The erraordinary efficacy, and happy amalgamation of it
purely exotic materials, hsve rendered it justly renowned through-
out the world for its remarkable virtues in nourishing, preserving,
and beautifying the Human Hair. It insinuates its balsamic
properties into the pores of the bead, nourishes the Hair In its
embryo state, accelerates its growth, cleanses it from Scurf and
Dandruff, sustains it in maturity, and continues its pos-
session of healthy vigour, silky softness, and luxurious redun-
dancy, to the latest period of human life. Its operation in cases
of baldness is peculiarly active ; so that, in numerous instances
wherein other remedies have been tried in vain, ROWLANDS'

stating, in full plenitude, the permanent gifts and graces of
nature. In the growth of Whiskers, Eyebrows, and Mus-
tachios, it is also unfailing in its stimulative operation. For children
it is especially recommended, as forming the basis of a beautiful
head of hair, and rendering the use of the fine-comb unnecessary.

timonials constantly received of its efficacy, afford the best and
surest proofs of its merits.—Price 3s. Gd. and 75.; or Family Bottles

TO MR. PROUT, 229, STRAND.
" No. 208, Piccadilly, London, October 19, 1847.
" Sir,—lt is now three and a half years since I was sorely afflicted
with Rheumatic Gout, the suffering from which induced roe to try
all the proposed remedies that extensive medical experience could
devise, without ebtaining any satisfactory relief from pain. During
ene of the paroxysms a friend advised me to try BLAIR'S GOUT
and RHEUMATIC PILLS, observing that he had in some severe
cases taken them himself, and they proved very successful. I in-
stantly adopted his advice, and to my joy the excruciating torment
soon be,,an to abate, and a ,few boxes restored me to health, since
which i'have had no return of the complaint.

" I trust you wiligive publicity to my case, that suffering humanity
may know how to obtain a remedy fer this distressing disease.
" I am, Sir, your obedient humble servant,
_." MICHAEL NASMYTIL"
