SCURVY in the GUMS EFFECTUALLY REMOVED.
ARTIFICIAL TEETH SUPPLIED
WITHOUT WIRES, SPRINGS, OR CLASPS.
LOOSE TEETH FASTENED.
And filling Decayed Teeth wish. Mineral Marmoratuin.
MONS. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respect-
fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liver-
pool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment
permanently at No. 70, SEEL-STREET, eight doors from
Berry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De;.
cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoraturn, 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-
°ress
of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction
unnecessary. The The Mineral not only converts a mere shell •
into a sound and useful tooth, but, by completely stopping
op 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, 7ritloot extracting the roots or
giving any pain, without springs, wires, or ligatures, an-
swering ail the purposes of Mastication and Articulation,
remaining perfectly secure in their places, and may be taken
ut and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility,,?- •
at the following Paris. charges :
A single Artificial-Tooth £0 10 0
A complete Set....
A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine ,

An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal-

AMERICAN HOSPITALITY.—At one town where I had stop-
ped, I had been reposing more than two hours when my door - -
was opened—but this was too common a circumstance to me
to think any thing of it ; the people would come into nay room
whether I was in bed or out of bed, dressed or not dressed;
and if I expostulated, they would reply " Never mind ; see
don't care, captain." On this occasion I called out " Well,
u'ladsn' lying. "yes
allow "yYoues to I
what do von want ?" " Are you Captain M— ?" said the
person walking up to thebree'dckwohnerlewlo v'
a;
,t'll'rroeLl4hiedonlr. to‘4v‘n\k;itelth, I
out seeing you any how. Of all the
humans, you're the one IT most wish to see." I told him I
was highly flattered. - " ell, now," said he, giving a jump,
and coining down right upon the bed in his great coat, " I 11
just tell yon; I said to the chap at the bar, ' Aint the captain
in your house ?" Yes;' says he, ' Then where is he ?'-says I.
'Oh,' says be, ' he's gone into his own room, and locked him-
self up ; be's a d—d aristocrat, and won't drink at the bar
with other gentlemeh !' So, said I, I've read M—'s work's,
and I'll he swamped if he is an aristocrat, and by the 'tarnal
I'll go up and see ; so here I am, and you're no aristocrat."
" I should think not,'" replied I, moving my feet away, whi, h
he was half sitting on. "Oh ! don't move ; never mind me,
captain, I'm quite comfortable. And how do you find your-
self by this time ?" " Very tired, indeed," replied I. " I
suspicion as much. Now d'ye.see, I left four or five good
fellows down below Who wish to see you ; I said I'd go up
first, and come down to them. The fact is, captain, we don t
like you should pass through our town without showing you
a little American hospitality." So saying Ire slid off the bed,
and went out of the room. In a minute he returned, bring-
ing with him four or five others, all of whom he introduced
sly name, and re-seated hin,self on my bed, while the others
took chairs. " Now, gentlemen," said he, "as I was telling
the captain we wish to show him a little American hospita- •
lity ; what shall it be gentlemen—what d'ye say—a bottle of
Madeira ?" An immediate answer not being returned,. he
continued—" Yes, gentlemen, a bottle of Madeira; at tni: !
expense, gentlemen, recollect that ; now ring the bell." "r ,
shall be most happy to take a glass of wine with you," ob.:''
served I, " but in my own room the wine must be at my ei.:74,
pease." "At your expense, captain ? well if it must - be,lr"
ton% care ; at your expense then captain, if you say so ; MA '')11
tou see we must show you a little American hospitality, ar
esid to them all down below ; didn't I, gentlemen ?' Th 1
i
wine was ordered, and it ended in my hospitable friends diitilt
,ng three bottles ; and then they all shook hands with nisi
leclaringh67.- happy they should be if I came to thg, :in.
