CULTIVATION

OF THE

PERSONAL GRACES,

Through the medium of the toilet, though seldom acknowledged to be a subject entitled to serious consideration, is, nevertheless, exercising important effects upon Society; and of this but few are really insensible; for, in truth, an absence of due attention devoted to sustaining the unrivalled attractions which adorn our Drawing-rooms (whether in the splendid assemblages of rank, incident to the immediate presence of Royalty, or in no less fascinating displays which form the great charm of private Circles,) would speedily become apparent, in an abatement of those delightful influences which impel a rapid development of the best feelings of our nature, and have concurred in raising our Domestic Elegancies to an envied perfection unknown to other countries.

In connexion with these cursory remarks, it is pleasing to be able to refer, with confidence, to the following celebrated preparations, each of infallible attributes in their operation upon the HAIR, SKIN, and TEETH,

ROWLAND'S

MACASSAR OIL

Has chiefly acquired celebrity for its truly extraordinary efficacy and fecundity in nourishing, preserving, and beautifying the Human Hair. Its regenerative powers, in particular, are constantly shown, by inducing a fresh growth of Hair, where Baldness has been supposed to have taken up its barren reign. It imparts an additional vigour to the roots of the hair, together with a glossy brightness, and a beautiful tendency to curl. For inducing an accelerated growth of Whiskers or Moustache, the MACASSAR is unfailing in its stimulative operation. In reference even to the Hair of early childhood, the use of the Oil is found attended with the happiest effects. Mild, invigorating, stimulative, and purifying, in every instance, it materially assists in dispelling scurf or dandriff, and renders supererogatory the use of the fine comb.

Caution. On purchasing, be particular to ask for "ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL,” and observe their Name and Address, in red, on the Wrapper, thus,

A. ROWLAND & SON, 20, Hatton Garden, London, Counter-signed, ALEX. ROWLAND. On the back of the Label are the words "Rowland's Macassar Oil," written nearly 1,500 times, containing 29,028 letters.

The LOWEST PRICE is 3s. 6d.—the next 7s.-or Family Bottles (containing 4 small) at 10s. 6d. and double that size, 21s. per Bottle.

ROWLAND'S KALYDOR

May be justly said to exhibit the most pleasing results, as an unfailing Conservator of the Skin. By its mild and soothing operation upon the pores of the skin, it renders wholly innoxious the bleak winds of winter-so apt to disfigure with cutaneous inflammation the delicacy of the Hands and Face in such cases, it affords immediate and soothing relief, and, unvarying in the mildness and certainty of its action, it purifies the Skin of all the grosser secretions, until it renders it of an almost transparent fairness, tinged with a juvenile bloom. GENTLEMEN, liable to cuticular redness and irritability in SHAVING, will find the Kalydor, after a single trial, a welcome addition to the toilet table. Price 4s. 6d. and 8s. 6d. per Bottle.

ROWLAND'S ODONTO,

OR, PEARL DENTIFRICE.

This is an efficient White Powder for the Teeth, solely prepared from Oriental Herbs of sovereign virtue, for strengthening, preserving, and thoroughly cleansing the Teeth. Mild and innoxious, it effectually expels all tartar and concretions formed on the Teeth, and renders them of a dazzling whiteness! purifying and disinfecting, it eradicates scurvy from the Gums, and renders them of a healthy red,-at the same time is peculiarly felicitous in imparting fragrance to the Breath, and will eventually realize that great desideratum, A BEAUTIFUL SET OF WHITE TEETH.

Price 2s. 9d. per Box, duty included.

Notice.-A. ROWLAND & SON, 20, HATTON GARDEN, are engraved on the Government Stamp affixed on the two latter articles; also printed, in red, on the Wrapper in which the KALYDOR is enclosed.

Many Shop-keepers offer for sale counterfeits of the above, composed of the most pernicious ingredients. They call their trash the "GENUINE," and sign A. RowlandSon, omitting the "&" commend them as being cheap.-Be sure to ask for "Rowland's."

Sold by them, and by respectable PERFUMERS and MEDICINE VEnders.
