It is a fact perhaps not generally known, that one of our
principal vocalists owes much of his celebrity and success to
the use of certain mineral substitutes for his natural teeth,
which, a few years ago, had become decaed to so alarming a
degree, that he had actually made up his mind to quit his pro-
fession altogether. He bad from time to time procured various
seets of Artificial Teeth, but these were generally so unsuitably
arranged, and so improperly fixed, as to be of little use;
much that his pronunciation of the letters w, v, s, h, t, and th,
was at all times defective, and sounded discordantly upon the
ear. Chance at length, •introduced him to Monsieur Malian,
the Surgeon Dentist, of No. 46, Bold-street, Liverpool, who
constructed for him a set of Mineral Teeth of the most sur-
passing beauty and durability, and so admirably arranged, that
all harshness of utterance soon vanished. lie has now worn
them tor the last two years, without the least inconvenience in
retaining them in their places.
