FIFE HUNDRED POUNDS REWARD.—" There
Is a newly-invented P.tent Recumbent Chair, by Mr. DAWS.
of 17, Margaret-street, Cavendish-square, London, which it is but
justice to a most ingenious man, to introduce to the particular notice
of our readers. The King, we hear, has them, and certainly the in-
firm, the sedentary, and Ladies whose temporary burthen may dis-
pose them to a little additional repose, base never before lounged on a
cleverer piece of workmanship ; it is handsome and compact, and the
contrivance Is so simple, that the required position is attained by the
slightest movements possible."—Examiner.

" Possessing these advantage', it is not comparatively dearer than a
common easy chair."—Times.

The chair alluded to will form near 20 positions. The principle and
name were the invention of R. Daws, the patentee, and such is the high
apnrobation and patronage he has gratefully to acknowledge, and so
well is the perfection of it attested and approved, that where an easy
chair or couch is desirable or necessary, it will take precedence as a
much more comfortable and elegant supply for both. There are many
imitations which are called improved recumbent chairs, but R. Days
1... n have no need to say they are deceptions or dangerous. since he has
for three years part, and still continues to offer 1.300 for the production
of the kind which a majority of competent judges will pronounce more
rttect, and for which his signature may be had on application. Some
are admirably portable. One shall be sent for inspection by favour of
a reference, and payment of expencca or at the rate of 10s. per 100
miles; he warrants his principle seven yeats.
