TO LADIES.
The high and universal celebrity which
ROWLAND S' KALYDOR
continues to maintain as an active, yet mild and soothing ex-
tirpator of all impurities of the skin, is during the period of spring,
most pleasingly evinced. This preparation, . eminently blisamic,
restorative, aril invigorating, Is equally distinguished for safety in
application, as for unfailing efficacy in eradicating all redness, tan,
pimples, spots,' freckles, discolourations, and Other cutaneous visita-
tions. The radiant bloom it imp,rts to the cheek, and the softness
and delicacy which it induces in the hands and arms, render it indis-
pensable to every toilet.
Gentlemen, after shaving, will find it any all irritation and ten-
derness of the skin, and render it soft, smooth, and pleasant. Its
purifying and refreshing roperties have obtained its exclus ve
,election by her 3lajesty the Queen, the Court, and the Loyal
Fatuily of Great lltain, and the several Courts of Europe.

mineral a,tringents utterly ruinous to the complexion, and by their

TO VIE LADIES.
This lady had the following letter Inserted in the " Times" news.
.caper on Aug. 7, 1446. Reader, remember, this letter was, put hat
'.he paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
" ➢irs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor-
unity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstoxe, of the Herbary, High-
;ate to the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair on her head, after using ltabout four months,
and the whole of her hair's much stronger and more luxuriant than
I ever was before the baldness appeared.
. _

Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to7the virtues of Mr. (s.'s
ttegenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
in I is. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
,erience. not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund-
mce, but as a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet perfume itl far
)eyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any
lady of respectability to the abovefact .-3, Swan-street, Borough."
In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, ate w
crops on the crown of the bead occasionally, every week, will pre-
vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and
,recent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A
few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
flair brilliancy, causing it to curl.
The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the
mast aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing
)(lour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion
to tho toilet. In cases of nevous headache, peur ten or twelve drops
on the crown of the head; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an
flour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces
hair on children's heads in a few appplications. It used on infants'
heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre-
vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See
osraphlet of testimonials.
Allletter. addressed to William Grimstone. Herbarv. Highgate.

THE DAY OP THE DERBY.
A Dr= FOE THE DOWNS.
Blame not my admiration, when I say,
I love the pleasures of a Derby Day ;
For pleasing is the scene which yearly crowns
The ver!ant slopes of Ep-om's far-famed Downs.
The dawning of the day is ushered in
With animating stir and welcome din ;
And many a face with stalling gladness shows
That many a breast with sporting ardour glows.
This season is a holiday in which
The young and old partake—the poor and rich.
The road-side inns throuthout the exciting day,
A scene of glad activity display ;
While loaded vehicles from neighbouring towns
Convey their thousands to the busy Downs.
Blame not my admiration when I say
I love the pleasures of a Derby Day.
Is there not much to notice and admire
In multitudes adorned with choice attire.
On this glad day the crowded race-course shows
The choicest specimens of summer clothes.
Moses and Son are seen in every track,
Arid I hid nearly said on every back ;
And such attractions would alone repay
A trip to Epsom on the Derby Day.
lf, reader, you have never chanced to view
What Moses' Dress Establishment can do.
A visit to the Epsom Downs will show
What vast improvements to this Mart we owe.
Thee you will see the new Spring Wrappers worn,
With every beauty that can well adorn ;
And dress-coats, sporting-coats, and frock-coats too,
And vests and trousers elegant to view ;
While well-shod feet as well as well-decked crowns,
Contribute to the scene on Epsom DE
And render Moses with their choice display,
Successful winners on the Derby Day.
