To Messrs. Pearson & Co., 110, London-road, Liverpool.—
Gentlemen,—l have much pleasure in making you acquainted
with the great benefits I have realised in the use of Hollings-
worth's American Indian Sugar-coated Pills. '
For six months
I had been afflicted with severe pains in my side, stomach, and
back? attended also with great loss of appetite. In the hope of
alleviating my sufferings, I applied to several medical advisers,
tried a variety of means, and spent much money, but all to no
good purpose, for notwithstanding all the medicines I took, I
still got worse; and to such a state of weakness was I reduced,
that it was with great difficulty I could walk up stairs. My
stomach so loathed my food, that I became extremely weak
and hopeless, and expected not to live to see another Christmas-
day. Providentially I noticed an advertisement in the Liver-
pool Mercury, describing the renovating properties of your
palatable Pills; 1 procured a box at your establishment, and
made a trial by taking a dose morning; and evening for about

_ll.. 10, Slater-street, (on the right hand,) Liverpool, beg to
inform the inhabitants of Liverpool and vicinity, that they are
at length enabled to MAKE TEETH AVAILABLE TO ALL
CLASSES ; their price for a Single Tooth being 55., whatever
quantity may be required. This, they assure their Friends
and the Public, is the full price of their best Teeth; and the
price can only be increased by expensive mountings.
The mechanical department is filled by first-rate workmen
from London and Paris; and it is only the immense quantity
manufactured that enables them to fix their prices so low. All
operations of the Teeth equally moderate. Filling decayed
Teeth with the Mineral Mamoratum, 2s. fid. Artificial Teeth
repaired, remodelled, and brought to their former shape and
appearance.
They also fasten loose Teeth, particularly of aged persons,
whether arising from neglect, the use of calomel, disease of the
gums, or any other cause.
SCURVY IN THE GUMS EFFECTUALLY PREVENTED.

Among the various disorders of the mouth, there are none
more destructive than Scurvy, which, on first entering the
gums, causes them to bleed on the most trifling occasions. A
soft substance invariably accumulates around the necks of the
teeth, penetrating into the gums, which gradually waste away,
and the Teeth then become loose and drop out of their sockets,
and it is well known that the loss of Teeth arises more from
this cause than any other; in short, Scurvy in the Gums affects
individuals of all ages and constitutions, and if not speedily
removed, will be the primary cause of tooth-ache and decay.
Messrs. Coormane Co. are happy to state that they have
discovered a certain remedy for the removal of this distressing
malady, which, if used in conjunction with their VEGETABLE
ANO Y DONE TINCTURE, will entirely extirpate the complaint.—
