution. The Light Brown
being more economical in prim. is brought within the reach of
all classes. No higher price need be paid than the follow-
