Rowlands' Kalydor: An Eastern Botanical Discovery of surprising efficacy, for rendering the skin soft, clear, and fair, and for bestowing a. healthy roseate hue on the Complexion. AS a creator and conservator of a transparently fair skin, Ro wland's Kalydor may be said to exert an almost magical I power. Balmy, odoriferous, creamy, and perfectly free from all mineral admixture, it is distinguished for its extremely bland, purifying, and soothing effects upon the skin while by its action on the pores and minute secretory vessels, it expels all impurities from the surface, allays every tendency to inflammation, and thus effectually dissipates all redness, tan, pimples, spots, freckles, discolorations, and other unsightly cutaneous visitations. The radiant bloom it imparts to the cheek; the softness and delicacy which it induces on the hands, arms, and neck its capability of soothing irritation, removing cutaneous delects, and all unsightly appearances, render it indispensable to every toilet. The constant and persevering use of this invaluable medica- ment preserves and invigorates those important functions of the skin on which depend its purity and soilness—the neck, hands, and arms assuming and retaining the radiant whiteness so much admired, and affording so unequivocal a mark of attention to the niceties of the toilet and the graces of personal attraction To Gentlemen, who suffer from tenderness and irritation of the face after shaving. Rowland's Kalydor will have an unri. valled effect in alleviating and allaying irritation and smarting pain, and rendering the skin soft and smooth. It is invaluable as a renovating and refreshing wash during the heat and dust of summer, or frost and bleak winds of winter and, in cases of sun-burn,stings of insects, chi'blains, chapped- skin, or incidental inflammation, its virtues have long and exten- sively been acknowledged. ■■Its purifying and refreshing properties have obtained its exclu- sive selection by the Court, and the Royal Family of Great Britain, and those of the Continent of Europe, together with the elite of the aristocracy and Haute Volee fiom the sultry chmes of India, and the drawing-rooms of Calcutta and Madras, to the frozen realms of the Czar and the salons of St. Petersburg and Moscow. This exotic preparation is perfectly innoxious, acting in all cases by promoting a healthy tone of the minute vessels, and is the most elegant as well as effective toilet appendage hitherto sub- mitted to universal patronage. THE NURSERY. One of the most important uses of this invaluable preparation is its peculiar adaptation for the use of children and the purposes of the nursery. As a wash for infants, it cannot be too strongly recommended cooling, healing, and innoxious, it may be used by the most delicate lady or duld with assutauceofthe most perfect safety and effect: it preserves and beautifies the young and tender skin, and ensures it from derangement by external causes. Ladies who, while nursing, suffer pain from sore or inflamed nipples, will find an unfailing relief in the Kalydor; and, from its peculiar power to allay irritation and cool the mouth, it ren- ders pleasing and painless that most delightful task imposed by maternal duty. CAUTION. Its high and universal reputation causes unprincipled shop- keepers to offer spurious compounds for sale under the title of KALYDOR," composed of mineral astringents utterly ruinous to the complexion, and by their repellent action, endangtring health. It is, therefore, imperative on purchasers to see that the woids ROWLAND'S KALYDOR," are on the Envelope (an engraving of exquisite beauty from a steel plate by Messrs. Perkins, Bacon, and Co.) To protect the public from fraud, the hon. commissioners of stamps have directed the proprietors' name and address. thus- A.

All other" Kalydors" are FRAUDULENT IMITATIONS. EXTRAORDINARY NEW CASES! ATTESTING THAT THERE IS HEALTH FOR ALL HOIAOWATTS VZZNLS. THE following case of DROPSY can scarcely be called a cure, being so wonderful and extraordinary at to be little short of a miracle:— Mr. John Robinson, an opulent farmer at Grazie, residing in Wootton. in Bedfordshire, was lately reduced to the apparent extremities of death, being at the time so bloated with water as to be increased in size to double his usual bigness indeed, his legs had become so large around, that they actually burst is three places. In this most alarming and dangerous state, he medical man informed him that he could not possibly live more than two days longer!" Mr. Robinson, upon hearing this, instantly dismissed his doctor, and had recourse alone to the wonderful efficacy of Holloway's Pills, which not only saved his life, but likewise effectually expelled the water trom the system and restored him in a short space of time, by a steady perseve- rance in the use of the pills, to as sound and as perfect a state of health as ever he enjoyed. N.B.—Mr. Robinson, whose life has just been saved by these Pills, is well known to most persons, not only throughout Bed- fordshire, but also in the surrounding counties. AN ASTONISHING CURE OF A CONFIRMED LIVER COMPLAINT. Mrs. Mary Sandford, residing in Leather-lane, Holborn. Lon- don, had been labouring for five years under the effects of a dis- eased Liver, which produced Indigestion, Sick Headaches, Dim- ness of Sight, Lownessof Spirits, Irritability of Temper, Drow- siness, Occasionl Stwellings of the body and legs, with General Weakness and Debility. She attended the Hospitals, at different periods, for about three years, but she only got worse instead of better, and her recovvery at last appeared quite hopeless but, not withstanding the very bad stale of her health, she was, in about two months, restored to perfect health by the means alone of this all-powerfuland efficacious medicine-Holloway's Pills. Cure of a case of Great Debility of the System, occasioned by the baneful influence of Mercury, and the injurious effects of a long residence in tropical climates, by Holloway's Pills James Richards, Esq., a gentleman in the East India Com- pany's Service, and who had resided for the last seventeen years in different parts of India, where his constitution had become impaired from the influence of the climate, and the injurious aflects of powerful and frequent doses of that dangerous mineral calomel, which, together, made such inroads on his constitution as to oblige him to return home to England, and on his arrival he placed himself for some time under the care of a celebrated medical practitioner, but received no benefit from that medical gentleman's treatment. He was then advised by a friend (who had tried this medicine), to go through a proper couise of Hol- loway's Pills, which he did and in about four months his for- merly shattered frame was so completely invigorated as to enable him to prepare himself again for his immediate return to India, whither he willembaikia the coming spring of this year, 1845 This gentleman is now residing in Regent's Park, where be is well known, in counseqence of his opulence and liberality.

