BUTLER'S celebrated RES l'O RAT I VE TOOTH POWDER.
~BEAUTY of Countenance, and regularity of Fea-
t tures, are allowed to distinguish the British Fair; but the
Proprietor of BUTLER's TOOTH POWDER would beg leavt
to remind his Country-women that the lustre of their Chasms
loses half its influence when• the Teeth are discoloured, or shale
a rotten and unhealthy appearance—this is the more inexcusable,
as the present preparation affords the infallible means of removing
every blemish of the enamel, and is safe in its application, being
composed of Vegetables.
It is recommended to the attention of all ranks, as clearing
away every imperfection, either in the colour, or the decay of the
enamel of the Teeth, at rendering the Breath sweet and delecta
ble, and making the Gums of their proper shape and vermillion
hue; and a certain preventive against the Tooth-ache. No com-
position of this kind ever brought forward to public notice, has
met such universal approlLition ; and the Proprietor has to boast
that it is in daily use of Royalty itself.
Sold, wholesale and retail, by Mr. Butler, No. 4, Cheapside,
corner of Paternoster-row ; and retail, by Crisp, corner of Spring
Gardens; Pidding, 76, Oxford-street; Clarke, ants, Borough;
Baxter, Edinburgh and Glasgow, and by most Country Medicine
Venders and Perfumers, in boxes at is. Pd. each.

HEALTH and VIGOUR restored by that most excellent Medi-
cine, THE CORDIAL I.ALM OF GILEAD,
Prepared by Dr. So i. oat o m Gilkul House, .near Liwrpool,
Price Half-;-Guinb., a Bottle; _
Or the quantity of Four in One FamilySatde, for 335. on which
9s. are saved, duty included.
THE CORDIAL BALM of GILEAD has been
in repute to the very pinnacle of fame. Universally as it
is resorted to in eases of weakness and emaciation, so also are its
benign and health-restoring qualities universal. Sono!, perhaps,
unacquainted with its virtues, not having perused that interesting
' Guide,' (which must ke few indeed) may be induced to ask,
what is the Balm of Gilead lit for ? what contplaint sloth it cure ?
To answer this it will be necessary to
" Hold up the Mirror to nature."
' Let those who are afflicted in the het
"g manner reflect on
the cause that produced such havoc upon
and appetites of life." Disordered stomach, dry cough, weakness
of the voice, hoarseness, shortness of the breath upon the least
exercise, and relaxation of the whole s) stem. Those afflicted with
paleness, languor of the eyes, weakness of sight or memory, should
take time to consider Linnaeus advice, "that youth is the impor.
cant period of forna;tig a robust constitution," and that " nothing
is to be dreaded 4 much as premature excess." The foundation
of a happy old age is a good constitution in youth; temperance
and moderation at that' age are passports to happy grey hairs.—
tlothlng can be better described than is the words of Armstrong,
..---.--.—" For want of timely care
' . Million have died of medicable wounds."
For such as these, then, this healing Balm is suitable—Com-
plaints stifled under the carneleon appellation of nervous and con-
suniptiw, are its proper climax ; the one it will eradicate—the
other will be cured by its influence. The Balm of Gilead has
produced more good in this country than any medicine since the
formation of a Materia Medici*.
Ibis incomparable Medicine is sold by Mathews and Leigh,
18, Strand, London, in bottles, at 10s. 6d. each, or four in one la-
' only bottle for 33s by which 9s. are saved, including the duty, the
