TO THE LADIES.
This lady had the following letter inserted in the "Times" news-
paper on Aug. 7,184 G. Reader, remember, this letter was put into
the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
" Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor-
tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the ilerbary, High-
gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months,
and the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than
I ever was before the baldness appeared.
" Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s
Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
an 11 e. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund-
ance, but as a cure et nervous headache; as a toilet perfume it is far
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any
lady Of respectability to the above fact,. —3, Swan-street, Borough."
In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few
drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre-
vent the hair frcm coming away with the comb, make it strong, and
-nevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A.
few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
hair brilliancy, causing it to curl.
The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product et the
roost aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing
3dour removes headache and makes it a mest necessary companion
o the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops
the grown of the hea I ; if v •ry bad, repeat it every quarter at an
our. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces
air on children's heads in a few appplications. If used on intents'
eads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on tho brain as to pre-
vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See
pamphlet of testimonials.
