ΑΜΒΟΥΝΑ ΤOOTH POWDER, for cleansing, beau

tifying, and preserving the teeth. This powder is as pleasant in the application as it is excellent in its effects; it speedily renders the teeth white and smooth; it fortifies the enamel, and prevents the accumulation of tartar: and even where the enamel has been impaired by the application of pernicious dentifrice, or by any other means, it will renovate it in a manner to be credited only by those who experience or witness its efficacy: it prevents those teeth which are already partly decayed from becoming worse, and cleanses, beautifies, and preserves those that are sound; it imparts to the breath the most delightful fragrance, and to the gums that florid redness which indicates a healthy

state.

The AMBOYNA LOTION is a concentrated preparation, and contains all the desirable qualities of, and is particularly recommended to be used with, the Powder, when the teeth or gums are in a bad state, namely spongy, sore, or apt to bleed, symptoms which proceed from scurvy, and which this Lotion will never fail to remedy. None are genuine which have not engraved on the Government Stamp, "Evan Edwards, 67, St. Paul's." The Powder in boxes at 2s. 6d. each; the Lotion 4s. 6d. per bottle. Sold by E. Edwards, 67, St. Paul's Church-yard; Smyth and Nephew, New Bond-street; Sanger, 150, Oxford-street; and White, 24, Cornhill, opposite the Royal Exchange.