LONG LIFE, AND HAPPINESS, SECURED 'BY THAT POPULAR MED1CIN £ NO Medicine yet offered to the world ever so rapidly attained such distinguished celebrity; it is questionable if there be now any part of the cinlised globe where its extraordinary heal. ing virtues have not been exhibited. This signal success is not attributable to any system of advertising, but solely to the strong recommendations of parties cured by their use. I he Proprietors of Parr's Life Pills have now in their possession upwards of FIFTEEN HUSDRE" LETTERS, several of them from Clergymen of the Church of England, many from distinguished Dissenting Ministers, from gentlemen connected with the Army and Navy, also from Members of Parliament, Merchants, and last, though not least from members of the Medical Profession, and a skilful Analytical Chemist; all speaking in the highest terms of the value of this inestimable medicine. This is a mass of evidence in its favour beyond all parallel. The extraordinary properties of this medicine are thus descri- bed by an eminent physician, who says, "After particular obser- vation of the action of Parr's Pills, I sm determined, in my opinion, that the following are their true properties :— f. First-They increase the strength, whilst most other medi- cines have a weakening effect upon the system. Let any one take from three to four or six pills every twenty-four hour", and instead of having weakened, they will be found to have revived the animal spirits, and to have imparted a lasting strength to the body. Secondly—In their operations they go direct to the disease. After you have taken six oi twelve pills you will experience their effect; the disease upon you will become less and less by every dose you take, and if you persevere in regularly taking from three to six pills every day, your disease will speedily be entilely removed from the system. Thirdly-They are found after giving them a fair trial for a few weeks to possess the most astonishing and invigorating pro- perties, and they will overcome all obstinate complaints, and Restore Sound "Health there is a return of good appetite shoitly from the beginning of their use, whilst their mildnees as a purgative is a desideratum greatly required by the weak and delicate, particularly where violent purging is acknowledged to be injurious instead of beneficial. Fourilily-As ageneral Family Medicine they are exceedingly valuable, and no family shouid be without them, they may be used with perfect safety in any disease, for to every disease they are of inesfimable value. John Dale, Esq.. of Manchester, Lecturer on Chemistry, and Pupil of the late celebrated Dr. Dalton, F.R.S., in a letter addressed to the Proprietors in Lon- don, says 1 beg to state I find them wotthyof being recom- mended to the public for their efficacy and simplicity, and to be really vegetable pills, cootaiBiog, as they do nothing but what is of vegetable origin. With this assurance the public need have no fear of giving tliem a fair trial. H Fifthly-There is no medicine ever introduced to the public that has become so universally popular with females as P .\Ra'l LIFE PILLS. For all complaints peculiar to females they are of mostastonishing efficacy and they are confidently recommended to them for general use. A tria I of a box of these pills will at once prove the truth of this assertion. ) IMPORTANT TO THE PUBLIC. « We consider we are performing an act of humanity to the community of Van Die man's Land, in acknowledging that' statements have been made to us by several persons who have taken Parr's Life Pills with the most beneficial effect to them. Accounts of theirefficacy have been furnished us by various indi- viduals who have taken them, since the supply furnished by the patentees in England to Mr. Dowling but they have generally savoured so much of the marvellous, that we have hesitated to make the statements public. However, we are now satisfied from further accounts given to us, that to hesitate longer would be per- petrating an act of criminal omission to our fellow creatures, and having taking taken the pills ourselves with the most satisfactory result, we perform an act of duty only in most strongly recom. mending the use of them to the public at large. This we feel the more confidence in doing, knowing that under any circumstances they cannot do harm and our conscientious belief is, that they .,nnot i,e takenby anv person without doing hitn good."— Corn- wall (Van Vieman's Land) Gazette, Dec. 23rd, 1844.

