APRINCE, the Original Proprietor of the . RUSSIA OIL, is constantly receiving information that Impostors are travelling the country with counterfeit RUSSIA OIL, and, to deceive Shopkeepers and others, have made the covers of their counterfeits exactly like PRINCE'S; and even printed on the coven, Prince's Russia Oil;" and copy Mr. Prince's Affidavit. made before the Lord Mayor of London, and to deceive Perfumers, Medicine Venders, and other., in the country. say they are Partners or Travellers of Mr. Prince : he begs to caution Perfumers and Medicine Venders against pur chasing. Ilussia Oil from the impostor who travels the country. Mr. Prince having neither Partner nor Traveller. recommends Petfutne s, Medicine 'Venders, and others in the country, to have the Russia Oil from a .ntapectable Wholesale Perfumer or Me dicine Vender whom they deal with in London. they will be certain of not being deceived, a% the principal Wholesale Per. hunters and Medicine Venders in London are Agents for selling PRINCE'. celebrated RUSSIA 01 L. Shopkeepers ought to be particularly on their guard, not to buy counterfeit Russia Oil, as Mr. Prince has had the opinion of Counsel, who informs him that if any one sell. Russia Oil. with •• Prince" on the wrapper, that is nor Prince's. subject them selves to an Injunction is the Court of Chancery, the same as was granted to DAY AND MARTIN. In short, PRINCE's CELEBRATED RUSSIA 011. is so itnptoved with an extra %skiable ingredient, through which it has made the RUSSIA OIL the greatest nourisher and preserver to the Hair in the Universe, will make it grow thick and long, and prevent its filling off or ever turning . grey ; and is such a nourisher to the roots of the Hair. that it n even has begun to turn grey, it will restore it again to its natural colour, and if used often. it will never turn grey again, and Is sure to clear the scurf, lions infancy to old age, and will always keep the Head and Hair clean and beautiful. Gentlemen who have lost their Hair. and have the least sign of roots of Hair remaining, by us:ng regularly fur a few months PRINCE'S IMPROVED ' RUSSIA OIL, with the extra valuable ingredient, will be sure to restore it. and proiuce a lime Head of Ilan, which hundreds have experienced. • Even Medical Gentlemen have published. in the Gazette of Health, that Prince's Russia Oil is superior to any Oil for the hair, and will do, in eases of baldness or weak hair. what can possibly be done.—Ladies will find Prince's Russia Oil preferable to any other Oil fur dressing their own, or false hair, as it git . ree it a natural glees, softens and curls. is. Gentlemen wearing powder ought to use it instead of pomatum ; it promotes Eye brows. Whiskers, &e. and through the extra ingredient it will now always keep pleasant, even in all climates. Proved by affidavit, the 24th of November. 11114, before the Lord Mayor of London. that A. PRINCE is the Original Propri etor in the 'Universe of the Russia Oil; and therefore if any Perfumer, Medicine Vender, Hair Drawee. or any one else. seU Russia CEI, that is nut Prime's, they araimperstors.mithsf sell counterfeits to their customers.
