A. LEWANDO,


Respectfully informs the Ladies and Gentlemen of Boston and vicinity, from the long study and practical experience that he has obtained in his native country, and throughout Europe, in the art of Chemistry and Color- ing, that he can produce superior and fast colors, and his mode of prepar- ing goods for coloring is such that the fabric will in all cases, retain its for- mer strength and lively virtue, and in no instance will it assume that dull and decayed look unavoidably produced by dyers in this country.


The public are also informed that this establishment, managed by expe- rienced workmen, will give particular attention to the


DYEING AND REFINISHING


In a very superior manner of all kinds of Goods-such as Silks, Satins, Velvets in particular, Merinos, Thibets, Cashmere and Crape Shawls, Can- ton and Italian Crapes, Gimps, Fringes, Curtains, Piano and Table Covers, Hosiery, &c. &c.


He is also the inventor of a New Steam Process, far surpassing anything yet offered to the public, for cleansing [all made up] all kinds of Ladies' and Gentlemen's Dresses and Garments, made of Silk, Velvet or Woolen, Plain or Embroidered, without taking to pieces, leaving all the Velvet and Silk Trimming on, and without Shrinking.


He also prides himself upon his skill in Coloring, Cleansing and Curling Feathers, so as to give them a life-like and graceful appearance. In this particular. he has yet met with no competitor.


Ladies will please remember that his prices are as low as is often paid for inferior work.

New Matchless Stove


The subscribers invite the public to an exami- nation of the new Matchless Cook Stove, confident that it combines many new and useful improve- ments not before jutroduced, thus giving it a decided advantage over all other stoves, not only as a quick and even baker, but as an Economizer of Fuel.


The Fire Chamber is certainly as convenient and economically arranged as mechanism can pro- duce, having an elliptic front, which gives the best formed Fire-chamber to burn coal in; it also makes it much moredurable as well as economical.


Particular attention is invited to the perfect manner in which it is constructed. Every door and joint is fitted with minute exactness. The Iron of which it is composed is selected with great care, ai- lowing nothing to be used but the very best thus producing castings of superior beauty, that will not crack, and which will stand the action of the fire nich longer than the ordinary stove iron.
