Personal ' Ornament !---A highly-interesting work migbtbe composed on the various and dissimilar modes .of Personal Embellishment practised amo g different nations, and the chapter devoted to the Teeih could not but prove one of tbe mosr attractive in the volume. Among many savage na<* tions, tbe practice is well known to prevail of dy - ing the teeth black, which is esteemed a high degiee of ornament; while, on the contrary, our hair Beauties relying on nature for their attractions, seek only to preserve the charms which she has so richly bestowed on them, and endeavour simply to preserve the white and pearly character of the Teeth. Among the vniious means suggesied for tin object, we would selectthe celebrated ‘ ODONTO prepared by Messrs. Rowland, of London, as the most admirable and perfect Dentifrice yet subiuitt* d to tbe Public.—See Advertisement.
