WILLIAM JOHNSON, in tendering his sincere
thanks to his Friends, the Nobility, Gentry, and Public
of the Vicinity, for the flattering patronage he has received
since he opened the above Premises, begs respectfully to inti-
mate to them that he purposes to greatly
ENLARGE HIS PRESENT ESTABLISHMENT,

for the latter of which he has entered into extensive Contracts

with some of the

FIRST DAIRIES IN THE SOUTH OF SCOTLAND,
and will thus be enabled, not only in quality, but in price, to
bid defiance to competition.
W. J. trusts the experience he has gained while serving,
Wholesale, for the past ten years, the principal Dealers in Game
in St. John's Market, has given him an advantage which, aided
by the arrangements he has made for a regular supply of real
NORFOLK TURKEYS, SURREY CAPONS, SCOTCH
DUCKS, GEESE, and CHESHIRE CHICKENS, and his
determination to Sell at the
SMALLEST REMUNERATING PROFIT,

will insure to the Public a really good Article at fidly 30 per
cent. below ordinary charges, and gain for him that reward
enterprize should merit.
As W. J. keeps none but the very best Articles, it is useless
to dilate on their excellence ; suffice it to say, that each is WAR-
RANTED, and dressed ready for the cuisine—boned or larded at
the will of the Purchaser, in the most modern Metropolitan
styles.
Hampers of GAME for Presents, at all Prices. Country or
Post Orders promptly executed.

WILLIAM JOHNSON,
CONTRACTOR FOR GAME, &c.,
NEAR THE PHEASANT INN, QUEEN SQUARE.

THE APOLLO SHIRT.
CAUSE. It is generally admitted that amongst the
various articles of clothing, there is nothing
so difficult to procure as a perfect fit in Shirts ;
in fact it is impossible, according to the pre-
sent mode of the shape and manufacture, that
it should be otherwise;_ every movement of
the body of the Shirt affects the position and
cleanliness of the breast, even in the mere
process of putting it on, as the body of the
common Shirt is so intimately connected with
the breast that the action cracks the starch,
and lays the first foundation of creases and
soiled lines; and when on, the action of the
arms and ordinary movements of the person,
without affecting the correct fit and appear-
ance of the breast, is quite unprovided for,
from there being no firm line of demarkation
between the breast and body, and also from
its improper form.
DISCOVERY. After the close attention and practical obser-
vance of several years to Shirt making, the
subscriber feels confident in the merits of the
discovery he is now offering to the public ; he
has derived the name from the general resem-
blance which the shape of the breast bears to
that classic and symbolic figure of antiquity,
the Lyre of Apollo, the breast being in that
form, is contained within a beautifully
stitched and firm band, cut out of one piece
of cloth entirely surrounding it and the collar;
the band resting in fair balance on the neck

and shoulders, acts upon the collar and breast

in the same manner as a frame to a picture,
ADVANTAGES.thus completely preventing the continual ac-
tion of the other parts of the Shirt, affecting
the position of the breast in the slightest man-
ner, whilst the peculiar shape of the breast,
forming an apex at the bottom, marks its pro-
per place, which, upon putting it on, it imme-
diately assumes and maintains; here the un-
necessary surplus length of plaits occasioned
by the square bottom of the common Shirt is
avoided, thus removing, in a great measure,
one of the chief difficulties in fitting a Shirt.
The indentation on the sides of the breast of
the APOLLO SHIRT, allows complete room
for the play of the arms and braces without
interfering with the position of the breast, an
object most unaccountably overlooked in all
the Shirts at present in use,—in short, the
most violent exercise may be resorted to,
without hazarding the chance of removing the
breast from the position it ought to maintain,
ECONOMY. coupled with this advantage, that the APOLLO
SHIRT, from its inability to crease, will be
perfectly clean, when the common Shirt is
completely soiled from the same amount of
wear.
In a Shirt that fits, the economy of wear
must be self-evident ; with this is combined
the BEST MATERIALS that money and
judgment can select, whilst the prices charged
for the APOLLO SHIRTS bear no relation to
those charged for many qualities of the com-
mon Shirts in use.
CAUTlON.—Parties imitating WAGGOTT'S APOLLO
SHIRT will render themselves liable to
prosecution.
Prices, 6s. 6d., is. 6d., Bs. 6d. Inspection invited.

NOTICE.

FURS AND OTHER WINTER STOCK

REDUCED TO COST PRICE.

1/1-R. ROGERSON announces to the 'Ladies of Li-
Tll verpool and its Vicinity, that, owing to the unprece-
dented mildness of the season in the months of November and
December, his Stock being more than usually extensive at this
season of the year, he has come to the conclusion of Reducing
the whole to Cost Price, in order to effect a clearance of as
much as possible, to make room for Spring Goods. The Furs
are all of the best manufacture, and thoroughly seasoned.
13 and 15, Church-street, January 24, 1848.
N.B.—An extensive and well-assorted Stock of Family
Mourning, and Funerals conducted as usual.

TO THE LADIES OF LIVERPOOL AND ITS
VICINITY.
IN consequence of the unprecedented depression of
Trade in all parts of the Kingdom,

G. IRELAND,
OF 92, BOLD-STREET,
has come to the determination of Selling the whole of his
valuable and extensively-assorted
STOCK OF FURS,
comprising every description of Skins that are imported, and
manufactured into all the
NEWEST AND MOST APPROVED
PARISIAN AND LONDON FASHIONS
AT PRICES CONSIDERABLY REDUCED.
In inviting the Ladies to an inspection thereof, he does not
wish to hold out any absurd inducement. He feels, however,,
gratified in observing, that as he purchases his Skins precisely-
upon the same terms as the largest Wholesale Houses, and also
Mauufactures them, he obtains thereby an advanta e over the
smaller purchaser, who merely retails them, and is enabled to
charge much lower than they possibly can. The Establish-
ment is, moreover, exclusively devoted to the SALE of FURS;
and the great extent and variety of the Stock will not be found
surpassed in any Retail House in England.
SABLE GOODS will this year be fully TWENTY-FIVE PER
CENT. LOWER than similar Goods were last Season.
To ALTERATIONS and REPAIRS it will always be his
study to devote as much attention and care as if he was en-
gaged in the manufacture of new articles; and as he never
trusts them to other than the most clever artisans the trade can
produce, and takes every care that all the departments Obis
House are under his own inspection, and on the premises,h
s
has the utmost security for the punctual and faithful execution
of every order with which he may be entrusted.

WALTER BOSTOCK,

RECElVESregularly a supply of this Article
from the
GUTFA PERCHA COMPANY,
and has a number of experienced hands at work in applying it
to the SOLES of BOOTS and SHOES, in such a manner as to
make them PERFECTLY WATERPROOF and durable. This
substitute for leather recommends itself to the economist, as
well as to those who desire to keep their feet PERFECTLY
WARM and DRY. the charges not being more than for the old
method.
W. B. takes this opportunity of thanking his Customers for
their continued support, and respectfully informs them he has
made numerous IMPROVEMENTS in the MANUFACTURE of
LADIES' AND GENTLEMENS' BOOTS AND SHOES,
and invites their attention, and the Public generally, to his pre-
sent Stock, having added recently
CONSIDERABLE IMPORTATIONS OF FRENCH
GOODS,
of the very best makes—altogether forming a Stock of such
variety that is not to be seen elsewhere.
In consequence of the depression in trade generally, and the
lower prices of some of the materials used in the Boot and Shoe
Business, W. B. has a FRESH CALCULATION made in the
COST OF MANUFACTURE, and as he is determined his Esta-
blishment shall be the CHEAPEST IN THE KINGDOM, he
has made
