BINYON'S ELASTIC CHEST EXPANDER.
STOOPING of the SHOULDERS and CONTR'AC-
TION of the CHEST are entirely prevented, and gently
and effectually removed in Youth, and Ladies and Gentlemen,
by the occasional use of the IMPROVED ELASTIC CHEST
EXPANDER, which is light, simple, easily applied, either
above or beneath the dress, and worn without any uncomforta-
ble constraint or impediment to exercise. To Young Persons
especially it is highly beneficial, immediately producing an
evident IMPROVEMENT in the FIGURE, and tending-greatly
to prevent the incursion of PULMONARY DISEASES; whilst
to the Invalid, and those much enga •BLtitary pursuits,
such as Reading or Studying., W g, Drawing, or Music, it
,is found to be invaluable, as pands the Chest and affords a
great support to the back tis made in Silk ; and can be for-
warded, per post, by 1 ALFRED BINYON, Sole Manufacturer

bago. Sold by the Proprietor, G. C. SERJEANT, No. 7, Lo-

The astonishing success which has crowned the application
of this external Medicine in the most hopeless and deplorable
cases, when the unhappy sufferer had despaired of ever gaining
even the least relief, and this after the ablest - and every
other means had completely failed, most y entitles it to the
attention of the afflicted.
This excellent Medicine, so un* rsally esteemed, is unat-
tended with the least danger or convenience; hundreds have
experienced its happy and utary effects since it was first
introduced; and such ar e properties of this invaluable
Specific that persons ouring under the most distressing
Rheumatism, 'Rhea is Gout, and Lumbago, and rendered
thereby incapable of assisting themselves, have been relieved
in a few hours.

Amongst many which are being daily received are thefollow-
ing testimonials

Well-street, Cripplegate.
Sru,—l have been several weeks confined to my bee, by Gout
and Rheumatism, not a part from my head to my feet free from
pain, said as_helnlesa.as au infaut riot-elrgn,a fin, er
move. in this unpleasant situation I was informed ny my_ me-
dical attendant he had applied all the usual remedies, and that
I might remain months in my deplorable situation.
Fortunately your remedy was made known to me, or I might
have been to this day confined to my bed. After a close appli-
cation of four days, my troublesome companion began to dis-
appear ; in a week I was capable of walking about my room,
and by another week's perseverance in the use of your Medi-
cine was enabled to leave London. Fearful of another attack,
you will please to send six bottles.—l am, Sir, your obedient
servant,— D. W. STONE.

Morley's Hotel, Strand, 18th August, 1846.
Si 11,-1 have hitherto had a prejudice against having recourse
• to advertised medicines, but as I have for years been a severe
sufferer from Lumbago, as well as Sciatica, and having tried
several of the most eminent Physicians of London and Paris, I
was induced by a friend to make a trial of your liquid, called
" Serjeant's Lotion." I think it in gratitude due to you to say,
in less than an hour from the time I applied the Lotion, I felt
the most pleasant and indescribable relief. The immediate
effect was to produce a short but tranquil and most refreshing
slumber, from which I awoke to enjoy that which was, from its
• novelty, the greatest happiness—perfect quietude and freedom
from pain. The number of poor souls that suffer as I have is
immense, and if the publication of this testimony can induce
one to accept of the salvation you offer, I shall feel that I have
not lived in vain.—With many thanks, am yours,
HENRI VILLENNEVE.

feel in duty bound to acknowledge, that after suffer-
ing acute pains from Sciatica, or severe Rheumatic affection is
the hip-joint, and being deprived of rest, I was persuaded to
try your embrocation, and have the pleasure to say that after
three applications I was restored to my usual health ; and, al-
though two years have passed, I have no return of the disorder.
—I am, Sir, gratefully yours, EDWARD NOYES.

"SIR,—Having been informed of tne surprising cure of Mr.
Barnes, of St. Paul's Churchyard, who was so severely afflicted
by Rheumatism, the intense pain causing delirium, that he was
compelled to be confined by a strait waistcoat to prevent his
committing any violence, and whose case was considered en-
tirelytopeless, I was induced to Ascertain the particulars, and
being satisfied of the truth of my information, encouraged me
to make a trial of your most invaluable Medicine,
~ severe a
entertainjuntg
little hopes of success, having been many years s
ferer, and tried many said to be very valuable remedies. 1 an;
Very happy in being able to add ray testimony of the benefit
I derived: after a few days' application the use of my limbs are
perfectly restored, and I am now able to attend Inv business,
and, making an allowance for my age, neverFwas better in my
life. To those. however severely afflicted and hopeless their
case may have been pronounced, I beg of them to make a trial,
feeling quite satisfied they will be restored to the use of their
limbs, from the severe cases that have yielded to this Medicine.
Health is a great blessing to those who can enjoy it, but to
those who are deprived, none feels it so severely as the trades-
man or mechanic, as it generally causes loss of business, and
brings ruin on families. I shall at all times feel it my duty to
make it knowato those afflicted, to evince how grateful I am
for my restoration, and am, Sir, yours truly,

SIR,—Mr. Thom Ason, National Schoolmaster of this Town
desires me to send you the particulartfrespectinn. a Son of his,
who had been seriously ill for thr years and ehalf, and who
has derived the greatest benefit om the use of your medicines,
after trying all ordinan reso ees without effect. The Boy is
eight years of age, of strun sor scrofulous constitution. He
seems to have had a Pleu zy which ended in a large collection
of matter in the Ches which eventually formed a passage
through the wales of e Chest, which ended in three fistulous
sores, which contin to discharge large quantities of pus up
to May, when he as induced to try your medicines; at this
date he was in a apparent dying condition, and in the highest
degree of Ma 771113 or Consumption. He had severe hectic
fever, the urine depositing large quantities of sediment—con-
stant distressing cough—no appetite—and the Stomach reject-
, ing nearly every thing he took, both food and medicine, he be-
gan by taking Ave of your Pills night and morning, which were
gradually increased to ten, which in a short time had the effect
od completely curing the Cough, the Stomach affections, and
restoring the urine to its natural state. m.
--4trenath and flesh
are also restored, and his appetite keen and digestion good.

Messina, Leghorn, 21st February, 1845.
To PROFIii,SOR HOLLOWAY.
slll,—Various circumstances prevented the possibility of my
t anking you before this time for your politeness in sending
me your pills as you did. I now take this opportunity of send-
ing you an order for the amount, and, at the same time, to add
that your pills have effected a cure of a disorder in my Liver
and Stomach, which all the most eminent of the Faculty at
home, and all over the Continent, had not been able to effect ;
nay, not even the waters of Carlsbad and Marienbad. I wish
to have another Box and a Pot of the Ointment, in case any
of my family should ever require either.
Your most obliged =I obedient servant,
