ROWLANDS' MACASSAR OIL.
It may with truth be averred, that ROWLANDS' MAC AS
SAR OIL has enjoyed an extent of patronage and public favour dur-
ing the last half century which is totally unexampled in the annals
of felicitous discovery. The extraordinary efficacy,
and happy amal-
gamation of its purely exotic materials, have rendered it justly re-
nowned throughout the world for its remarkable virtues in nourish-
ing, preserving, and beautifying the Human Hair. It insinuates
its balsamic properties into the pores of the head, nourishes the Hair
in Its embryo state, cleanses it from scurf and dandruff, accelerates
its growth, sustains it in maturity, and continues its possessioi of
healthy vigour, silky softness, and luxurious redundancy to the latest
period of human life. In the growth of Whiskers, Eyebrows, and
Mustache's, it is also unfailing in its stimulative operations. For Chil-
dren it is especially recommended, as forming the basis of a Beau-
tiful Head of Hair, and rendering the use of the fine comb unne-
cessary.

Its Invaluable properties have obtained the especial Patronage of
her Majesty the Queen, the Court, and the whole of the Royal Family
of Great Britain, and of every Court of the civilised world ; and the
high esteem in which it is universally held, together with numerous
Testimonials constantly received of its eflioacy, afford the best and
surest proofs of its merits.

Price 3s. 6d. and 7s. ; or Family Bottles (equal to four small) at
les. 6d., and double that size, 21s.

M One half the wend are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense el right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
sitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
tlomprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
end social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour end justice demand that health should form an item
in the compact ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, it
these surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little
MEMOIRS 'On Single and Married Life," pub. in 2 vols., Is.
each (by cost, in stamps, Is. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively
refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
oy inieinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining
them. They are not intended certainly for mere Idle eitrioeity, but
for the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on
:he above subjects, by unqualified authors, whieh alone or
'ogether, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
ittle publications claim your attention (same price is. each,
by post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
avoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely
pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's
life, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
iervanee of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he
would be done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always
in the "sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of

nointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when
ithe traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused .the nrolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
,he nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the kuinan frame,
titan any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the ReproducHvo Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preservation of the health,
and of the physical. capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. it unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired
fit early life or from, the follies of advanced age, while suffering
front their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plying to a qualVied physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, lint erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination. n ascertaining the causes of
iisease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterisa the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who, can show by his possession of the requisite legal
malifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has. obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
eertify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
guarantee for his professional experienee, which has reference almost
solely to the '.l-catnient of these diseases.
