FOR PROMOTING AND PRESERVING THE HAIR. rl - 'HE ROYAL FAMILY, and Ladies and Gen. tlemen of Distinction and Fashion, use RUSSIA OIL, for moistening the hair wizen dressing, which is so great a nourishes to the hair as to prevent it turning grey to all periods; promotes the growth, makes the hair grow thick and long, prevents its falling off, and restores it on bald places if the least roots remain. Seve ral Gentlemen that were bald, have declared, after using the Au,. sia Oil regularly for six months, the bald places became nearly cos ered with hair ; promutes eyebrows, whiskers, and prevents them turning grey. Ladies and Gentlemen, who wear false hair, will tied the Rus sia OIL a valuable article to use when dressing, as it gives it a na. tural gloss. It is generally remarked of persons wearing false hair, that after a short time wearing it becomes dry and stiff, and is easily discovered—by using the Russia Oil it prevents its being discovered, as it keeps the hair sort, and renders its appearance natural. Ladies and Gentlemen who wish to preserve their hair should refrain the use of perfumed Oils, as the acid of the perfume causes dryness to the hair, occasions it to fall off, change; and became grey at an early age. The Russia Oil is pleasant to use, warranted innocent, ano a sure nourisher and preserver to the hair. The highlvputation the Russia Oil has gained for preserving and promoting the hair, and the great demand for it, has induced lately envious persons to copy the advertisement, and advertise articles for the similar purpose which have not the effect; it is particularly recommended to observe, the label en the outside wrapper of each bottle is signed in Russian gold Ink , " Mochri kufsky and Prince ;" any without that signature are c.ninterfelts. Ladies and Gentlemen wishing to benefit from the I lassie Oil, should use it for a short time regularly, as it 'aunt* be expected to have the desired effect if only applied at intervals. Price 7s. per bottle, or one bottle containing tour small, at one guinea, or six guinea bottles at five pounds. Sold wholesale and retail by the Propriettr, A.
