GOVERNMENT PROTECTION, under 6 and
7 Vic., cap. 65, for three years, obtained by H. J. and D.
NICOLL, COURT TAILORS, 114, REGENT-STREET, London,
for their new introduction, the REGISTERED PALETOT, which is
a summer overcoat, light in weight, embracing the convenience and
comfort of the wrapper of tweed and its moderate price, without its
inelegant and universally-admitted common appearance. The ma-
terial is of a peculiar softness, made expressly of the finest Llama
Wool, and in its fashion is neither trop neglige nor trop habille, but
whilst showing to advantage the proportions of the figure, it cannot
encnmber free movement, worn riding or walking: it will also, from
the neatness of its form, admit of Its being used as a light Frock Coat
—a desirable advantage in our.warmest summer months, or abroad
where heat is found Oppressive.
_ _

H. J. and D. NICOLL, sensitive to the importance of that vade-
mecum—a moderately-light overcoat In a climate so changeable as
that of Great Britain—would not submit to the public the Registered
Paletot till themselves were satisfied of its being perfect, and that
when used as a pardessus, riding or walking, or as summer frock, the
above firm might pledge a reputation, which, gained by matured skill
and honoured by royal patronage, is of some standing. This they can
do with safety, as their new introduction, they respectfully submit,
will not compromise that characteristic of an English gentleman—
the unassumed neatness of his attire. As a wide extended sale is
sought, the very moderate price of Two Guineas is fixed.
Respectable firms will alone be treated with relative to an agency
for the sale of the Registered Paletot, to whom alone a discount can
be allowed. There being a large and increasing demand, many aro
kept ready in the extensive Warerooms, 114, REGENT-STREET.

I%[EEN FUN ; or, CELESTIAL SKIN
POWDER. The celebrated Chinese Cosnletic for preserv-
ing the complexion, and for rendering the skm white, smooth, and
soft. The great value of this cosmetic is, that the ingredients being
solely herbaceous, the most delicate complexion can apply it with-
out injury, while rough, red and moist skins speedily experience
beneficial results. It will be found besides to prevent erruptions on
the skin during cold and chilly weather, Another important feature
is that of repressing, without detriment to the sanatory condi-
tion of the user, the truly unpleasant sensation accompanying
too copious perspiration. For infants this powder is invaluable, on
account of its harmless and soothing qualities. Gentlemen who
suffer from the effects of shaving will find a ready alleviate in this
cosmetic.
