manes and tails, to supersede the use of mane combs. Noblemen

per cent. under any house in Eriglani.l. Horse and carriage brushes

LIGHT AND HEARING - TESTI-
MONIALS on the Messrs. S. and R. SOLOMONS'
newly-invented SPECTACLE LENSES and INVISIBLE
OPERATIVE VOICE CONDUCTOR for Deaf Persons.

" We, the undersigned, have been for some time making
use of Messrs. Solomons' newly invented Spectacle Lenses ;
the astonishing relief they afford to imperfect vision gives
them the deCided preference to every other kind of Lens
—the clearness of the transparency brings every object very
distinct, and enables individuals to view the most minute par
tide with perfect accuracy. They are particularly pleasant
by candle light, as they appear cooling to the sight, and soften
bright and brilliant lights :

is not larger than a seven-shilling- piece, and when fixed tutu
the cavity of the ear is soft and easy, and not more uncomfort-
able nor perceptible than having a piece of wool in its place.
By its use .the faintest whisper at a public assembly is heard
see flist:netness.
