marleAreet, Piccadilly, opposite the York Hotel, have invented
Spectacle Lenses, &c., of the greatest transparent power. Imme-
diately these newly invented Spectacle Lenses are placed before ex-
tremely imperfect vision, either by day or candle-light, that mist and
dullness which appear before the eyes are at once removed, every
object becomes clear and distinct, vision becomes preserved and
strengthened, and very aged people are enabled to employ their
sight at the most minute occupati n, and can see with those Lenses
of a much less magnifying power, nor will they require the frequent
cnanges to further helps, as the Spectacle snow in common use, so
that the most aged imperfect sight becomes bright and brilliant, and
is brought to its youthful, natural, and original state; those objects
being accomplished is a matter of much deeper consequence than can
be imagined.
All kinds of newly invented INVISIBLE ACOUSTIC INSTRU-
MENTS, which enable individuals at an advanced age, and of forty
and fifty years' standing of extreme deafness, instantly 'a join in
general conversation, and to catch the sound of a distant low
speaker at church, theatre, &c. It pours the conversation into the
ears to such an extent that in most severe cases deafness cannot
be observed. -.-- . . . -

Also, the most powerful Newly-Invented ACHROMATIC OPERA
GLASSES, which are Invaluable on the race-course, as well as at
the theatre, &c.
The Telescopes for the waistcoat.pocket possess extraordinary
great powers for shooting, sea purposes, &c.; and with stands for
Astronomical Observations, with the celebrated Lenses of the most
clear, transparent brilliancy, the powers are so great over all others,
and the Lenses so bright and brilliant, that the most minute objects
at an extraordinary distance are brought completely under the eyes.
Sportsmen, Tourists, and Sea-side Visitors, will here have a great
treat
Single and Compound MICROSCOPES, by which the circulation
tithe blood of a Fly and a Flea can be seen flowing in great streams.

THE never-failing effects of BLAIR'S GOUT
and RHEUMATIC PILLS in curing every description of
Gout and Rheumatism have secured to them a celebrity unequalled
by any medicine of past or present times. They net only give
relief in a few hours, where the patient has been driven nearly to
madness by the excruciating tortures of this disease, but restore to
perfect health in an inconceivably short space of time. They are
equally speedy and certain in rheumatism, either chronic or acute,
lumbago, sciatica. pains in the head or face, and indeed for every
rheumatic or gouty affbction ; in fact, such has been the rapidity,
perfect ease, and complete safety of this medicine, that it has asto:
nished all who have taken it, and there is not a city, town, or vil-
lage in the kingdom, but contains many grateful evidences of its
benign influence. The following recent case, selected fr,in among
those with which the proprietor has been favoured, is submitted to
the public:—

TO MR MOUT, (229, STRAND.
Hurst, Sussex, Nov. 6, 1643.
Sir,—l have the pleasure to inform you that a person holding an
official situation, noticing in one of my Lille that I was agent for
Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills, was induced ti) try them ; he sent
for a box, and had only taken them one day before he found wonder-
ful relief. The second day he was alale to walk without his crutches,
and on the fourth day was completely cured and able to perform his
ordinary occupation.
Previous to this he was generally laid up every year for several
weeks, after leeche • and fomentations had been applied, and medicine
taken to no purpose. I have obtained the above statement from a
personal interviewand have sent this for publication if you think it
worthy, and shall Abe most happy at any time to satisfy any party
desirous of ascertaining its authenticity.
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
THOMAS WYBORN, Chemist.