They adapt themselves over the most tender gums or remaining stumps, without causing the least pain, rendering the operation of extracting quite unnecessary. They are so fixed as to fasten any loose teeth where the gums have shrunk, from the use of calomel. or other causes. They also beg to invite those not liking to undergo any painful opera tioo.as practised by most members of the profession, to inspec- their painless, yet effective, system and in order that their im- provements may be within the reach of the most economical, they will continue the same mode-aie charges.

Owen Thomas, Wesleyan Minister, Holyhead. October 9, 1U45- Dear Sir,-Dr. Locock's Wafers do a great deal of good to my voice. I got a bad cold, from a damp bed. about 35 years ago, and my voice was very bad ever since; being great pain to me when preaching or singing-and I am very fond of singing. I used many different medicines, and some of them do good for a little time, but Dr. Locock's is the best of all—:t clears my voice and stops tbe coughing instantly, 1 have never found anything yet to compare with them. I have been 33 years a Wesleyan Preacher, and'all the Wes- cyan Methodists in the Principality knew me, (20 years of which I have lived in Holyhead), and I am known personally to all the first men of that body, many of whom have admired the effects of the wafers in clearing the voice, and stopping the cough, —they never got such a medicine before. My wife ever since Christmas, has been very well, after taking two boxes. I am a witness of their power to stop a frightful it of coughing in an instant. I, as a Wesleyan Preacher, call upon all preachers and singers of every denomination to take these wafers, for improving the voice and curing coughs. You may publish my testimonial for the excellent wafers, if you wish.—-I am, yours truly, OWEN THOMAS, Wesleyan Minister. ANOTHER ceRE or TWENTY YEARS' ASTHMA. Extract of a letter fro m M.

If any person would ?est or himself the truth of these remarks, he has only to observe j the action of quick-silver: when placed in contact with pure gold or silver, it combines with the pore metals, and ultimately renders them as brittle as pewter. This result will explain the cause of the numerous accidents aiising from the ilightest blow or,fall, whenplates of silver, chased and worked at immense expence, are brokeiMnto pieces like glass; the fragments being considera- bly less valuable than the unwrought metal, until by a difficult and tedious process the silver is repurified. But this is not the one evil arising from the amalgamation of quicksilver with the puremetal. Persons ignorant of the laws of chemistry have en- couraged the use of corrosive Plate Powders, for giving a bril. liant polish to silver; whereas the silver is not at all polished, the surface being only covered with a coating of quicksilver, which, from its great affinity for oxygen will remain brilliant only for an hour; and, consequently, before the article poluhcd can be again used, will requiie another rug or filing away ofplate this corroded surface, to be replaced by a Ibbinlayer of thequick- silvei, until layer after layer of the purere*h al is taken away, gradually reducing it to a thin and paltry met, fitting it only (or the crucible of the silver smith. In large establishments, where plate in considerable quantity is cleaned, it is customary for persons to purchase the old rags, or wash-leather, which have been used for cleaning plate, in order to sell them to silver or gold refiners, who derive no inconsidera. ble profit from the pure metal contained in these dirty leathers or rags. Plate may be Cleaned daily with this Compound, ani at the expirauon of twelve months, will be found not to have lost a grain of its original weight! 6 It is of little consequence whether the article to be cleaned has been laid by for days or years, whether it be only discoloured, or tarnished a* blaclr as a hat; immediately on tbe application of the J ANIC CREAM, the discolouration is re- moved, and then, with a soft and clean wash-leather, a most brilliant and virgin-white polish may be produced. In chased silver. the deepest nook and corner, where dirt and corrosion are so difficult to remove, become equally polished with the level surtace, by simply using a soft plate brush. The mauner of using it is so simple that a child may, in a few seconds, produce a polish which, in the ordinary way, could not be Riven by an experienced plate-cleaner ir is many hours. o e ln l'int' f>mt' aud Quart buttles, at Is. 6d.. j* oa., &4s., and Sample Bottles at 9d. each, by all respectable Chemists, Silver-smiths, and Ironmongers.

Encouraged by thisextraordinary cure, Dr. Kay continued to prescribe it tor other patients in similar cases, and with the same success. Dr. Bardsley, also, when treating of chronic rheumatism a Ing observes, Imnstanees, when every other means have faliled: Cod Liver Oil has operated in a manner, so decidedly beneficial' as to excite astonishment." The circumstances under which this specific remedy is found most advantageous, are the fottowiag :-lst.

Tins patient was wanted of a bleachy whiteness, and had lost all hope of relief, although originally of a strong and robust constitution. The use of the Oil daily, was soon followed by a beneficial result, and after some time she was restored to a tolerable state of health.
