PARISIAN CORSETS,
67, BOLD-STREET, LIVERPOOL,
199, REGENT-STREET, LONDON.
ATRS. DAWSON begs to return her most grateful ac-
.ll-1- knowledgments to the Ladies of Liverpool and its
vicinity for the extensive patronage with which she has been
favoured during the last seven years, and in doing so she
trusts she may be permitted to advert to the decided superi-
ority of her CORSETS in conferring
flexibility and its consequent grace on the form, which, added
to the simplicity of their construction, (being without the
numberless seams so generally found in the common Corset,)
has long rendered them extensively patronised in the first
circles. It might, therefore, be superfluous to enlarge upon
their acknowledged merits ; but to Ladies who have not yet
made trial of them it may be requisite to observe that they
combine, in an eminent degree, entire exemption from pres-
sure, with that support so necessary to render the figure at
once unembarrassed and graceful. To Ladies of delicate
constitution, in some cases attended with irregular conforma-
tion, they have been pronounced by the most eminent of the
faculty as invaluable. The Corsets are manufactured by the
first London Workmen, and in the best English and French
material ; in the latter Mrs. Dawson flatters herself they will
be found, in point of durability, greatly superior to those
made in Paris, and, to meet the wishes of Ladies, she has
determined on selling the Single Coutie and Bason Corsets
at Parisian Prices.

N.B.—A choice assortment of French Patent Wove Stays.

PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ POWDERS.

JPRIESTLEY, CHEMIST, Lord-street, Liverpool, begs
• particularly to call the attention of his Friends and the
Public to his improved Preparation of the very justly cele-
brated article SEIDLITZ POWDERS, to form the SEID-
LITZ WATERS, which approach nearer than anything yet
discovered to the Chalybeate Waters of Germany. The
style of preparing PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ POWDERS is pe-
culiar to himself, and combines scientific skill with great ac-
curacy ; and though numbers of people unacquainted with
the business, and others, have of late years attempted imita-
tions, they have invariably been found to be spurious com-
pounds, neither possessing the agreeable flavour nor the me-
dicinal properties of the Seidlitz Waters.
Sold in Boxes, 2s. each, containing twenty-four Powders,
to make one dozen tumbler glasses, and in Tin Cases, 10s.
each. The latter are put up in a very eligible form for ex-
portation, or to use at sea, and will keep any length of time
in all climates. Prepared and sold only by JOHN PRIEST-
LEY, No. 52, Lord-street, where also may be had Seidlitz
Powders in Packets.
IMPROVED SODA POWDERS.

It has been observed that the Soda Water, when kept in
jars, parts with its carbonic gas; that carriage of it to a dis-
tance has been attended with risk and considerable expense ;
and that, from these inconveniences, its use has been con-
fined chiefly. to large cities and their environs. To obviate
these objections, and to extend the use of this agreeable and
efficacious Water, the ingredients for making it are offered
to the public.—Sold in Boxes, at is. 6d. each
FLUID EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA.

In this preparation are concentrated all the Medicinal Pro-
perties of Sarsaparilla Root. To persons, therefore, who,
from various causes, would experience great inconvenience,
or with whom it would be utterly impossible to prepare the
Compound Decoction, the Fluid Extract, which possesses
the advantages of portability and of keeping in any climate,
will be found a most desirable mode of employing this much
esteemed Medicine.
_

Two teaspoonsful of the Fluid Extract, put into a wine-
glass full of water, makes a preparation equal in strength to
half a pint of the Compound Decoction, formerly prescribed
by the London, Edinburgh. and Dublin Pharmacopoeias.
The diseases in which it has proved most beneficial are
those of the Skin; such as Scorbutic Affections, Eruptive
Diseases. Secondary Symptoms, &c., arising from a diseased
state of the system at large. For removing Blotches, Pim-
ples, Mi. trona the Face, this Medicine has no superior.
The extensive use and high reputation of this preparation
has led to numerous imitations, disguised by the name of
Syrup, Essences, &c. The whole medicinal virtues of the
Sarsaparilla consist in its extractive matter, and it possesses
no real property in the form of essence, while the Syrup is
inju►ious to the digestive organs by causing acid fermentation.
