And filling Decayed Teeth with Minere Marmoratum.
Moss. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeoll,Dentists, respect-
fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and fit habitants of Liver-
pool and its vicinity, that they have op4iied an Establishment.
permanently at No. 38, SEEL.STREET, eight doors from
Berry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De-
cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the
least pain, heat, or pressure ; it is placed into the cavity in
an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds gets hard, pre-
venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all further pro-
gress of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction
unnecessary. The Mineral not only converts a mere shell
into a sound and useful tooth, hut, by completely stopping
up the cavity, prevents effectually that unpleasant taint of
he breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth.

Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums. there
are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally
prevalent, than Scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss
of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It
affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and is
the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To those so
affected, Mons. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them,
that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint
by a single application,. without the slightest pain.
Artificial and Natural Teeth, of surpassing beauty, fixed
from one to a complete set, without extracting the roots or
giving any pain, without springs, wires, or ligatures, an-
swering all the purposes of Mastication and Articulation,
remaining perfectly secure in their places, and may be taken
out and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility,
it the following Paris charges :
A single Artificial Tooth
A complete Set
A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine
gold plate
An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal-
lic Teeth, highly finished, in the first
style, with fine gold sockets, usually
charged 40 guineas
Loose Teeth fastened, arising either from age, disease, or
mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectually remedied.
Artificial Teeth out of repair, remodelled to fit the mouth,
and restored equal in beauty and durability to their original
state. Attendance from Nine till Seven, and on Sundays
from Nine till Two.
MiZr For the convenience of country patients, Monsieur
LE DRAY and Co. are enabled to fix a partial or complete
set of Teeth at one sitting, without the least pain or incon-
venience.

A correspondent of the Derbyshire Chronicle states, that
on Wednesday last, the body of Ann Johnson, of Duckman-
ton, who has been dead ten or eleven years, was interred in
Sutton church-yard. The deceased had a very peculiar
disease—indee*, a disease of so extraordinary a character,
that the medical faculty were desirous of securing the body.
The friends of the deceased, in order to frustrate the attempts
of the agents, preserved the body until Wednesday, when it
was interred.

Our crier last week announced in the streets, with all due
form, that two stray dogs had come into his possession ; and
that the owners might have them again on paying the ex-
penses of " publishing and their tuition." An innocent by-
stander asked what tuition meant,—"Why wittles and
drink, man, to be sure, what else should it mean ?" was the
official's reply.—Merthyr Guardian.
A BASE AND DARING HOAX. —A most reprehensible
hoax has been committed on several highly respectable
tradesmen of Cheltenham, by orders purporting to come
from a solicitor at Gloucester, and requiring goods on a short
notice, at a given hour. The several orders were sent
through the post-office, and bore the signature (exactly imi-
tated) of the said attorney. One of our wine-merchants
executed an order for very costly foreign wines, among which
were four dozens of choice old Hockheimer. His suspicions
were luled by the solicitor having before been a bona fide
customer, which fact shows that the miscreant who laid the
plot must have well known both parties. There is, however,
no doubt that he will soon meet with the punishment which
he ao justly deserves, as active measures are being taken to
discover and secure hun.—Cheleenham Chronicle.
