~ PA RM E l. E, Dental Surgeons, of Bond st.
New York, having practised the three past winters
in this city, respectfully announce TO their friends
and the public that they have concluded to keep
their Washington Office open during the entire year
in future, at their present location on Pennsylvania
avenue, near Tenth street, where both of the
partners may always be found in attendance. They
respectfully tender their professional services to their
friends and the public, and invite all who may re-
qulre the advice and skill of the experienced and
practical dentist TO call them, learn their terms
and examine their claims to public confidence and
patronage. They would particularly call attention
to their patent method of fastening artificial teeth
when set on gold plate which is used by them alone
in the city Of Washington. The most prominent
advantages are the following:
LIST. 1t saves the pain attendant upon the removal
of the roots Of the front teeth when in healthy
diton, and makes those roots highly useful in fast
enne the artificial teeth
I'd. 1t gives the teeth greater frmness, rendering
them always much less troublesome and mere use
full in the process of mastication than the common
mode.
Sd. 1t renders it easy to remove and replace the
teeth, which, together with the peculiar simplicity
of the fastenngs, enable the wearer to keep them al
ways clean.
The great improvement secured by this patent
needs but to be in order to be understood and
used to be appreciated 1t is universally commend
ed by those who have awaited themselves of its ad-
vantages.

scented to me letters from several friends in New

containing the strongest and the most favorable tes-
timonals both as to the excellence of his private
character and his superior professional quallfca-
tons. These satisfactory evidences of the man
and the Dentist induced me at once to engage the
professional services of Mr.. Dodge for my own

personal experience, to add our own equally favor
able testimony in his favor gentleman and a
skilful dentist. This testimony is thus given by

ITOwELL,s Patent Tanning Machine

III The great saving of time and labor effected by
this machine renders it one of the most valuable of
modern inventions, being of the utmost Importance
to those already engaged in the manufacture of eath
err besides offering the greatest inducements to 9TH
ers for starting the business
BY this machine, which in it's operation strictly
follows tho principles of the old way, all kinds of
hides and skins may be tanned, not only so as to
produce superior article Of leather, but with sa-
wing Of seventyfve per cent. in time and fifty per
cent. in labor, besides great economy in Bark or
tanning material.
tnnnery in which the improved method was
adopted, would by its savings alone, be attended
with large profits, whilst neghboring one where
the old plan was pursued would be losing money.
The invention, which has been awarded gold
medal by the American Institute as being the most
valuable improvement ever introduced into this
branch Of manufactures has given the highest salts
faction in the different States in which It is in use.
In the opinion of practical men who have adopted
the improvement, at the cost of about five hundred
dollars an establishment can be started which will
two thousand sides of sole leather or four thou
sand calf skins per annum, at fifty per cent less than
the usual expense of manufacture. Where greater
amount Of business is required to be DONE addl-
tonal outlay, of course, will be necessary BY this
machine sole leather can be thoroughly tanned in
twenty to thirty days, upper leather in two weeks,
and calfskIns in from three to seven days. The
subscribers offer for sale single and county rights
for the above and will afford the most liberal facii-
ties to those purchasing State rights for the purpose
ofreseng to counties or individuals. A neat mod
ell OF the machine, showing its action and construc-
ton, WILL If required, be furnished gratis to all pur-
chasers.
For further particulars, address (post paid) Blu
chanan q Co, at the office Of the Albion newspaper
| New York.
One of these machines will be exhibited in opera
ton at the great national fair at Washington city.
Persons at a distance who may be unable to be
present at the fair, would do well to procure some
friend at Washington, to attend and examine for
them the great advantages Of this improvement.
