AN INFALLIBLE HAIR DYE.
ROWLANDS' MELACOMIA, the most suc-
cessful liquid preparation ever known in this or anyother
country for dyeing the hair of the head, whiskers, mustachios, and
eyebrows a natural and permanent brown or black, so exactly re-
sembling the natural colour of the hair as to defy detection. It is
perfectly innocent in its nature, is free from unpleasant smell, and
can be used by any lady or gentleman with the greatest ease and
secrecy. Its effects are so permanent,:that neither water nor perspi-
ration will influence them ; and it is entirely free from these properties
(usual in hair dyes) which give au unnatural red or purple tint to the
hair. Price ss.

DESTITUTION AND SICKNESS.
The affluent and benevolent arc earnestly solicited to aid the
efforts now making by the Managing Committee of the ROYAL
FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's Inn-road, a charity established for the
relief of the foreigner, the stranger, the friendless, and the outcast,
when in sickness or disease, who are here received so far as the
means of the Institution will permit.
Neither patronage nor letters of recommendation are necessary ;
were it otherwise, the wretched beings for whose benefit the Institu-
tion is intended would not know how or where to obtlin them, and
while seeking for the means of admission would, in all probability,
perish unhee.'• 1 and unknown; a melancholy instance of which
kind gave rise to the founding of this charity.
A large debt, which is now gradually being reduced, still encum-
bers the operations of the Committee, but confiding in the sprit
and benevolence of an English public, in support of such a
charity, they fearlessly continue their efforts to meet the urgent
appeals daily made at their gates by the most miserable and wretched
of the human race.
Contributions received by the Treasurer, Jno. Masterman, Esq.,
M.P., Nicholas-land ; also by Messrs. Coutts and Co.: Drummond
and Co.; Berries and Co.;• Ransom and Co.; Prescott, Grote, and
