Many thousand persons can testify the happy efects they have received from it, when every other medical assistance had failed.

To the Curious in WRITING, and such as would wish to keep COPIES of their LETTERS, NOTES, &c.

JONES's POLYGRAPHIC and MANIFOLD WRITERS; or, Letter-writing and Copying Portfolio Books, for writing without Pen or Ink. These Books are made the same as all other Letter-case Books; and when travelling, can be put into a Writ ing Desk; and when any Lady or Gentlemen would send a letter to a friend, while writing the said letter, a Copy is also kept in the POLYGRAPHIC BOOK, and that far superior to any other method yet invented, and as black and lasting as those wrote with Pen and Ink. The styles you write with want no repair, write quicker treble than quills do single. They will be found most useful to Ladies or Gentlemen travelling, and where sometimes copies or orders of two or three are to be sent, either in the Military or Naval Department, as the one writing will produce the same effect, and also keep the Copy at the same time.

In short, to point out the extensive utility of these Books would be difficult in an Advertisement; it is

Elizabeth Statham, Newcastle-stree', Shoreditch, from a Fall, sprained her back so much, as to be inca pable of continuing in her place, was, by the use of Dr. Hodson's Imperial Oil, perfectly cured in a short time.

The son of Mr. A. M'Phearson, of Cambridge, 19 months old, received a Fall, by which he was much brused; after every surgical advice to no purpose, Dr. Hodson's Imperial Oil restored him to the free use of his limbs.

Mr. FALEUR respectfully announces to the Public,sion, will include all the Empresses and Queens in in addition to his improvements in the composition of MINERAL TEETH, which have always given so much satisfaction, that he has planned and brought to perfection an effectual method of introducing an Artificial Palate, so as completely to relieve the sufferer.For this invention of his art, Mr. F. is enabled to refer to Field Officer lately returned from India, whose Teeth and Palate were shot away in the Mahratta War, and whose sufferings and privations in consequence were great for several years; but he is now so far rehieved as to be enabled to eat, drink, and talk with case and satisfaction.

Mr. F. again begs leave to caution the Public against the invidious attacks of an advertising Dentist, who, by frequent publications, endeavours to injure him. Mr. Faleur, being honoured with an extensive portion of public favour, can feel no other sentiment for this envious, disappointed, and irritable old man, but pity And Mr F. is confident, that while he continues to give satisfaction to those who honour him with their commands, no efforts of an ungenerous enemy can injure him with a British Public.
