IMPROVED AND SUPERIOR MANNER,
combining durability, beauty, ease and comfort in wearing, and which for per- fect resemblance to the Natural Teeth are unsurpassed. All operations on the Teeth and Mouth performed in the best and most skilful manner, on reasonable terms.
The public are invited to call and examine the superiority of the Specimens of Plate-work, equal to which, all his work is warranted, before ordering elsewhere.

YERCER & ORD,
PATENTEES AND MANUFACTURERS
OF THE
METALLIC SKELETON LEG,
AND
IMPROVED ANATOMICAL MACHINERY
FOR THE
Treatment of Deformities.
The Metallic Skeleton Limb is light, neat, strong and durable, it is constructed of steel ribs and rings, or bands, united together upon the principle of a lattice bridge or arch, one piece bracing and sustaining the other, rendering it capable of bearing any required weight ; the socket or receptacle of the stump being open below, allows a free circulation of air, keeping it always cool and healthy, thereby preventing ulceration, which is almost invariably the consequence when the stump is confined in air tight sockets.
The motions of the knee and ankle joints approach so near nature as to render it almost impossible to dis- tinguish it from the natural limb, and it can be adapted to every form of amputation, and worn without the least difficulty.
No stronger proof can be given of its superiority than the fact that it has been examined and approved of by a large number of scientific medical gentlemen, among whom we mention Dr. Paul B. Goddard, Professor of Anatomy in the Franklin Medical College, Philadelphia : Dr. J. Pancoast, Professor of Anatomy in the Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia ; and Dr. John H. B. M'Clellan, Surgeon to St. Joseph's Hospital, Philadel- phia.
Dr. Valentine Mott, Professor of Surgery in the New York University ; Dr. Willard Parker, Professor of Surgery in the New York College of Physicians and Surgeons ; Dr. Abr'm. L. Cox, Professor of Surgery in the New York Medical College ; and Dr. J. Kearny Rodgers, Surgeon to the New York Hospital.
Improved Anatomical Machinery for the Treatment of FRACTURED OR WEAK ANKLES. CLUB FOOT, KNOCK KNEES, BOW LEGS, CONTRACTED LIMBS, SPINAL DISTORTIONS, &c., &c., all of which are upon entire new principles, superior to any introduced in this country. THREE SILVER MEDALS have been awarded at the late Exhibitions in Boston, New York and Philadelphia, for the above inventions.
Every information in reference to the Metallic Leg, Ankle Supporter, and Instruments for Deformity, will be given, on application personally, or by letter (post paid) to No. 7, Phoenix Block, South-West corner of Second and Dock Streets, Philadelphia.
