PIANO-FORTE TUNING.

At the suggestion of many of his Customers, W. R. takes this
mode of intimating, and submitting for approval, a Scale of
Charges for Tuning Piano-fortes by the Year.
That Piano-fortes be Tuned by a competent rerson, at regular
intervals, is of importance even in the case of an indifferent in-
strument, but it is indispensably requisite where the preservation,
or otherwise, of a really good one is involved.
The frequently-expressed satisfaction of those Ladies who have
done W. R. the honour to try this system, is the best recommen-
dation in its favour.

CHRISTMAS E
YEAR'S
AND NEW

The exuberance of the feelings am!ii scenes of gaiety induces
the fair and youthful to shine to advantage under the gaze of
many friends, and therefore to devote increased attention to the
duties of the Toilet. It is at this festive season that

ROWLANDS' AUXILIA
RIES OF HEALTH AND
BEAUTY

are more than usnaily essential for preserving the Hair in all its
decorative chailn, the Skin and Complexion transparent and
blooming, and the Teeth ►n their pearl•like lustre.

by rank and fashion, and the universally-kno►vn ef►cacy of these
articles give them a celebrity unparalleled, and render them
peculiarly ELEGANT AND SEASONABLE PRESENTS.

ROWLANDS' MACASSAR OIL
Is a delightfully fragrant and transparent preparation for the
Hair, and as an invigorator and purifier beyond all precedent. In
dressing the Hair nothing can equal its effect; rendering it so

scendent lustre, and sustaining it in decorative charm during the
heated atmosphere of crowded assemblies. Price 3s. 6d., 7s. ;

timable qualities, the radiant bloom it imparts to the Cheek, the
softness and delicacy which it induces of the Hands and Arms,

Defects, Discolorations, and all unsightly appearances, render it
indispensable to every Toilet. During the frost and bleak winds
of winter, and in cases of Chilblains, Chapped Skin, and inci-
dental Irritation, its virtues are universally acknowledged.—
