A CARD.
T BEG leave to announce, that, owing to the increas-
ing demands of my Printing Business on my time and at-
tention, I have now altogether RETIRED from the BOOK-
SELLING DEPARTMENT. Mr. JOHN WALKER, 97, Bold-
street, three doors from St. Luke's Church, has purchased fl'om
me a considerable portion of myStock, including Bibles, Watts'
Psalms and Hymns, the New Selection and Congregation
Hymnbooks, &c. ' • and has made arrangements for the delivery
of the Reviews, Magazines, and other Periodicals, hitherto
supplied by me. He will furnish all such as have been pre-paid
to me for the present year, and receive payment for those which
have been already supplied.
I trust that my friends will find this arrangement agreeable
to them, and most cordially recommend Mr. WALKER to their
support.
50, Lord-street, February 28, 1846. DAVID MARPLES.

JOHN WALKER, referring to the above note, most respect-
fully solicits from the friends of Mr. MARPLES a transference
to him of their favours in the Bookselling and Stationery Busi-
ness. He has made arrangements for the punctual delivery of
the various Reviews and other Periodicals, and has formed con-
nexions with several of the first Publishing Houses in the king-
dom, which will enable him to execute all orders for Books, es-
pecially New Publications, on the shortest notice.

PLETELY OBVIATED.
MR. BAKER, MECHANIST, FROM LONDON,
Distinctly Patronized by the Society of Arts and the
Universities of Oxford and Cambridge.
TO THE NOBILITY, CLERGY. AND GENTRY.
My LADIES, LORDS, AND GENTLEMEN,
ON my
visit to Liverpool this season, I have had the
satisfaction of finding that the application of my inven-
tion for the removal of imperfections in Windows and Doors,
and making them p-rfectly Air-tignt, has met with the full and
flattering approval of those who, in previous years, honoured
me with their patronage. The consequence has been a vast in-
crease in the number of those who I am proud to acknowledge
as my patrons in this town and neighbourhood.
My engagements elsewhere render it imperative that I should
leays Liverpool the beginning of April; and I am anxious,
therefore, to return my cordial thanks for the patronage which
I have received, and respectfully to request, that, if you have
any further commands, you will be pleased to address them to
36, SPRING-PLACE, IsLiNarox, and I will call without expense
to you,

I have the honour to be, with all due deference,
Your most obedient servant,
THOS. BAKER.
N.B.—Mr. Baker respectfully intimates to the Gentry of Li-
verpool, that the increase of patronage lie received last season,
together with the flattering approval of those who, in the pre-
vious years, honoured him with their orders, has induced him
to pay another visit. And when he states that, in three years,
he has rendered upwards of 15,000 Windows and Doors imper-
vious to wind, rain, and dust, the system needs no further com-
ment. The number of Families in Liverpool for whom he has
applied his plan is upwards of 2,500, and he has received up-
wards of 1,000 recommendations.
The limits of this advertisement would embrace only a small
portion of his numerous Patrons in this district ; he begs leave,
however, to subjoin a list of some of those who have experi-
enced the benefit of his remedy:—

MR. BAKER'S IMPROVED SELF-ACTING AIR-TIGHT
DOOR AND WINDOW SLIDES,
which preclude the possibility of wind, rain, dust, or a draught
of cold air rushing into a room from Windows or Doors, how-
ever old or irregular previous to Mr. B.'s application.
Inside Doors made complete, with slide attached.. ss. 6d. each.
Mahogany ditto Os 6d. each.
Windows, however imperfect, regulated, so that in summer
they are impervious to dust, and, in winter, perfectly free from
draught, Is. 6d. each, (materials and workmanship included.)
Windows thus improved preclude the useless application of sand-
bags, wedges, and all other ineffectual methods ; never make a
rattling noise in boisterous weather; will open instantaneously
for the requisite admission of pure air, and are warranted to
last seven years.
Mr. BAKER begs leave to submit to the notice of his Patrons
his improved Slide for external Doors, warranted to he imper-
vious to rust, at 7s. 6d. each; and intimates to thosegentlemen
who are about having their Houses PAINTED, that they_winiil find
a decided advantage from having their Doors and Ledoiz.
secured from dust as well as from wind and draught,

tutting from imperfect Windows and Doors.—Read Abeructiteg
