5, ST. GEORGE'S-CRESCENT.

M 1 EASTEE having been in the habit, for these Fifteen
114 • Yeari • past, of Importing from the Continent every
description of Article in the Fancy Line for the Wholesale
and Export Trade, is now enabled to /offer to the Public
FRENCH CLOCKS, PORCELAIN ORNAMENTS.
ACCORDIONS, (of the most recent construction,) and a
variety of other FANCY ARTICLES, at such Retail Prices
that no other House in the Trade can compete with.
The advertiser takes this opportunity of observing, that his
establishment, although extensive, is conducted on a scale of
economy that enables him to undersell houses which, in
imitation of the gin palaces of London, expect to mislead the
public with dazzling and expensive fixtures, and thereby
obtain enormous profits.

THE HUMAN HAIR.

valuable supply has just been forwarded, and will be
sold wholesale at Messrs. Sutton and Co., Bow Church-yard,
Barclay and Son, Farringdon-street, and retail, at the Soho
Bazaar, London. The sale of this inestimable Oil will not
be confined to the perfumers, but for thebetter accommoda-

tion of the public' will be sold in respe&able shops in any
business. The Botanic Oil has obtained a pre-eminence
over every other article sold avowedly for the same purpose,
and the sale is daily increasing. It has been sanctioned by
Parliament. Testimonials of its efficacy were submitted by
the Right Hon. W. Huskisson in April, 1830. The Botanic
Oil renders the hair luxuriantly rich, and preserves the scalp
cool, soft, and healthy it eradicates dandruff and every
cause of baldness, and will prevent the hair turning grey to
extreme old age; it counteracts the bad effects of salt water,
and will reinstate the hair when effected by change of climate,
sickness, &c.; and the price is unprecectentiv low. Sold in
covered jars, 2s, 3s 6d, and ss; in bottles at lOs each. As
a further inducement to purchasers 3 5s jars of the Botanic
Oil will be sold for 14s; and 6 for 275. A touch of the Bo-
tanic Oil on the shaving brush will render that operation easy
to the tenderest skin. Sold wholesale and retail at the Pro-
prietors, PARKER-STREET, and may be had at the Office of
this Paper.

AND FILLING DECAYED TEETH WITH MINERAL MARMORATUM.
MONS. LE DRAY & CO., Su-ikeon-Dentists, respectfully
inform the nobility, gentry, and inhabitants of Liverpool and
its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment perma-
nently at No. 70, S EEL-STREET, eight doors from Berry-
street. They continue to fill up the cavities of decayed teeth
-with the 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, preventing and curing
the tooth-ache, arresting all further progress of decay, and
rendering th." operation of extraction unnecessary. The mi-
neral not only converts a mere shell into a sound and useful
tooth, but by completely stopping up the cavity prevents
effectually that unpleasant taint of the breath whichinvaria-
bly accompanies a decayed tooth.
Among the various disorders of the teeth and gums, there
is 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 ap-
plication 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, answering all
the purposes of mastication and articulation, remaining per-
fectly secure in their places, and may be taken out and repla-
ced by the wearer with the greatest facility—at the following
Paris charges :
A single Artificial Tooth £o 10 0
A complete Set 5 5 0
A complete Set of Natural Teeth on fine
gold plate
An entire Set of Natural or Terro-Me-
tallic Teeth, highly finished, in the first
style, with fine gold sockets, usually
charged Forty Guineas
Loose teeth fastened, arising either from age, disease, or
mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectually remedied. Ar-
tificial 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

MESSRS. PERRY and Co:, SURGEONS, may be
personally consulted from Nine in the Morning till
Ten at Night, and on Sundays from Nine till Two, at
No. 22,.SLATER-STREET, near Duke-street, Liverpool,
(private entrance first door up the passage ;)
No. 2, Bale-street, Lower Mosley-street, near to St. Peter's
Church, Manchester, and No. 4, great Charles-street, Bir-
mingham: of whom may be had (gratis) with each box of
pills their Treatise on Venereal Disease, Gonorrhma, Gleets,
and Stricture, including Practical Obiervations on Seminal
Weakness, arising from early abuses, so that all persons can
obtain an immediate Cure, with ease, secrecy, and safety.
It is a melancholy fact, that thousands fall victims to the
Venereal Disease owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate
men, who, by the use of that deadly poison, Mercury, ruin
the constitution, and cause ulcerations, with blotches on the
head, face, and body, dimness in the sight, noise in the ears,
deafness, obstinate gleets, and nodes on the shin bones, till
at length a general debility and decay of the constitution
ensues, and a melancholy death puts a period to their dread-
ful sufferings.

PERRY7S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS, price 2s.
9d. and Ils. per box, a certain, safe, and the most speedy re-
medy ever discovered for the permanent and effectual cure of
venereal diseases, gonorrhoea, gleets, strictures, semina-
weakness, in the loins, affections of the kidneys, gravel, lum-
bago, local debility, irritation of the bladder or urethra, and
other diseases of the urinary passages, frequently performing
a perfect cure. in the short space of three days, by one small
pill for a dose, with ease, secrecy, and safety. The certainty
with which they are continually administered can be attested
by many thousands. Tne Specific Pills root out every parti-
cle of insidious poison, purifying in their progress the whole
mass of fluids. They not only remove the disease, but reno-
vate by their action the different functions of the body, ex-
pelling the grosser humours. and in a manner so mi!d and
imperceptible as to convince the most sceptical of their asto-
nishing and unequalled powers. They neither contain mer-
ctry nor any other mineral, and may be taken without the
slightest suspicion of discovery. They require no restraint of
diet, loss of time, or hindrance of business, but effect a corn.
plete cure, without the least exposure to the patient. At any
period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will he well
to have recourse to the Specific Pills, for when taken before
the disease has made its appearance it acts as a certain pre-
ventative, by moving the complaint effectually and secretly.
Messrs. PERRY, Surgeons, continue to direct their stu-
dies to those dreadful deblities arising from the too free and
indiscriminate indulgence of the passions, which not only
occasion a numerous train of nervous affections, and entail
on its votaries all the enervating imbecilities of old age,-but
weaken and
,destroy all the bodily senses, occasioning loss of
imagination, judgment, and memory, indifference and aver-
sion for all pleasures. In that distressing state of debility or
deficiency, whether the consequence of baneful habits, exces-
sive drinking, or any other cause, by- w hich the powers of
the constitution become enfeebled, they offer a firm, safe, and
speedy restoreti n to sound and evorou. health.
