LIFE, HEALTH, HAPPINESS.
THE Regular Practitioner plumes himself in that
superior sagacity which enables him to detect the impos-
tures of the Quack, while the latter. with equal bluntness, if not
truth, retorts the charges of ignorance and inefficacy on the esta-
blished system of Regular Medicine. " Who shall decide when
Doctors disagree ?" Let Presumption smile, or Pride frown : it
is a lamentable truth, that the present state of Medical Preten-
sion, as a certainty, is not to be ranked with the meanest mecha-
nical discovery of the age.
For me let Galen moulder on the shelf,
I'll live and be Physician for myself.
There is but one infallible criterion which cannot deceive. Ex-
perience is the Test of Truth.—Dr. WEBSTER's VEGETABLE
MEDICINE, the English Diet Drink, has for nearly 60 years, in
every species of Fever, in all kinds of Nervous Complaints, in
Scurvy, in Smssfula in Dropsy, in the Gravel, &c. &c. uniformly
restored the dejected to spirits, the exhausted to strength, and
recalled the vital spark to multitudes, whom professional skill
had abandoned in despair. Dr. W. well knew the pernicious and
destructive effects of quackery, and was therefore decidedly ho-
stile to all descriptions of quacks—he was an eminent Physician,
of extensive experience, and who, for half a century, dispensed
more benefits to suffering humanity, by the application of this Ve-
! vtable Remedy, than all the practitioners in the modern Materia
Medina can boast. He happily combined a perfect knowledge
I of the human frame, and of the animal economy, with botanical
source, and was serefore completely qualified to administer
such preparations with success. Those who wish to see his im-
proved Vegetable System and Principles fully developed, may,
by applying to the Vendors, procure his own Treatise, a new
edition of which is just published, price ss. and also a small
Pamphlet, coistainhig SO cases of remarkable cures, which all oc-
curred during the last year.
This invaluable Medicine is now faithfully prepared by E. Slee
and Co. 92, Borough High-street (sole Proprietors), from the ori-
ginal Recipe, which was assigned over to them by Dr. Webster,
some years prior to his death. Sold in Half Pint Bottles, 45.;

EARL MOIRA's LET I'ER TO BROTHER PRINCE.
THE Earl has taken a quantity 01 Prince's genuine
Russia Oil with him to India, as it is not only a preserver
of the hair, but actually wholesome, if used constantly, to moisten
the hair when dressing, will prevent catching diseases, as you
will observe hereafter, in England as well as any other climate.
The. Earl was sorry he did not know its virtues years before.
Any Nobleman wishing to be satisfied with the above, may have
a sight of the Earl's letter by applying to Mr. Prince.
The Duke of CUMBERLAND has also taken some with him;
and it is In such reputation abroad, that Duke D'Orleans, in Si-
cily, and many other persons of distinction abroad, have sent to
England for a quantity several times. •
11 Also the Duchess of NEWCASTLE sent for some Russia Oil,
who informed the Proprietor she had been witness to its good
effects on a Lady of her acquaintance, who has a beautiful head
of hair, but for seven or eight years past her hair generally fell
oft at spring or autumn, but after using the Russia Oil constantly
when dressing her hair, for the last :Weise months, has preserved
her hair from falling off.
Several Officers in the Army and Navy, and others that
have used the Russia Oil for dressing their hair when abroad,
where there have been fevers and other diseases, have re-
marked they have remained in perfect health; also several
Ladies that had been subject to head-ache for years, have de-i
Glared since they used the Russia Oil for their hair, have been
relieved. The Proprietor is certain the aromatic ingredients the
Russia Oil is prepared with, it might prevent catching diseases,
as it is well known in Turkey, Egypt, and other unhealthy cli-
mates subject to fevers, by the external use of aromatic oils es-
cape the worst diseases. '1 here are many simple articles that have
been thought little of, but when tried have been found of great
benefit. Considering it is the first article for preserving the Hair
and conducive to health, no person, either at home or abroad,
ought to dress their own or false hair without, and through its
virtue, as being beneficial to health, see the last Medical Act of
Parliament, you will find Prince's Russia Oii must have a medi-
cine stamp. As security, the Proprietor has leave of the Com-
missioners of his Majesty's Stamp Office to have his name," Mr.
Prince" printed on the Government Stamp, which is on the oat-
side of the corer of each bo tie—the counterfeiting is forgery.
BALDNESS or GREY lIAIRS will not be seen in future,
if PRINCE'S RUSSIA OIL is used constantly, to moisten
the hair when dressing. It is proved the best and most whole-
some preparation in the Universe for the Hair, and Is so great
a nourisher it used constant, never a hair will fall off or turn
grey ; iu short, where there is hair by nature, and it has got thin
or bald, and the least roots remain, by using the Russia Oil re-
gularly, you may rely on its being restured.—Promotes eye-
brows, whiskers, and will prevent whiskers turning reddish or
grey. Is wed by the Royal Family, and Ladies and Gentlemen
of distinction.
ODserve, the cover of each bottle has a British Government
Stamp, therefore any shopkeeper or hair-dresser selling Russia
Oil, under any pretence whatever, without " Mr. Priece" printed
in the British Government Stamp, are impostors, and sellers of
counterteits.
Ask for Prir.ee's Russia Oil, at Bs. per bottle, or one bottle,
containing four small, at £l. ur six large for £5. duty in-
cluded.
Sold by the Proprietor, Prince, Dentist. Observe, it is not a
Shop—exactly opposite No. 8; the Numbers are irregular in
John-street, Oxford-street. Ladies or Gentlemen sending Ser-
vants for Russia Oil, will be particular to give them directions as
above, as there are petty shop, in John-street, as well a, in other
streets, that sell Counterfeit Russia Oil.
Sold also by Mr. Smyth, Perfumer to his Majesty, New Bond-
street ; liendrie and Sons, Perfumer to her Majesty, 'l' ichborne-
street ; Bayley and Blew, Perfumers to the Prince and Princ. is
of Wales, awl Duke and Duchess of York, Cockspur.street ;

yard ; Dicey and Sutton, Bow Church-yard; Bst.elay and Son,

ford-street ; Davison, 59, Meet-street; Rigge,tis,Clitapside ; Bol-
ton, Tutt, Royal Exchange ; and by most principal Periarnera
and Medicine Venders in the United Kingdon-..
Also persons who wear false hair ought to use no other hut the
Russia Oil, as it is not only 'the best for dressing, as it does not
clog the hair, but also prevents the catching of den ases, as no per-
smtlia: wears false hair knows what subject it may be tileti It ore.
Ladies and Gentlemen residing in the country, by enchoing a
one pound note in a letter to the Proprietor, will receive by re-
turn of coach one guinea's worth.
Merchants, Captains, and Country Shopkeepers, sending their
Orders .o any Wholesale Perfumers, or Medicine Voudera they
deal with isi London, will receive Itberal allowance.
Be sure to order Yale Cei Rlllll6 OIL, as there are many
sumac wits.

In the year 1806 I broke my leg two different times in the
sante week, and it was so badly set as to oblige me to walk with
my knee on a wooden leg for six years, the tits three of which
I tried several of the must eminent Surgeons in London, the LA
of whom was Mr. Ashley Cooper, until he prim .linced me in.
curable, which was in the year 1809. I then begged of him to
cut off my kg ; in answer to w:uch he observed, that ampui awe
would be the death of me, therefore he declined this opera.,,,t,
In the year 181:!' you having cured my brother of a most
tress'ng held-ache, be recomtreilded me to you: I attended on
my wooden leg, when my kg inia,ured one inch mid three qii..t.
