ADVERTISEMENTS INSERTED IN ALL THE LONDON

and PERIODICALS.
And by Appointment to the
Royal Society,

The following are the Terms upon which we transact our business as General Advertising Agents:—
1. Our best attention is given to any Commission placed in our hands; our long connexion with the Press enables us to assure our Clients of that discrimination so essential to the interest of Advertisers.
2. We offer the facility of one account instead of many, and we guarantee that all Advertisements charged are duly inserted.
3. The charges made to Advertisers for the transaction of their business will in no case exceed the sum demanded by each Journal as when the Advertiser, with cash in hand, presents an Advertisement at the Office direct.
It is the practice of Newspaper Proprietors to allow a moderate Commission to respectable Advertising Agents. This Commission we have determined shall suffice as our Profit. In the case of The Times, no Commission is allowed; the charge, however, for insertion in this Journal will not be increased.

JAMES MELDRUM, 13, YORK STREET,
COVENT GARDEN.
MR. HOWARD, Surgeon Dentist, 52, Fleet Street, has introduced an entirely new description of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the originals by the closest observer. They will never change colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed teeth stopped, and rendered sound and useful in mastication.

VICE-CHANCELLOR WOOD stated that Dr. J. Collis Browne was undoubtedly the Inventor of Chlorodyne. Eminent hospital Physicians of London stated that Dr. J. Collis Browne was the discoverer of Chlorodyne; that they prescribe it largely, and mean no other than Dr. Browne's.—See Times, July 13, 1864. The public, therefore, are cautioned against using any other than Dr. J. COLLIS BROWNE'S CHLORODYNE.
THIS INVALUABLE REMEDY produces quiet, refreshing sleep, relieves pain, calms the system, restores the deranged functions, and stimulates healthy action of the secretions of the body.
From J. M'Grigor Croft, M.D., M.R.C. Physicians, London, late Staff-Surgeon to H.M.F.
"After prescribing Dr. J. Collis Browne's Chlorodyne, for the last three years, in severe cases of Neuralgia and Tic Doloreux, I feel that I am in a position to testify to its valuable effects. Really in some cases it acted as a charm, when all other means had failed. Without being asked for this report, I must come forward and state my candid opinion that it is a most valuable medicine."
From Jno. E. Goulstone, M.D., Knighton.
"I can confidently state that Chlorodyne is an admirable Sedative and Anti-Spasmodic, having used it in Neuralgia, Hysteria, Asthma, and Consumption, with remarkably favourable results. It relieved a fit of Asthma in four minutes, where the patient had suffered eleven years in a most distressing manner, no previous remedy having had so immediate and beneficial an effect."

Notes on Joe Miller From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Joe Miller (Joseph or Josias) (1684-August 15, 1738) was an English actor, who first appeared in the cast of Sir Robert Howard's Committee at Drury Lane in 1709 as Teague. Trinculo in The Tempest, the First Grave-digger in Hamlet and Marplot in Susanna Centlivre's The Busybody, were among his many favourite parts. He is said to have been a friend of Hogarth.
He frequented the "Black Jack" tavern on Portsmouth Street in London, which was a favourite of the Drury Lane players and those from Lincoln's Inn Fields. Allegedly he was very serious in the bar and this led to an in-joke whereby all his companions ascribed all new jokes to him.
After Miller's death, John Mottley (1692-1750) brought out a book called Joe Miller's Jests, or the Wit's Vade-Mecum (1739), published under the pseudonym of Elijah Jenkins Esq. at the price of one shilling. This was a collection of contemporary and ancient coarse witticisms, only three of which are told of Miller. This first edition was a thin pamphlet of 247 numbered jokes. This ran to three editions in its first year.
Owing to the quality of the jokes in Mottley's book, their number increasing with each of the many subsequent editions, any time-worn jest came to be called "a Joe Miller", a Joe-Millerism, or simply a Millerism.
